Title: Re: GOOD INTENTION

guest_65,

You may rest assured that you will not be "kicked out" of these forums because of your expressed views.

With regard to the countermeasure information available on this website, we have provided it to help the truthful to protect themselves against the random error associated with polygraphy, especially polygraph screening, not to help liars beat the "test." Nonetheless, it is inevitable that those who choose to lie with regard to the relevant questions in a polygraph examination may also exploit this information.

You mention that you "don't have a clue" as to polygraph theory. For a straightforward explanation, see Chapter 3 of The Lie Behind the Lie Detector. This will no doubt be of great interest to your wife, as well.

As for changing things, I invite you to work with us for polygraph reform. AntiPolygraph.org seeks the passage of a new, Comprehensive Employee Polygraph Protection Act that would have prevented your wife's employer from asking her to submit to a pseudoscientific polygraph "test." You and your wife can help by contacting your congressperson and senators and asking them to sponsor this legislative reform.
