Batman,

You are right. The question about driving under the influence was included in the written application, and not asked during the "in-test" phase of the polygraph examination. Generally, Guest's Question #11 (Have you falsified any info on the application?) would be considered a relevant question. But if the application included questions commonly used as probable-lie "control" questions, might Question #11 have been a "control" question in Guest's case? Maybe, maybe not.

Guest,

I think it matters little whether your polygrapher had only a highschool degree or a Ph.D. in psychophysiology from an Ivy League school. Polygraph "testing" remains quackery, regardless of the education level of the quack who administers the "test."
