Langan notes that "if a medical test had a similar sensitivity and specificity to that of the polygraph examination it would simply not be used in the field of medicine." And Zelicoff has elsewhere observed, "If we had medical tests that had the same failure rate as a polygraph, then physicians that use those tests would be convicted of malpractice."

What does Langan know!  Did he attend the 14 week polygraph course?  Does he have any experience in the industry?  Has he ever been a practicing polygrapher?

I didn't think so!

Frankly, I am highly suspect of any so-called "study" coming from outside polygraphic circles.  It lacks credibility!

For example.  Would you put much faith in a medical study done by someone other than a medical professional?  I think not!
