Title: Re: My experience

Doug, I had NO idea what in the hell the examiner was talking about. If the examiner thought that I was using these countermeasures I am not sure why I was permitted to "pass." I wasn't subjected to any interrogation type questioning and it was all very cordial for the most part. I never felt disrespected or threatened, but when I was accused of trying to use these countermeasures, I was, admittedly offended. Doug Williams wrote on Jul 26th, 2018 at 9:13pm:

The one thing that surprised me is that I was accused of "using countermeasures." I didn't even know what countermeasures were until I looked them up after I arrived home. Before the test, I was advised to be aware of my breathing. As a result, I tried to be aware of my breathing and take even breaths during each question. After the first test, I was advised to "do myself a favor" and breathe normally. I was a little shocked as I was supposed to be "aware" of my breathing. At the end of the testing, the examiner informed me that he knew that I had deployed "countermeasures" but that I had eventually passed after ignoring my breathing patterns. To all polygraph examiners that may be reading this thread - NOT ALL applicants are using "countermeasures" especially after we are directed to be aware of our breathing. It is unfortunate that the examiner believes this about me... and that it is a matter of record at the agency (and is likely in the examiner's report). I love my country... and the allegation about the "countermeasures" simply isn't true about my exam. |
Let me just point out a couple of things how about so-called"countermeasures". The first is that polygraph examiners are paranoid about countermeasures and have been ever since I invented them in 1979. In fact, the government polygraph school has used my manual, HOW TO STING THE POLYGRAPH, to teach polygraph examiners about these countermeasures since 1985. And they still use it to this day.
Secondly, the government knows countermeasures work - in fact they admitted that they know this when they prosecuted me for teaching people how to use them to pass a polygraph test.
