I also see form your site that they might ask me if I looked at AP.  When my friend cools off I will ask him what they asked him about AP.

Brad,

I would be interested to know what the CBP polygraph operator told your friend in this regard. CBP's "pre-test outline" for the recently adopted TES-C screening format instructs the operator to present the subject with the following spiel:


Quote:

6.      Countermeasure Statement •      Tell me what you know about Polygraph. •      Have you conducted any research on Polygraph? •      If the examinee answers “No”, let the examinee know that most information on the Internet is opinion based and often incorrect and misleading. •      Tell the examinee that they should NOT do anything to alter their polygraph examination. •      If the examinee says “Yes”, they have conducted polygraph research, ask them what information did they learn and where did they get the information. •      Again, tell the examinee that “most information on the Internet is incorrect and misleading.” •      Inform the examinee that they should NOT do anything to alter their polygraph examination.

As for any claim that the information presented here is false and misleading, note that our information is based in large part on the U.S. government's own documentation of its polygraph techniques. This forum is also open to polygraph operators, who are welcome to publicly correct any "incorrect and misleading" information they believe we present. You'll find that they're awfully silent.
