Polygraph Procedure
What goes on in a polygraph "test?" What kinds of questions are asked in a polygraph examination? What is a "lifestyle" polygraph? How does the lie detector "work"? Just how accurate is the polygraph? Can truthful people fail? Can liars beat the polygraph? How can you protect yourself against a false positive outcome?

How can polygraphers tell the difference in results from control vs irrelevant questions??? So I understand that certain countermeasures should be used on control questions and not the irrelevant questions that that the FBI, CIA, and NSA often use in their polygraph.
