Does anyone know what standard current questions might be found on CIA and NSA "Lifestyle" employment screening polygraphs, and which questions would be treated as relevant?  

I read False +'s report, as well as No Such Author's.  It seemed like the questions along the lines of "have you ever thought about" such and such might qualify as control questions, and questions about whether you've actually done some of them might be "relevant" (although it's tough to believe anyone would actually think whether you've had sex in a different position than the Missionary would be relevant ;^)  I read recently that such extremely personal questions about sex are no longer asked.

For that matter, are they even looking for "truthfulness" on some of these questions?  Are they just trying to see how shocked you'll be?

Any information would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Hi Skeptic,

Remember that your polygrapher will go over the questions he will pose to you during the in-test (strapped into the machine) phase prior to being hooked up. Many produce them in writing and hand them to you. This is a very good time to feign being a slow reader, as you can take your time, relax, read over the questions, and do your best to categorize them.
