I am scheduled for an upcomming poly exam.  I am fully prepared if I am administered the CQT style test; however, if i am administered a relavant/irrelavant style, i am not sure when or if to employ counter measures.  anyone have advice on countermeasures for an R/IR style test format??? thanks  Kiss

If given the relevant/irrelevant test, you want to use countermeasures to different relevent and irrelevant questions on different sets.  For example, if questions  1, 3, 5, and 7 are irrevelant and questions 2, 4, 6, and 8 are relevant you would cause a reaction (use countermeasures) on questions 1, 2, 5 and 6 on the first set or chart.  Then, on the second chart or questioning, you cause a reaction to questions 3, 4 and 7.  On the third set of questions cause a reaction to question 8 only.  You kind of mix it up so that you do not have a pattern of reaction to any particular question or questions.  Consistant, specific, significant is what the polygrapher looks for, so you do not want to give him that.  I believe that is the way TLBTLD says to do it.

Really is right.  I do not know.  My post is simply my interpertation of what I read in TLBTLD.  I do know, however, that using countermeasures properly during the CQT works.  I know because I have done it.   Grin

Never have so many polygraph believers and examiners gathered together to try to debunk something they "know" is not possible to beat. 

Never has there been a site so read by polygraph examiners to see what we're "up to" so they can better catch countermeasure's that "don't work" anyway.

Seems like a lot of concern over nothing.

I took the Poly Today.  It was a CQT format. I employed countermeasures as instructed in TTBTLD.  The poligrapher made ne assertions that he was aware of me employing counter measures. I passed the test with flying colors.  I would like to thank george and everyone else for this site, because without the valuable information here. I am certain i might not have done so well.

Another,
Did you have anything to hide on the relevant issues?

no, I have worked in law enforcement for 5 years.  I recently bought a home too far away from my work and need to find a transfer to another agency.  I have applied to a number of agencies.  I took a poly from one of these agencies in a R/IR format.  I failed the examination showing deception.  Even though you dont know me and could easily dismiss it, it was a false positive reading. This can have a seriously negative impact on my future ability to find employ with surrounding agencies. after that failure, I found this website and read the TBTLD.  I employed the counter measures as instructed.  and passed.  Thanx undesireable for your encouragement. Kiss

Another fairy tale.  I do wish you guys would use some imagination.  Same Old Shit Different Day - this is getting sad.  OK Skeptic, Orolan, Mallah, and Beechtrees, all you who are members of George's fan club can give me your 2 cents worth now.

Congratulations.  I presume that the exam you passed was a CQT format "test", instead of an R/I?  If it was an R/I too, how did you employ countermeasures?

The R/I is so inherently unreliable that I can imagine several possible strategies for "passing" one (the simplest just being staying adamant about one's innocence), but I'm curious as to what you did.

Actually, the suggestions for countermeasures to the Relevant/Irrelevant technique outlined in TLBTLD do not involve creating reactions to the irrelevant questions (which are not scored).

Congratulations on passing the polygraph! Good luck in the rest of the hiring process, and thank you for sharing your polygraph experience here.

Now that the polygraph is behind you, I hope that you'll take the opportunity to share what you've learned about polygraphy with others, especially those who might someday face a polygraph "test." See the Get Involved and Campus Poster Initiative pages for other steps you can take to help spread the word and hasten the abolishment of polygraph screening.
