If there are no pads on my seat is the sphincter contraction okay to do or just the tongue bite?

Also, I have a list of questions I have been practicing and was curious to see if they might be what i will be facing?

Hello George

why do you dislike the anal CM so much, if there is no padding. i was planning on using that because i noticed thats really the only one that makes my HR increase.

Also on a LE control question (i guess thats the type of test they will use) ive heard the actual testing phase takes about 45 minutes, how many control questions will they throw at me during the complete test? and will there be control questions in each phase or there will only be afew in the begining of the test and that will be it for the 2nd set of questions etc etc..

thanks in advance

OK....
FIrst you say there is NO evidence or proof of countermeasure detection.

Now you say that there is a counter-countermeasure for ye 'ol sphincter method.....
Which is it?

What About the Anal Sphincter Contraction?

The first three editions of The Lie Behind the Lie Detector included constriction of the anal sphincter muscle as a physical countermeasure to be applied timely with the asking of the “control” questions. This is one of the most discussed polygraph countermeasures (Lykken, 1998; Williams 1996; Reid & Inbau, 1977), and readers may well wonder why it has been dropped from this book.

In recent years, polygraph manufacturers such as Lafayette and Axciton have begun marketing piezoelectric sensor pads that they claim aid in the detection of physical countermeasures. These pads are typically placed on the seat of the polygraph chair, and additional pads may also be placed on the armrests or beneath the subject’s feet. While no polygrapher has ever demonstrated any ability to detect the anal sphincter contraction employed as a countermeasure, even with the aid of such pads, we cannot exclude the possibility that a sphincter contraction might result in a detectable change in weight distribution over the surface of a piezoelectric sensor pad. Given this uncertainty, we believe that mental countermeasures or tongue-biting, which plainly cannot be detected by such means, are preferable.
