I am looking to review this particular variant of the control question methodology, and need to obtain as much information as possible on it.  Brief descriptions are given in the very helpful scoring DODPI scoring manual posted on this site, as well as in the handbook.  Matte's book also contains some details.

However, much better would be for me to get my hands on the following reference
"Air Force Modified General Question Test (2005). Fort Jackson, SC:  Department of Defense Polygraph Institute"

DOes anybody know whether this reference is available?

One feature of the AFMGQT that I am particularly interested in is the requirement for scoring an overall score of DI (deception indicated), namely a total of -3 on any of the vertical totals, whereas an NDI score requires +3 on each of the vertical totals.  Has anybody thought about the statistical consequences of this?

Would be most interested to discuss
