Title: Quick question
Post by: rkd8582 on Apr 23, 2006, 12:32 PM
When I took my polygraph, at the end of the test and after I was unkooked from everything he ask me if I was honest with him. Would this be considered post test interigation of was it juat a last chance going fishing kinda thing? He didnt say that I passed or failed he just said the the agency that I was applying to would have a report the next morning. I am not nervous because I lied about anything but because I have alot riding on wether I passed or not. any Ideas?? thanks in advance

That one question, without any accusation of deception, would not be considered a post-test interrogation. Your polygrapher was taking one final opportunity to fish for an admission.

Did you do anything special?  Or did you follow the rules and hope for the best?

I'm especially interested in if you felt the control questions caused the desired response by the polygraph person.
