Let's Start

The Polygraph Process

A polygraph examination is scheduled for no less than 90 minutes and consists of three different phases:

Pre-Test Phase

During the objective pretest interview, the examiner will obtain the examinee's consent and a release of information. The examiner will provide an overall explanation of the process, discuss any issue(s) under investigation, and develop and review all questions that may be asked on the polygraph examination. This phase is important to allow the examinee to discuss and provide information regarding the issue(s) that will be tested.

In-Test Phase

During this phase, the examiner will attach and explain the instrumentation that will be used. The examiner will review the examination questions and instructions. To resolve an issue, the examination questions should focus on a specific behavior; not on intent, knowledge, or lying about a statement. There are no unreviewed or surprise questions. The examiner will explain the importance of cooperation to ensure a successful and conclusive result. Once all questions and instructions are agreed upon by the examinee, the examination will begin and chart(s) of physiological activity are recorded for assessment.

Post-Test Phase

After the polygraph examination, the results are discussed with the examinee. This phase addresses any questions or concerns from both parties, and allows the examinee to explain any factors they believe may have influenced the outcome. This thorough discussion ensures transparency and understanding.
