I How effective is the polygraph test?

I How effective is the polygraph test?

          The accuracy of the polygraph has been contested almost since the introduction of the device. Nearly eight decades after their invention, polygraph tests are not admissible in court._ In some countries, lie detectors are used for background checks during job interviews and during police investigations ' to extract more information from the suspect; but the results are not admissible in courts. Various studies suggest that the results could get distorted if the subject exhibits anxiety for reasons other than guilt. They can also be wrong if the person can control his or her anxiety level. In other words, a measured response can result in unreliable conclusion.

What  is holography test ? .

     A polygraph, commonly known as lie detector, is a device used to detect lies by measuring several physiological variables of the person being questioned. While taking a polygraph test, a person gets four to SIX sensors attached to his/her body. The poly- graph machine 'records multiple (hence “poly”) signals from the sensors on a single strip of moving paper (“graph”). The sensors usually record the person’s blood  pressure, heart rate, respiration and ' perspiration rate While he is asked a series of questions. The main principle behind this test is based on the ancient hypothesis of nervousness while telling a lie.

I What is brain-mapping. and how does it work?

        American scientist Lawrence Farwell is credited with developing brain mapping or brain fingerprinting technology. This system determines whether or not specific information is stored in a person’s memory. The test measures individual brain-wave responses to relevant words, pictures or sounds presented by a computer. Our brain has the capacity to store events as memories. This function of the brain is used in differentiating a criminal and an innocent person. The criminal’s brain stores the sequence of events that happens at the crime scene, an innocent man’s brain however would have no such memories. The brain fingerprinting method scientifically detects the presence or absence of specific information. Words, pictures, codes and sounds related to the crime are presented to the subject by a computer.
