How do you pass a polygraph?

Answer by  Atticus (95)

What a polygraph measures is changes in pulse, breathing rate, respiration, and skin conductivity. These are all things that change involuntarily when we become emotional. Theoretically, if you were in an anxious state when establishing initial readings, the polygraph would have a harder time analyzing you.

The polygraph is not a lie detector. Understand that you are being interrogated by a human operator, who is not infallible. Control your breathing, stay calm.
