development of pneumograph
a. bettorio 1914
he detected deception with a pneumograph, and instrument that graphically measures the
inhalation, he demonstrated the changes of in breathing patterns by noting the changes in
respiration expiration ratio during deception.
b. harold burtt 1918
he determine the respiratory changes where the indication of deception. he found out the changes
in systolic blood pressure where of greater value in determining deception than the changes in
respiration
2. development of galvanograph
a. luigi galbani 1791
he is an Italian physiologist who was accorded the distinction for developing the galvanic skin
reflex (GSR) or galvano meter which records electrical bodily resistance in terms of ohms (the
lowest current even recorded) the GSR reflected emotional changes in persons skin resistance
through electricity
b. sticker (1897)
he made the first suggestion for using galvanograph for detecting deception based in the works
of several pre dessesors. he theorized that galvanic skin reflex
is influenced by existing mental impression and that will have no effect upon it.
c. Veraguth (1907
-he was the first one to use the term "psychogalvanic reflex". He believed that the electrical
phenomenon is due to the activity of sweat glands.
3. Development of cardio-sphymograph
a. angelo mosso (1895)
he studied fear and its influence on the heart. His observation subsequently formed the basis for
detecting lies. He also developed the sphygmomanometers and "scientific cradle", which was
designed to measure the flow of blood while a person lay on his back in a prone position.
b. cesare lombroso (1836-1909)
- he employed the first scientific instrument to detect deception, which is known a
hydrosphymograph,this instrument measures changes in pulse and blood pressure when suspects
were asked about their involvement or knowledge of specific crime.
b. john
he developed the reviewed control question
consisting of a known line incorporated into relevant/irrelevant test. the theory of the test to
stimulate
innocent subject to identify the general nervous
and guilt comples reactor and to improve contact between innocent and guilty subject. he also
discovered the guilty complex test administered to the overly responsive subject
c.
boxter conceive the psychological set theory that forms the basis of a zone comparison technique
that provide constant monitoring of the subject reactivity and design to disclose outside issue
d. daniel defoe
wrote an essay entitled "an effectual scheme" for the immediate preventing of Street robberies
and suppressing and all other disorder of the night which recommends taking of the pulse as a
method of identifying a criminal
e. richard o archer
the first polygraphist to record simultaneously or regular basis the chest and abdominal breathing
pattern. he was the first one to record simultaneously
two galvanic skin reflexes
2. allen bill
an American inventor who developed a device called psychological stress evaluator (PSE) this
instrument detect slight trembling in the voice; this maybe interpreted as a method to determine a
person is telling the truth
3. ayorbida
hindu book of health and science the earliest known reference of a method for detecting
deception which is the bases for the invention of polygraph machine
4. the observation method through facial expression
a. blushing
b. paleness
c. procused sweating of head
d. deletion of an eyes and elevation of eyelids
f. twitching of the lips
g. failure to look the inquirer straight into the eye
h. excessive activity of an adams apple
through the dryness of the throat
i. rolling of an eyeballs from one direction to another
ASSIGNMENT:
ADMISSION
CONFESSION
INTERVIEW
INTERROGATION
INTOXICATION
this method employ alcohol beverages as stimuli to obtain through. a person whos statement to
be taken is allowed to take alcohol beverage to intoxication level . the power to control the body
is diminished begins profounding investigation
POLYGRAPH
from two greek words 'polly' which many or more 'graphos' which means writing
is define as scientific deception detection with use or aim of a polygraph
polygraph is an instrument or device capable of recording bodily changes occuring in the blood
pressure/pulse rates, respiration and an electrical properties of a skin (GSR) which are indicative
of emotional excitement especially in lying when questioned
TYPES OF LIE
a. direct denial - direct denial of the act in questions that creates an emotional sense of
disturbance, disturbance refers to the conflict between what is true and attempted deception that
creates the battle of of mind
b. lie of omission - type of lie that people usually used because it is simple to tell individual who
make use of this type will tell the truth while omitting details that could create possible troubles
c. lie of publication - is the most difficult type of lie that is subject could used in an interview
d. lie of minimization- this type of lie individual will accept that something has occurred but
down place the implication this type of lies could be used in this subject wanted to stay close to
the truth however he covers the truth for his/her benefits
e. lie of exaggeration - is a lie open used to exaggerate things for the hope of obtaining some
advantage this is open found on resume applicants exaggerate his experiences, knowledge, skills
and length of service
C. TYPES OF LIAR
a. PANIC LIAR
it is one who lies in order to avoid consequences of a confession
-he/she is afraid of embarrassment to love ones and it is a serious blow to his/her ego
-he/she believes that confession will just make rhe matter worst
b. OCCUPATIONAL LIAR
-someone lied for spare years
-this person is practical liars and lies when it has a higher "pay off" that telling the truth
C. TOURNAMENT LIAR
-Loves to lie and is excited by the challenge of not being detected
-this person views an interview as another contest and wants to win
-this person realizes that he/she will probably be convicted but will not give anyone the
satisfaction of hearing him/her confession
-he wants that people will believe that the law is punishing an innocent person
D. PSYCHOPATHIC LIAR
-the most difficult type
-this person has no conscience. He show no regret for dishonesty and no manifestation of guilt
Understanding subjects, age and characteristics to further enhance the study of psychology of the
lie of person it is also necessary to understand subject
Which are as follows;
13 to 19 distinction of fantasy and reality at this level, the subject is at the age of limitation and
idolatry his/her ego may start to develop
20 -60- they serve as best witnesses they open possessed materialism, maturity and responsibility
intellect is fully developed and intelligence is well coordinated with memory
61 to death - their memories are fading because some of their senses are defective. they are no
longer good witnesses. They need perspective because they might start to act like
children(senility), they are irritable and sensitive.
SOME SIGNS OF LIES AND DECEPTION
Generally, when a person becomes defensive due to fear of detection, one can point out that any
of sign here in enumerated indicates lies, guilt or deception
Such as;
1. Stammering
2. Swearing to or before that he did not commit the crime
3. Pointing his guilt to somebody else
4. Subject refuses to answer question through alibis and excuses
5. He is at all time absent minded
6. He is always requesting for repeatation of question.
7. He open as counter question and counter queries
8. He open as permission to go to comfort room
A. The pneumograph component - a device that record respiration and what are the 3 traditional
channels of thr modern polygraph use in PDD. Most polygraphs use to pneumogrph recordings
abdominal and thoracic the sensor are the traditional convoluted rubber tube the mercury strain
gates or the newly by piezoelectric. This components record changes occuring in the respiratory
or breathing system.
1. The pneumographic tube is the corrugated stretchable rubberized tube or apparatus that is to
be attached to the subjects, chest or stomach or both. Inhalation will cause the tube to stretch and
subsequently create an upward tracing or movement of the pneumopen unto the polygraph
charts. Exhalation are the downward tracing
2. The beaded chain- is a free willing string and stainless beads with a hook with passing the
pneumograhic tube unto the subject chest and stomach
3 attachment
-The uncuffed- shall be attach to the subjects arm
-hand pump bulb causes the arm cuff to inflict in order to produce blood pressure and pulse rates
-the aneurin blood pressure metagates - measure and monitors bp readict while the polygraphic
testing is going on
The attachment of the cuff to the subject arm must be centered so we can have a normal recorded
pattern of the blood as to produce clearer and precise pressure
-finger electron's are special types of sensitive metal plates to be attached to the subject and
joints of both the index and ring fingers for the recording of the electrical charges (ohms) from
the brain through the skin
KYMOGRAPH COMPONENT
Motorized mechanism that moves strip chart paper at specified rate the current standard is six
inches per minute
CHART MARKINGS
-Is very important part of the polygraph techniques examiner the examiners may have the best
training, use the most advance method and run miles a chart of tracing yet the value of his e is
without proper markings
To facilitate evaluation, and interpretation of chart , markings is made with the use of sign and
symbol to enable the examiners to determine the following;
1. Exact time of the test commence and terminated
2. Initial and final blood pressure and galvanigraph readings
3. Particular point where each question ask started and ended. Corresponding identification of
the questions, and the type of time of answer given by the subject
4. Duration and amplitude of reaction patterns
5. Any instruction given or repetition of question made
6. Any movement, cough tracing by the suspect or outside destruction that occured
7. Mechanical adjustment or readjustment made
8. Extremeous factors affecting test chart such as
Paper jumps
9. Time interval between questions
10. Chart number, name of subject, time, date, and place taken and the name and signature of the
examiners
-The simplest method for determining changes is vertical line to the apex
Before and after question stimuli and then measure the distance through the vertical line
HIPERBENTILATON
The subject usually attempt to be
The examiner From making the interpretation from the pnuemo pattern he result to the regular
deep breathing in an attempt to beat the test. Hiperb may appear in to stimulus is which upon
from mechanism of the body. which is stores an oxygen it maybe because prolonged suppression
of the breathing such that the deficit oxygen has to be compensated when the danger has passed
Respiratory block
It is an exaggerated form of suppression in which there is usual shortening of both inspiration
and expiration stroke that appears as straight line
Respiratory block or holding a breath through/ two more than or through/ two cycle usually
indicates an attempt to beat the test.
Galvo tracing
To galvo tracing which maybe indicative of deception or vertical rise point of deception only,
double settled responses, long duration or degree of response following the point of deception
and the planging of galvanograph tracing. In most cases, the galvo tracing which is measure of
increase or decrease of the subject skin resistance, rise and falls with each stimulus.
Cardio tracing
Which takes the form of specific response and considered indication of deception
1. Increase and decrease of the blood pressure
This is easily learn by the threat of cardio tracing
An increase in blood pressure is indicative by a rise in the cardio tracing and a decrease by a fall
with every stimulus, the blood pressure tracing tend to have a slight increase and decrease of the
magnitude and duration of the rise and fall of the cardio tracing that is taken into consideration in
comparison most particularly between relevant and control questions
2. Increase in blood pressure only this indicated by a sustain rise in the blood pressure tracing
during a crucial question and return to the norm when the subject is release from that stimulus by
the introduction of a irrelevant question
3. Decrease only in a blood pressure when there is a fall of the cardio tracing or after a crucial
question from a level of small tracing a decrease in blood pressure is indicated, this necessity
make mechanical adjustment when the tracing fail to return to its former level
4. An increase or decrease pulse rate is easily recognize as the cardio pattern becomes close
together, and with the decrease of pulse rate result, the cardio pattern becomes fall apart
5. Increase nor decrease of amplitude when the cardio pattern becomes taller, there is an increase
in amplitude; a decrease in height in the pattern is a decrease of amplitude
6. Is the possession or disappearance of diacritic notes tends to change position depending upon
the blood pressure in the system too much air will have the notes up to bottom, two liter air will
place it on the top and diastolic stroke during the rise in blood pressure. The diacritic notes tends
to go top at the diastolic and upon return upon the tracing to its original level, the diacritic notes
may change its position at times of disappeared in time
7. Extra systole the premature or brenticole when the
Fundamental Of the heart is maintain cause of extra systol to appear, it is highly indicative of
deception, except when the entire carjacked tracing has it, which may indicative of carjack
trouble
Relevant question
Question Related to the subject matter under investigation
Irrelevant - not related
Control question
TEST PROCEDURE
A. The examination room
1. Lie detector test should be conducted in quite private room
2. Select a room would not the usual police surroundings would no distractions with the subject
view
3. Select a room without any windows at all
4. The interrogation should contain no ornaments, pictures, or other objects which would distract
the attention of a person being tested
5. This suggestions refers to the present within the subject which of small loose objects such as,
clips or pencil the he maybe incline to pick up and further distract during the course of
interrogation
6. noise such as ringing a telephone or the conversation of person outside the examination room,
the present of arresting officer or other spectators in the room itself, may produce disturbance
and distraction which will interfere with the satisfactory of diagnosis of deception
IMPORTANT REMINDERS;
1. Do not wait until the last minute to ask a person to take the test
2. Do not tell the subject everything but you know about the offense or about him
3. Do not fail to investigate the case before you ask a person to take the test
4. For some reason, it must temporarily taken, the investigator must continue investigating the
case
5. Do not depend or must screaming of possible suspect to produce a real or the guilty one
6. Do not tell anyone that the lie detector will be side whether one is innocent or guilty the court
will make the decision
7. If the test is indicates that the person did not tell the truth or if the person confesses after the
test do not think that the investigation is over.
3. Post test interview- the purpose of the post test interview is to obtain confession
