INTRODUCTION
- Lie detector, also known as a polygraph
- Records physiological phenomena (blood pressure, pulse rate,
respiration) of a human subject.
- Operated during questioning to assess truthfulness
Utilised in police interrogation and investigations since 1924
- Controversial among psychologists
- Not always accepted as evidence in court
- Physiological indicators chosen are not easily controlled voluntarily
- Uses a pneumograph tube around the chest
- Utilises a blood pressure-pulse cuff on the arm
- Impulses recorded on moving graph paper driven by an electric motor

HISTORY
02
07/28/20XX
In ancient times, people
used trial by ordeal,
where accused
individuals faced
physical tests, hoping
divine intervention
would prove their
innocence. Swearing
oaths was another
method to establish
truthfulness.
Use of torture:
Interrogators employed
various forms of
physical torture to
extract confessions,
though the reliability of
such confessions was
questionable.
Ancient
Method
Renaissance
Era 18th Century
Franz Joseph Gall:
Developed phrenology,
which claimed to detect
deception based on the
bumps and contours of
the skull.
William M. Marston:
Created the systolic
blood pressure test, an
early precursor to the
modern polygraph.
Polygraph Invention:
John Augustus Larson and
Leonarde Keeler
developed the polygraph
machine, which measures
physiological responses
like heart rate,
respiration, and skin
conductance.
19th Century
Early 20th
Century
Mid 20th
Century
Rise of Polygraph
Testing: The polygraph
became widely used in
criminal investigations
and employment
screenings.
Cognitive Interviewing:
Psychological
techniques, such as
cognitive interviewing,
were developed to
enhance the accuracy of
eyewitness testimonies.
Functional MRI (fMRI)
and PET scans: These
technologies allowed
researchers to study
brain activity
associated with
deception, leading to
insights into the neural
basis of lying.
Late 20th
Century
Advances in
Neuroscience
Modern
Techniques
Computerised Voice
Analysis: Utilising
speech patterns and
voice analysis software
to detect deception.
- Eye-tracking
technology: Monitoring
eye movements and gaze
patterns to identify
signs of deception.
HOW DOES IT
WORK

POLYGRAPH OVERVIEW
A. Tool for lie detection.
B. Measures physiological
responses.
Physiological
Measurements
I. Heart rate.
II.Blood pressure.
III.Respiration.
07/28/20XX
HOW DOES IT WORK
I. Polygraph machine records multiple
signals using 4 to 6 sensors attached to
the patient's body.
II.The person's breathing rate
III.The person's pulse
IV.The person's blood pressure
V. The person's perspiration
HOW DOES IT WORK
The Nervous System reacts to different situations differently.
For this, it uses different parts of it, namely:
I. Somatic Nervous System
II. Autonomic Nervous System
a) Sympathetic Nervous Systems
•Cardiosphygmograph: collects blood pressure and heart rate data
Pneumograph : measures respiratory patterns
Galvanograph: measures electrodermal activity or sweat

POLYGRAPH
-ACCURACY
(Vrij,2008)
ACCURACY
R/I:
a Extremely poor
CQT:
● 83-89% for guilty subjects
● 53-75% for innocent subjects
● 12-47% incorrectly classified
(falsely accused of guilt)
DLT (Raskin & Honts,
2002):
● Guilty- 73-84% depending on
type of directed lie
● Innocent- 84-87%
LIMITATIONS
07
07/28/20XX
LIMITATIONS
1. Lie Detection Challenges: Imperfect accuracy despite
advancements.
1. Countermeasures: Vulnerable to manipulation, affecting
reliability.
1. False Results: Risk of labeling innocent or missing lies.
1. Ethical Issues: Privacy invasion, potential abuse.
1. Legal Dilemma: Admissibility and bias in court.
THE PRACTICAL
APPLICATIONS
08
07/28/20XX
APPLICATIONS
I. Enhancing interview and interrogation accuracy.
II.Detecting deceptive statements.
III.Streamlining evidence gathering and suspect
identification.
IV.Evaluating witness credibility and mental state.
V. Improving ethical interrogation practices.
VI.Minimizing false confessions and miscarriages of
justice.
VII.Strengthening courtroom proceedings with additional
evidence.
VIII.Ensuring a fair legal process and reducing false
accusations.
CONCLUSION
09
07/28/20XX
CONCLUSION
1. Psychology and Crime: Psychology helps us understand the motives
and behaviors behind criminal activities, informing crime prevention
and investigations.
2. Advancements in Lie Detection: Recent technological
advancements, including AI and brain imaging, have improved the
accuracy of lie detection methods.
3. Practical Applications: These advanced lie detection techniques
find practical use in criminal investigations, court proceedings, and
high-profile cases, enhancing fairness and accuracy in legal
processes.
