[edit] Polygraph
Lie detection commonly involves the polygraph. Voice stress analysis may also be commonly used because it can be applied covertly to monitor voice recordings. The polygraph detects changes in body functions not easily controlled by the conscious mind. This includes bodily reactions like skin conductivity and heart rate.[2]

[edit] Cognitive Polygraphy
Recent developments that permit non-invasive monitoring using functional transcranial Doppler (fTCD) technique led Njemanze to postulate that successful problem-solving employs a discrete knowledge strategy (DKS) that selects neural pathways represented in one hemisphere, while unsuccessful outcome implicates a non-discrete knowledge strategy (nDKS)[3]. A polygraphic test could be viewed as a working memory task. This suggests that the DKS model may have a correlate in mnemonic operations. In other words, DKS model may have a discrete knowledge base (DKB) of essential components needed for task resolution, while for nDKS, DKB is absent and, hence, a “global” or bi-hemispheric search occurs. Based on the latter premise, a ‘lie detector’ system was designed as described in United State Patent No. 6,390,979. A pattern of blood-flow-velocity changes is obtained in response to questions that include correct and incorrect answers. The wrong answer will elicit bi-hemispheric activation, from correct answer that activates unilateral response. Cognitive polygraphy based on this system is devoid of any subjective control of mental processes and, hence, high reliability and specificity; however, this is yet to be tested in forensic practice. See also cognitive biometrics.

[edit] fMRI
An fMRI can be used to compare brain activity differences for truth and lie.[4] Research does not currently support the use of fMRI to detect deception in “real world individual cases” (Kozel et al., 2004).

In episode 109 of the TV show Mythbusters, the three members of the build team attempted to fool an fMRI test. Although two of them were unsuccessful, the third was able to successfully fool the machine, suggesting that fMRI technology still requires further development.

[edit] Eye contact
Avoiding eye contact or too much eye contact.

[edit] Brain observations
Electroencephalography is used to detect changes in brain waves.

Brain fingerprinting uses electroencephalography to determine if an image is familiar to the subject. This could detect deception indirectly but is not a technique for lie detecting.

Cognitive chronometry, or the measurement of the time taken to perform mental operations, can be used to distinguish lying from truth-telling. One recent instrument using cognitive chronometry for this purpose is the Timed Antagonistic Response Alethiometer, or TARA.

[edit] Drugs
Truth drugs such as sodium thiopental are used for the purposes of obtaining accurate information from an unwilling subject.[5] Information obtained by publicly-disclosed truth drugs has been shown to be highly unreliable, with subjects apparently freely mixing fact and fantasy.[6] Much of the claimed effect relies on the belief of the subject that they cannot tell a lie while under the influence of the drug.

[edit] Controversy
In the peer reviewed academic article “Charlatanry in forensic speech science”, the authors reviewed 50 years of lie detector research and came to the conclusion that there is no scientific evidence supporting that lie detectors actually work.[7] Lie detector manufacturer Nemesysco sued the academic publisher for libel and forced a removal of the article from the online databases. In a letter to the publisher Nemesysco’s lawyers wrote that the authors of the article could be sued for defamation if they wrote on the subject again.[8][9]

The cumulative research evidence suggests that machines do detect deception better than chance, but with significant error rates and that strategies used to “beat” polygraph examinations, so-called countermeasures, may be effective.[10] Despite unreliability, results are admissible in court in some countries such as the United States and Canada.

Amazon.com Product Description
Not only does the HEM-712CLC Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor utilize Omron’s patented IntelliSense technology, but it also features an larger cuff that is perfect for larger-sized arms. It’s easy to apply the cuff to your arm without any assistance — simply wrap the cuff around your arm and press start. In seconds your blood pressure and pulse are displayed on the large digital panel. Proven time and time again, Omron’s IntelliSense technology ensures accurate, clinically-proven, and comfortable readings.

The Omron HEM-712CLC delivers accurate, clinically-proven blood pressure readings in the comfort of your own home. View larger.

To take an accurate reading, first position the green marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm.

Next, place your arm on a table so the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart.
Instructions for Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitors
There are several easy steps to taking your blood pressure with this monitor. First of all, avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement. Remove tight-fitting clothing from your upper arm, and sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Slide your left arm through the cuff and position the cuff approximately 0.5-inches above the elbow. On the cuff you’ll notice a green marker; position this marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm. Next, secure the cuff with the Velcro material. The cuff should make direct contact with your skin, but you should be able to easily fit your index finger between the cuff and your arm.

Place your arm on a table so that the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart. Rest comfortably in a relaxed environment for at least 15 minutes prior to taking your blood pressure measurement. Once you feel relaxed, simply press the start button and remain still. The cuff will begin to inflate and numbers will appear on the display as the heart symbol flashes. When the measurement is complete, the cuff will deflate, and your blood pressure and pulse rate will display on the screen. If you need to stop the measurement at any time, simply press the on/off button and the monitor will immediately deflate. And remember, always consult your physician for specific information about your blood pressure.

What is IntelliSense?
The IntelliSense monitor inflates the cuff to the ideal level with each use — you never have to make any adjustments to select an inflation level. This is especially convenient for hypertensive users and for people with certain arrhythmia or heart disorders because their blood pressure is so likely to fluctuate. The biggest advantage of using the IntelliSense technology is a personalized inflation, every time, for maximum comfort.

The Importance of Home Blood Pressure Monitoring
Doctors, diabetes educators, physician assistants, nurses, and other healthcare professionals all recommend home blood pressure monitoring for various reasons. Home monitoring provides your healthcare professionals with better information to understand and manage your high blood pressure. Many types of hypertension can only be detected by monitoring your blood pressure at home, including:

Truth drugs such as sodium thiopental are used for the purposes of obtaining accurate information from an unwilling subject.[5] Information obtained by publicly-disclosed truth drugs has been shown to be highly unreliable, with subjects apparently freely mixing fact and fantasy.[6] Much of the claimed effect relies on the belief of the subject that they cannot tell a lie while under the influence of the drug.

[edit] Controversy
In the peer reviewed academic article “Charlatanry in forensic speech science”, the authors reviewed 50 years of lie detector research and came to the conclusion that there is no scientific evidence supporting that lie detectors actually work.[7] Lie detector manufacturer Nemesysco sued the academic publisher for libel and forced a removal of the article from the online databases. In a letter to the publisher Nemesysco’s lawyers wrote that the authors of the article could be sued for defamation if they wrote on the subject again.[8][9]

The cumulative research evidence suggests that machines do detect deception better than chance, but with significant error rates and that strategies used to “beat” polygraph examinations, so-called countermeasures, may be effective.[10] Despite unreliability, results are admissible in court in some countries such as the United States and Canada.

a little research can keep you getting A’s

To take an accurate reading, first position the green marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm.

Next, place your arm on a table so the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart.
Instructions for Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitors
There are several easy steps to taking your blood pressure with this monitor. First of all, avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement. Remove tight-fitting clothing from your upper arm, and sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Slide your left arm through the cuff and position the cuff approximately 0.5-inches above the elbow. On the cuff you’ll notice a green marker; position this marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm. Next, secure the cuff with the Velcro material. The cuff should make direct contact with your skin, but you should be able to easily fit your index finger between the cuff and your arm.

Place your arm on a table so that the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart. Rest comfortably in a relaxed environment for at least 15 minutes prior to taking your blood pressure measurement. Once you feel relaxed, simply press the start button and remain still. The cuff will begin to inflate and numbers will appear on the display as the heart symbol flashes. When the measurement is complete, the cuff will deflate, and your blood pressure and pulse rate will display on the screen. If you need to stop the measurement at any time, simply press the on/off button and the monitor will immediately deflate. And remember, always consult your physician for specific information about your blood pressure.

What is IntelliSense?
The IntelliSense monitor inflates the cuff to the ideal level with each use — you never have to make any adjustments to select an inflation level. This is especially convenient for hypertensive users and for people with certain arrhythmia or heart disorders because their blood pressure is so likely to fluctuate. The biggest advantage of using the IntelliSense technology is a personalized inflation, every time, for maximum comfort.

The Importance of Home Blood Pressure Monitoring
Doctors, diabetes educators, physician assistants, nurses, and other healthcare professionals all recommend home blood pressure monitoring for various reasons. Home monitoring provides your healthcare professionals with better information to understand and manage your high blood pressure. Many types of hypertension can only be detected by monitoring your blood pressure at home, including:
