Truthfully this isn't just a little game... Polygraphs, also commonly known as lie detector tests, are usually used for serious business, oftentimes used in order to help solve criminal cases. What? You thought people could just lie and get away with it? Think again.
However, we must note that lie detector tests are not ALWAYS accurate. As found on Cornell Law School's site, "Polygraphs measure physiological arousal factors, including heart rate, blood pressure, respiration, perspiration, and skin conductivity. The theory of the lie detector test is that these physiological responses will be different when the subject is truthful versus when the subject lies. Therefore, the term ‘lie detector test’ is a misnomer of sorts, since the test does not speak to the truth of the answer or statement, but rather to the fear, stress, and anxiety of the subject as they answer."
Because of this, some are hesitant to use them... Though, nonetheless, they're still very useful and widely used during interrogations. So, what do you think? Would you pass a lie detector test or would your nerves get in the way? It's important to know! Find out below.
