Where are the standard questions used to establish a “base-line”? And, if this is from a “repressed memory” in all likelihood she actually believes this is the truth. The polygraph, when contrasted with the statements of 4 witnesses she provided, doesn’t mean squat.
Beautiful! I think we are within our rights to ask if and how she did a coast-to-coast round-trip at that time. Her travels over the past two months should be interesting. If she's been holed up in Maryland / DC for six weeks, that would bust Sunday's "fear of flying" excuse.
Bingo! A blood test should be taken as part of the polygraph.
The bigger issue is that she is refusing to release records to the Senate Judiciary Committee after she apparently DID release them to the Washington Post.
Correct. She could be delusional, schizophrenic, or have any number of mental conditions.
They cherry pick their own data, meanwhile this is all memory gap expansion. Could be made up.
No baseline questions?
Two questions?
A proper polygraph test first establishes a baseline for truthful and untruthful responses and the uses a lot of carefully formulated questions questions to establish a clear pattern
Two questions are worthless
She was asked two questions, and two questions only:
Is any part of your statement false?
Did you make up any part of your statement?
—
You’ve got to be kidding me! Where are the baseline response questions like one’s name and address, etc.
Just two questions were asked, and both answers were a quick 'no'. For the record, from polygraph.org's FAQ on a proper polygraph:
What is the scope of test questions?
In a law enforcement preemployment polygraph examination, the questions include, but are not limited to, job related inquiries as the theft from previous employers, falsification of information on the job applications, the use of illegal drugs, and criminal activities. The test questions may be limited in the time span they cover, and all are reviewed and discussed with the examinee during a pre-test interview before any polygraph testing is done. There are no surprise or trick questions.
In a specific issue polygraph examination the relevant questions focus on the particular act under investigation.

"after" is doing some heavy lifting there
True.
Perhaps legal wasn’t the proper word, but “valid” would certainly apply.
At this point, what difference does it make? Kavanaugh can either prove he's innocent or he's clearly guilty. /s
Polygraphs are so unreliable they are inadmissible in court.
Took the canal.
I have taken many polygraphs in my lifetime due to jobs and clearances. The only one I failed was my first. It was the only one that I told the complete truth. After that, I learned to be calm and how to take polygraph tests without a problem. It is ridiculously easy providing one has the knowledge; thus the reason they are not accepted in a court of law.
Guess she plans to show up.
2. Did you make up any part of your statement?
Ford: No. {I didn't write a word of it.}
Same thing happened to me, I failed I was so nervous. I don’t trust them at all. If you can fail when nervous, you can also pass when guilty.
Do another
What else is known of the examiner & the surrounding circumstaces, etc..?
