Clinical Polygraph Examinations
Clinical polygraph examinations are a specialized area within the polygraph
profession. Clinical examiners have received additional training in
providing POST-CONVICTION SEX OFFENDER TESTING and
are certified by the American Polygraph Association.
There are four distinct types of clinical polygraph examinations that
are used in conjunction with the treatment and supervision of sex offenders.
Disclosure Over Instant Offense
This test is typically done at the beginning of probation/parole and treatment when the subject is in denial of the crime of conviction.Disclosure Over Sexual History
The purpose is to verify full and complete disclosure of sexual history for treatment purposes. A sexual history questionnaire, completed by the offender and approved by the treatment provider must be submitted to the polygraph examiner before the examination.Monitoring
This test covers any sexual re-offending and any other illegal sexual behavior for a designated time period since being on probation/parole.
Maintenance
This test covers any violations of probation/parole conditions not listed above, or violations of treatment rules and contracts, but cannot address both. It is typically done every six months to a year, or as needed.Each test takes from 2 to 3 hours to complete. Specific areas of concern are identified prior to testing and the relevant questions are formulated to address those concerns. There are no surprises in the questioning. All questions and answers are discussed fully with the subject prior to testing.
Results of the examination are available directly after the test. A verbal report may be made to the requesting agency at that time. A full written report is available within 2 working days.
