Thinking About Booking a Lie Detector Test?
Whether you’re facing a relationship dispute, a workplace theft, or simply need to prove your innocence, booking a qualified polygraph examiner is one of the most effective steps you can take to uncover the truth.
But not all lie detector tests are equal — and choosing the right examiner can make or break your case.
What Is a Polygraph Test — and Why Use One?
A polygraph, or lie detector test, measures involuntary physiological responses like:
- Heart rate
- Breathing patterns
- Sweat gland activity (skin conductance)
- Blood pressure changes
When conducted by a trained examiner, these measurements reveal whether someone is being deceptive — with accuracy rates of up to 98%.
Australian Polygraph Services also offers EyeDetect technology to enhance accuracy and reduce testing time.
What to Look for in a Qualified Polygraph Examiner
- Forensically trained through an accredited institution
- Certified by global polygraph associations (e.g., APA, AAPP)
- Experienced in legal, corporate, or criminal casework
- Committed to confidentiality, neutrality, and professionalism
Steve van Aperen, founder of Australian Polygraph Services, is internationally recognized and has conducted over 1,000 forensic interviews across law enforcement and government agencies.
