The *domestic/marriage polygraph examination is one of the most difficult
polygraph examinations an examiner can conduct. Quite often, these
examinations are requested by spouses who are concerned about the
truthfulness of their spouse concerning an allegation of an affair.
These tests are ones in which the examiner has to get some background as to
the allegation of the affair. In the pretest interview with the polygraph
subject, the examiner has to ascertain whether there has been anything
similar in nature that the polygraph subject has done during the course of
their marriage that might cause a guilty response on the examination or
might cause an outside variable response. Domestic/marriage polygraph
examinations are an accurate tool of fidelity. However, most examiners,
because of the fact that it is a highly emotional test, feel uncomfortable
conducting such a test.
The rate for domestic/marriage polygraph examinations is usually anywhere
from $250 to $450. They usually take about an hour and a half of time.
People reading this material should understand that the polygraph subject is
not attached to the instrumentation for very long. Each of the two to three
charts usually take four to five minutes. During the interview phase, the
polygraph equipment is not attached to the subject as it is during the
testing phase. The testing phase is usually 15 to 20 minutes long.
