Abstract

The main issues of the use of polygraph in the selection of personnel in law enforcement agencies are the following: the lack of solid, consistent, scientifically based and proven "theory of the polygraph"; impossibility to assess the compliance with the methodological requirements while examination on the polygraph (non-recorded examination); formal and "superficial" nature of the examination; the inability to attract the professionals to do the "human" examination on the polygraph who do not work in the organization, conducting HR check of the candidate; the absence of a formal and legal conclusion based on the examination results available at the request of the candidate to the candidate and "third-party" experts; inability to revalidate the results of the polygraph operator who gave the "staff test" with a polygraph; no legal liability of the false conclusions on the results of the study with the use of the polygraph in the selection of personnel.
