I took a poly a couple of days ago. My 3rd poly overall. I passed my previous 2. Anyways, this is my story. The poly examiner stated I showed a very high level of deceit in 1 question. "Have you withheld any information during this background investigation" If those aren't the exact words it was something very similiar. Examiner stated that the scale was a 9.9 out of a possible 10 as far as deception. So afterwards he seemed very agitated with me and pressed me if I was telling him everything that we went over in the background and past history packet. I told him I have told him everything I can remember. I'm 31 Years old and the negative things I've done in my life occurred 10 to 10+years ago. I disclosed everything I have every done (fighting,theft,marijuana usage, arrest, cheating). I disclosed every residence, job, ticket, collections history, etc etc, detail that was asked to the best of knowledge.
I told him and I also told the last examiner that gave me a poly test a couple years ago that when I hear that question I doubt myself because I might have forgotten small dumb things I might have done when I was a teenager in High School or College that I did not disclose in the packet. So I feel guilty.
I guess my question is if I did not show any signs of deceit in the other specific questions involving drug use, theft, undetected crimes, sex with underage person, etc then how could I show a very high level of deception in probably the most broad question asked during the examine?
The examiner said that he had to discuss my results with my background investigator and they would get back to me. So right now I look at this as I failed the test and I'm going to get DQ'ed. I was just as truthful during this examine as I was in the past 2 that I passed.
Thanks for time!
