Cross and Saxe published an article in Journal of Child Sexual Abuse in 1992 in which they assert that "polygraph testing" is inaccurate and inappropriate for any use in the prevention, control, and treatment of child sexual abuse. We excamine the flaws in heir arguments and present a summary of recent polygraph validity and reliability studies to refutc their claims that polygraph validity and reliability has not and can not be researched. Recent studies show that field polygraph testing has overall accuracy rates of 98%. "Polygraph," or psychophysiological detection of deception (PDD) testing, is now widely used as: (1) part of the investigation process concerning allegations of child sexual abuse; (2) an important aid in the prevention of additional offenses by adjudicated child sexual abusers who are still in the community; and, (3) treatment of child sexual abusers in cooperation with therapists trying to help he offender overcome denial. forensic pychophysiologists are a small but important part of the effort to prevent, control and treat child sexual abuse. |
