Detailed explanation-1: -Polygraph Theory Lie detection is based on the assumption that when an individual experiences apprehension, fear, or emotional excitement, his or her respiration rate, blood pressure, and galvanic skin resistance sharply increase.
Detailed explanation-2: -Is there a possibility of failing the lie detector test when you are nervous? The lie detector test takes note of the physical responses which may include the heart rate or the breathing. Thus, provided that your feelings and emotions do not induce a direct physical response, there should be no problem with the test.
Detailed explanation-3: -Thus, from a medical perspective it is entirely valid that the polygraph will accurately measure sympathetic nervous system activity with its instrumentation. The false assumption of the polygraph test is that dishonesty is the sole cause of sympathetic arousal during a polygraph examination.
