Colleagues, Ironically, just as I finished reading the recent posts
on TIPS about the EEG quackery presented as science on the 60 Minutes
episode, I received the following funding announcement from the
Community of Science:
Title: Test for Espionage and Sabotage: Replication II
Sponsor: United States Department of Defense (DOD)
Department of Defense Polygraph Institute
Abstract: The Department of Defense Polygraph Institute has a
requirement to conduct developmental research on a psychophysiological
detection of deception (PDD) project. The objective is to test up to
100 volunteers over a two-month period. The goal of this project is to
manipulate volunteers into telling specific lies during polygraph
examination to test the accuracy of the polygraph examination
procedure. The manipulation should be as realistic as possible.
