Note: most polygraph examiners do not know of these 3 similar exams below as they are not taught by civilian lie-detection academies, so consider this your 'lesson of the day':

--A Lifestyle Polygraph asks the examinee questions that concern the applicant’s personal life and conduct, and can involve all aspects of present and past behavior. Questions asked could concern drug and alcohol use, sexual misconduct, mental health, family relationships, compulsive or addictive behavior, and more. A LifeStyle Polygraph looks for issues in an applicant’s private life for which he or she might be susceptible to blackmail or coercion, and/or whether or not that applicant can be trusted with sensitive information. A very detailed questionaire is involved.

--A CI or CounterIntellgence Polygraph asks only questions to determine whether the examinee ever had any involvement with or knowledge of espionage/sabotage/terrorism against the United States, unauthorized contact with representatives of a foreign government, or unauthorized disclosure of classified material. It is sometimes used to determine initial eligibility for a special assignment or special access, and is often administered to persons who already have Top Secret clearances. Usually there are no lifestyle questions included.

--A FullScope Polygraph is the LifeStyle Polygraph and CounterIntelligence Polygraph combined. Common for software engineer job applicants. A very detailed questionaire is involved.
