Recent past complaints: NO
Examiner gender: M
Summary per Client's wife: Says several examiners told her that only 4 questions be asked.
Lack of understanding on her part. Client was not asked 30 different questions. Client was asked a standard 10-question polygraph chart. That chart was conducted three times with a short break in between each chart. And when other examiners advised of only allowing 4 questions, they were properly telling of four R questions (there are 3 types of questions in a polygraph chart); as it turns out, Client was indeed asked only four R questions.
