Informed Consent: The Foundation of Every Professional Polygraph Examination

Before any polygraph examination begins, the examinee must understand what the examination involves, why it is being conducted, and what the possible consequences and limitations are.

The SAPPA Constitution defines informed consent as consent that is voluntary, specific and informed, given only after the examinee has been provided with information they can reasonably understand regarding the purpose, nature, consequences and limitations of the examination.

This principle protects both the examinee and the examiner. It promotes fairness, transparency and ethical practice, while ensuring that participation is based on an informed decision rather than pressure or misunderstanding.

Professional polygraph examinations begin with respect for the rights of the individual.

In Pursuit of the Truth.

Every professional association should have a clear purpose. SAPPA exists to advance the polygraph profession while protecting the integrity of investigations and the rights of those who are examined.

Our Constitution sets out four key objectives:

✅ To serve the cause of truth with integrity, objectivity, and fairness.

✅ To encourage research, training, and continuous professional education, ensuring that our members remain at the forefront of international best practice.

✅ To provide a professional forum where knowledge, experience, and developments in forensic psychophysiology can be shared for the benefit of the profession.

✅ To establish and enforce high standards for membership, ethics, and professional practice, ensuring that the public can have confidence in SAPPA-accredited examiners.

At SAPPA, membership represents more than belonging to an association, it represents a commitment to professionalism, ethical conduct, continuous learning, and the pursuit of truth.

SAPPA – In Pursuit of the Truth.

A security company in Johannesburg contracted Polyventures Polygraph Investigations to test two of their employees on two seperate allegations.

The first allegation was that one of their rapid response officers took money from the unlocked domestic room of the house that he had to respond to because of the alarm that went off whilst the owners were away. The officer showed No Deception on his test proving that IF any money was stolen, he was not the one who stole it.

The other allegation was against a patrolling officer and a car that was stolen from a neighbourhood while he was on duty. On camera it showed him talking to one of the criminals outside of the complex. He mentioned that he did approach the suspicious person to ask what was going on, as per his job description, but unfortunately the criminal convinced him that he lives in the complex and that he had car problems and that is why he was outside with his car. Although the officer aknowledged that he had to report the suspicious activity earlier, a mistake in a very stressful scenario, he also showed No Deception during his polygraph test proving that he was not involved in the crime
