Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The other options (stress, use of drugs/alcohol, biting down on tongue) can all potentially affect the physiological responses measured by the polygraph, thus potentially affecting the accuracy of the test. However, the gender of the respondent is not a physiological factor and is therefore not relevant to the accuracy of the test.
