Obviously, the interviewer is implying about loyalty to the state (“state” as in country, not a US State) or to an administration, and I know that they are implying that. But I am not loyal to an administration. But I know that’s what they actually meant.

How would the polygraph interpret it if I say “Yes”, because I’m answering based on my interpretation of loyalty to the constitution, but deep down, I full well know the implied question the interviewer is asking.

    You can learn to consciously control a lot of things that various ‘lie detectors’ monitor. I took a stress management/biofeedback class in college where we learned to raise and lower galvanic skin response, heart rate, and blood pressure. It was a fun class, and in learning to control them, you can also reduce the chance of getting a false positive by keeping any of those variables from drifting to far from the expected range.
