Should you take a lie detector test?

When detectives ask you to take a lie detector test, you can assume that they are trying to gather evidence, usually against you. Sometimes a suspect asks for evidence to prove his innocence. You are never legally required to take a lie test in a criminal investigation.

What exactly happens during a lie detector test?

They actually measure several indicators, such as heart rate, blood pressure, skin conductance and respiration, which when analyzed indicate whether the person being tested is lying.
