N2 - We argue that the article by Mangan and co-workers on the Quadri-Track Zone Comparison Technique is an example of the failure of the peer-review procedure. This study is not properly grounded in current psychophysiology on lie detection. It also lacks the defining characteristics, such as a replicable methodology, of a proper scientific study. The finding that the Quadri-Track Zone Comparison Technique is highly accurate is likely due to a methodological artefact, and deserved no place in a peer-reviewed journal.
