Abstract:
In the context of the large-scale spread of information and digital technologies, their effective implementation in the fight against crime is especially relevant. Russian criminal procedural legislation establishes general grounds for the application of a number of scientific and technological advances in order to counter the spread of criminal behavior. However, not all technical means have received a full-fledged legal regulation in terms of their use at various stages of the criminal process. So, the use of psychophysiological research is currently very controversial, especially in terms of their introduction as evidence. Despite the lack of detailed legal regulation of the specifics of conducting these studies with the use of a polygraph, psychophysiological studies are carried out quite often in investigative practice. The purpose of writing a research paper is to analyze certain aspects of the use of psychophysiological research in the investigation of crimes in the Russian Federation. The author comes to the conclusion about the essential importance of the use of psychophysiological research by the investigating authorities in the investigation of crimes, in connection with which it seems unacceptable to limit the capabilities of competent employees in terms of conducting relevant examinations. Attention is focused on the identified vulnerabilities of psychophysiological studies using a polygraph, which do not allow using their results as a full-fledged evidence. The undeniable importance of psychophysiological studies for obtaining orienting information on criminal cases, as well as their use as a means of assessing other direct evidence of the guilt of specific individuals, is noted.
