Interrogative suggestibility in an adolescent forensic population

Article Abstract:

There are no differences in suggestibility between children and adults as long as their memory are at the same level. Moreover, age makes children less susceptible to suggestibility and increases their level of suggestibility so that it approximates that of the average adult. However, children are more likely to give in to interrogative pressure than adults. This is confirmed in a recent study.
