Eliciting information and cues to deception using a model statement: Examining the effect of presentation modality (2020)
Journal Article
Porter, C. N., & Salvanelli, G. (2020). Eliciting information and cues to deception using a model statement: Examining the effect of presentation modality. Journal of Investigative Psychology and Offender Profiling, 17(2), 101-117. https://doi.org/10.1002/jip.1541

Forensic interviewing involves gathering information from a suspect or eyewitness. Administering a model statement during an interview results in greater information elicitation, which can enhance lie detection. Typically, a model statement is a high...
