Introducing Externally Verifiable Information in the Forensic Interview

Duration: 1h 30m | Recorded on July 31, 2024

It is important for forensic interviewers to know the full extent of their options when transitioning to a topic of concern or focusing a child on information that is known outside of the forensic interview. This information, often called externally verifiable information, can be used in a legally defensible manner when interviewers assess and apply the information after critically thinking about its use. This presentation will offer some guidance on how to assess externally verifiable information. Research-based interview approaches will be discussed. Participants will do activities that enhance critical thinking.
