Forensic Interviewing w. Dr. Ray Joslyn

While "just the facts" might be one way to ask questions, it's certainly not the ONLY way. And, if you're not careful, your interviewing style could get you all the wrong answers. This week we're joined by Dr. Ray Joslyn to discuss ALL the behavior analytic research there is on forensic interviewing. Is it the way we ask the questions or our responses to answers that influence accuracy the most? Are children or adults the most impacted by misleading statements? And did Scooby Doo really eat that ice cream cone? Are you sure? Hmm...ok, if you say so. This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
