The Cognitive Interview was developed by... |
Fisher and Geiselman (1992) |
|
|
The 4 components are... |
1. Report everything 2. Mental reinstatement of original context 3. Changing the order 4. Changing the perspective |
|
|
Report everything |
Interviewer encouraged the reporting of every single detail of the event, even though it may seem irrelevant or trivial. |
|
|
Mental reinstatement of original context |
Interviewer encourages the interviewee to mentally recreate the environment and contacts from the original incident. |
|
|
Changing the order |
The interviewer may try alternative ways through the timeline of the incident. E.g., reversing the order in which the events occurred. |
|
|
Changing the perspective |
Interviewee is asked to recall the incident from multiple perspectives. E.g., imagining how it would have appeared to other witnesses present at the time. |
|
|
The first two components are based on the principle that... |
if there is a consistency between the actual incident and the recreated situation, there is an increased likeliness that witnesses will recall more details and be more accurate in their recall. |
|
|
The latter two components are based on the assumption that... |
information that has been observed can be retrieved through a number of different 'routes' into an individual's memory, therefore it is more productive to vary these routes during questioning. |
|
|
Compared with the Standard Interview, the CI is... |
less structured, interviewees can talk freely and encouraged to talk about anything that comes into their head, and it feels less like an interrogation. |
