Abstract

Abstract Children (N = 114, ages 7–13) witnessed a transgressor steal money from a wallet and then asked them to lie about the theft when interviewed by a novel interviewer. During the interview, children were asked to either describe various experienced events (Narrative Practice Rapport-building condition) or participate in an interactive activity designed to focus on the relational aspects of rapport-building including mutual attentiveness, positivity, and coordination between child and interviewer (Interactional Rapport-building condition). Children also completed a measure of rapport to indicate their subjective level of rapport with the interviewer. Older children in the Interactional Rapport-building condition were significantly more likely to be truthful, disclose the transgression earlier, and give more details. Findings provide an initial, exploratory understanding of how the rapport-building phase in eyewitness interviews may play an important role in children’s disclosure decision-making and may be another area to study to promote more truthful disclosures.
融洽关系在激发儿童真实报告中的作用
114名7-13岁的儿童目睹了一名罪犯从钱包里偷钱,然后要求他们在接受一名新奇的采访者采访时撒谎。在访谈中,孩子们被要求描述各种经历过的事件(叙述性实践建立关系条件)或参与一个互动活动,旨在关注建立关系的关系方面,包括孩子和采访者之间的相互关注、积极性和协调(互动建立关系条件)。孩子们还完成了一项关系测量,以表明他们与面试官的主观关系水平。在互动关系建立条件下,年龄较大的孩子更有可能说实话,更早地披露违规行为,并提供更多细节。调查结果提供了一个初步的,探索性的理解,在目击者访谈中建立关系阶段如何在儿童披露决策中发挥重要作用,可能是另一个研究领域,以促进更真实的披露。
