The putative confession (PC) instruction (i.e., "[suspect] told me everything that happened and wants you to tell the truth") during forensic interviews with children has been shown to increase the accuracy of children's statements, but it is unclear whether adults' perceptions are sensitive to this salutary effect. The present study examined how adults perceive children's true and false responses to the PC instruction. Participants ( = 299) watched videotaped interviews of children and rated the child's credibility and the truthfulness of his/her statements. When viewing children's responses to the PC instruction, true and false statements were rated as equally credible, and there was a decrease in accuracy for identifying false denials as lies. These findings suggest that participants viewed the PC instruction as truth-inducing. Implications for the forensic use of the PC instruction are discussed.
在对儿童进行法医面谈时，假定供述（PC）指示（即“[嫌疑人]把发生的一切都告诉了我，希望你说出真相”）已被证明能提高儿童陈述的准确性，但尚不清楚成年人的认知是否对这种有益效果敏感。本研究考察了成年人如何看待儿童对PC指示的真假反应。参与者（n = 299）观看了儿童面谈的录像，并对儿童的可信度及其陈述的真实性进行评分。在查看儿童对PC指示的反应时，真假陈述被评为同样可信，并且将虚假否认识别为谎言的准确性有所下降。这些发现表明，参与者将PC指示视为诱导说出真相的方式。本文还讨论了PC指示在法医领域应用的意义。
