Little is known about the relation between law enforcement interviewing behaviors and commercially sexually exploited children's (CSEC) reluctance. This study examined the relation between officers' use of maximization, (references to) expertise, minimization, and support and adolescent CSEC victims' reluctance in a small sample of police interviews ( = 2,416 question-answer pairs across ten interviews). Twenty-six percent of officers' utterances contained at least one interviewing tactic. When statements were paired with maximization, they were correlated with more reluctance than when they were not paired with an interviewing tactic. Contrary to predictions, support was also related to greater reluctance. Open-ended (recall) questions and statements were associated with greater reluctance than closed-ended (recognition) questions. The results highlight the importance of understanding the context in which interviewing strategies are employed when assessing the relation between interviewer behavior and interviewee reluctance.
关于执法人员询问行为与遭受商业性剥削儿童（CSEC）的抵触情绪之间的关系，我们知之甚少。本研究在一小部分警方询问样本（十次询问中共有2416个问答对）中，考察了警察使用最大化策略、（提及）专业知识、最小化策略和支持手段与青少年CSEC受害者抵触情绪之间的关系。26%的警察话语至少包含一种询问策略。当陈述与最大化策略相结合时，与未与询问策略相结合相比，它们与更多的抵触情绪相关。与预测相反，支持也与更大的抵触情绪有关。开放式（回忆）问题和陈述比封闭式（识别）问题与更大的抵触情绪相关。研究结果凸显了在评估询问者行为与被询问者抵触情绪之间的关系时，理解采用询问策略的背景的重要性。
