This paper presents the results of a bibliometric study providing a comprehensive overview of the social science research conducted on criminal interrogations and investigative interviews since the 1900s. The objectives are to help researchers to further understand the research field, to better communicate research findings to practitioners, to help practitioners understand the breadth of scientific knowledge on criminal interrogations and investigative interviews, and to foster dialog between researchers and practitioners. To begin, after a brief description of Web of Science, we describe how we developed our database on criminal interrogations and investigative interviews. Then, we report the yearly evolution of articles, the journals where they were published, the research areas covered by this research field, as well as the authors, the institutions and the countries that published the most on a variety of topics related to criminal interrogations and investigative interviews. Finally, we present the most used keywords and the most cited articles, and examine the research on questionable tactics and techniques in the research field of criminal interrogations and investigative interviews. This paper ends with a critical look at the results, for the benefit of researchers and practitioners interested in criminal interrogations and investigative interviews.
本文展示了一项文献计量研究的结果，该研究全面概述了自20世纪以来关于刑事讯问和调查性访谈的社会科学研究。其目的是帮助研究人员进一步了解该研究领域，更好地向从业者传达研究结果，帮助从业者了解关于刑事讯问和调查性访谈的科学知识广度，并促进研究人员与从业者之间的对话。首先，在简要介绍科学网之后，我们描述了如何建立关于刑事讯问和调查性访谈的数据库。然后，我们报告文章的年度演变情况、发表文章的期刊、该研究领域涵盖的研究领域，以及在与刑事讯问和调查性访谈相关的各种主题上发表文章最多的作者、机构和国家。最后，我们展示了最常用的关键词和被引用最多的文章，并审视了刑事讯问和调查性访谈研究领域中关于可疑策略和技巧的研究。本文最后对研究结果进行了批判性审视，以惠及对刑事讯问和调查性访谈感兴趣的研究人员和从业者。
