Description

Handbook On Questioning Children: A Linguistic Perspective Anne G Walker ISBN 9781627222037

This new edition applies the principles of linguistics to the essential task of communicating accurately with children in the legal system, covering key areas such as forensic interviewing, questioning, and testifying.

New content in this edition includes:

  • Updated references and research

  • Guidance on interacting with adolescents and individuals with disabilities

  • Expanded material on children’s basic and truth–lie competency, including sample competency assessment questions

  • New approaches to narrative practice

  • Strategies for instructing children on how to testify effectively

"The next step is for attorneys and judges to become better acquainted with the research on child interviewing, and this book is the best place to start."
— Thomas D. Lyon, Ph.D., J.D., University of Southern California Gould School of Law and Department of Psychology

This edition remains an essential resource for legal professionals seeking to ensure accurate, ethical, and effective communication with child witnesses.
