ABSTRACT
Suggestibility refers to the reporting of false information that is explicitly provided by, or inferred from, interviews or conversations with another person. For example, false information may be explicitly presented in the form of misleading questions in which the interviewer’s question includes or presupposes a false detail, such as Was his hat blue? when there was no hat or the hat was in fact yellow. False information may also be more subtly presented through the interviewer’s reaction to the child’s report when it does not coincide with her preexisting ideas.
