“…In all, these results are consistent with numerous studies (e.g. Boon & Noon, 1994;Milne & Bull, 2002) and suggest that the 'perspective' does not lead to more complete testimonies than 'multiple retrieval'. On the contrary, the GPF could enhance the completeness of reports, without impairing their accuracy, compared with the control instruction.…”

“…It is thus crucial to understand the extent to which its components are effective when used in isolation. Several researchers attempted to examine this issue by comparing each of the four CI/ECI mnemonics to a free recall (Geiselman, Fisher, MacKinnon, & Holland, 1986;Memon, Cronin, Eaves, & Bull, 1996;Boon & Noon, 1994;Milne & Bull, 2002). The majority of these studies showed that the two mnemonics based notably on the encoding specificity principle (i.e.…”

“…The majority of these studies showed that the two mnemonics based notably on the encoding specificity principle (i.e. 'everything' and 'context') are effective in increasing correct information (Geiselman et al, 1986;Boon & Noon, 1994;Milne & Bull, 2002;Davis, McMahon, & Greenwood, 2005), but there has been mixed results concerning the effectiveness of the two mnemonics based on the varied retrieval principle or schema theories (e.g. Schank & Abelson, 1977), (i.e.…”

Research showed that the four Cognitive Interview (CI) mnemonics used individually are unequally effective. We propose to test (i) their benefit when used within the same free recall phase and (ii) an original instruction, 'guided peripheral focus' (GPF). In two studies, 84 and 42 students were interviewed with Structured Interviews (SI), CIs or CI variations about a film viewed 1 week before. Results indicated that (i) if a CI variation with the GPF instead of the 'perspective' elicits more correct information than an SI or a CI, variations replacing the 'perspective' or the 'order' and 'perspective' with control instruction(s) do not; (ii) a partial CI integrating the 'everything', 'context' and GPF increases correct information compared with an SI, whereas the CI does not. We will discuss in which extent these results demonstrate the effectiveness of the 'everything', 'context' and 'GPF' and a potential lack of benefit of the 'order' and 'perspective'.

“…The cognitive interview has been the object of numerous studies undertaken both by American (Fisher and Geiselman, 1992), and European researchers (Bekerian and Dennett, 1993;Boon and Noon, 1994;KoÈ hnken, ThuÈ rer and Zoberbier, 1992a). In the majority of these studies, it has been observed that the individuals who were interviewed by means of the CI remembered more correct information concerning persons and the sequence of events than did those who were interviewed by traditional methods, and did not generate more incorrect information.…”

The observation of serious deficiencies in the traditional police interview led Geiselman and colleagues to develop an alternative method of questioning. This method is known as the cognitive interview. The CI starts from the premise that the witness, victim or suspect wishes to cooperate. But, what happens if this is not the case? More seriously, what happens if he/she lies? The main aim of this study is to examine the differences between true and false statements, as a function of the interview technique employed (CI/STI). Participants were 73 students of the University of La Laguna. A 2×2 factorial design with the following variables was used: type of interview [traditional interview used in Spain by the Police (STI) and cognitive (CI)] and type of statement (true and false). The hypothesis was that the true and false accounts of witnesses would be qualitatively and quantitatively different independent of the type of interview used (STI/CI). Results confirmed the hypothesis. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
