“…Beyond the theoretical merits of cross-cultural replications and translation, studying memory distrust in a Chinese context is also important for practical reasons. A recent review on forensic practice in Asia (Le et al, 2023) showed that false confessions and eyewitness identification errors-both plausible consequences of memory distrust-are important causes of wrongful convictions in Asian countries, just as they are in Western countries. Yet, Asian countries lack scholarly work on issues pertaining to forensic interviewing and memory (but see Sumampouw et al, 2022), even in China and Japan where such research does exist but remains very limited.…”

People differ in their skepticism toward their own memories, which is called memory distrust and is measured by the Squire Subjective Memory Questionnaire (SSMQ) and the Memory Distrust Scale (MDS).In Study 1 (N = 458), we translated the MDS into Chinese and found that MDS scores were correlated with self-reported memory errors, compliance, and life habits impacting source monitoring and had acceptable test-retest reliability after 4 weeks. In Study 2, participants (N = 383) completed a recognition task and received false feedback, then they completed the recognition task again, and completed the MDS and SSMQ 3 days later. High (vs. low) memory distrust people were more likely to accept the false feedback and change their memory afterward. The present research confirms the validity of the Chinese MDS, advancing the theoretical understanding of the interplay between metamemorial beliefs and social influence on memory reconstruction.

“…The outcome of the Human Rights Court, based on monitoring, reveals three major weaknesses, namely: 1) the failure to establish grave violations of human rights; 2) the acquittal of the defendants; and 3) the lack of compensation received by the victims (Eddyono & Abidin, 2016;Hasim, 2015;Le et al, 2023). The inadequacy of this regulation has resulted in the Human Rights Court being deemed incompatible with international standards, as international courts adjudicate international crimes, such as crimes against humanity.…”

Objective: The enactment of Law Number 39 of 1999 in Indonesia regarding Human Rights was followed by Law Number 26 of 2000 concerning the Human Rights Court, aiming to address various issues of serious human rights violations. However, these regulations have not been effectively implemented. Method: This study utilizes a qualitative methodology with an analytical descriptive specification, aiming to acquire a profound understanding of a specific phenomenon based on the interpretation and subjective experiences of participants. The data is collected from secondary sources, including primary legal sources such as regulations, laws, and court decisions, as well as secondary legal sources encompassing books, articles, and other relevant literature. The data collection techniques encompass literature review to comprehend the theoretical framework, observation for data authenticity, and interviews with relevant institutions to obtain additional information. Results: The Law Number 26 of 2000 concerning the Human Rights Court is insufficient to address human rights violations in Indonesia, including legal weaknesses and ambiguities in implementing legislation, such as the incomplete "element of crimes" of regulated offenses. The resolution of serious human rights violations in the Indonesian criminal justice system based on Law Number 26 of 2000 has not been able to create legal certainty and justice for victims of serious human rights violations. The Law Number 13 of 2006 on Witness and Victim Protection has to some extent provided a normative foundation for the protection of witnesses and victims. Conclusions: The Indonesian Law with number 26 of 2000 regarding the Human Rights Court is deemed inadequate in addressing serious human rights violations in Indonesia, due to weaknesses in legal certainty and justice. Meanwhile, the Indonesian Law with number 13 of 2006 provides a normative foundation for the protection of witnesses and victims.
