The aim of this project is to establish how the use of Body Worn Cameras to record statements in domestic and family violence cases affects assessment of a complainant’s credibility at trial. It will generate new knowledge about the influence of: (i) the physical environment in which recordings are made, (ii) the audio and visual quality of recordings, and (iii) fact-finders’ (judges and jurors) emotional responses to recordings. Expected outcomes of the project include law reform and policy recommendations to improve the practice of recording victim/witness statements and management of the use of such evidence in criminal proceedings.

该项目的目的是确定在家庭暴力案件中使用佩戴式摄像机记录陈述如何影响对审判中申诉人可信度的评估。它将产生关于以下因素影响的新知识：（一）制作录音的物理环境，（二）录音的音频和视频质量，以及（三）事实调查者（法官和陪审员）对录音的情绪反应。 该项目的预期成果包括法律改革和政策建议，以改进记录受害者/证人陈述的做法和在刑事诉讼中使用此类证据的管理。
