Determining elements that underpin learning of child-witness interviewing

本项目旨在调查儿童证人面谈技能学习的基础要素。开创性研究的初步迹象表明，面试官行为的积极变化是可以实现的。该项目旨在将这项工作扩大到更大的规模。预期结果包括关于在不同环境下技能获得对不同学习者有效的条件的知识，以及如何长期保持技能。调查结果将指导面谈人员培训计划的规划和实施，并有助于提高面谈质量和为虐待儿童原告提供更好的司法结果。

This project aims to investigate the elements that underpin the learning of child witness interviewing skills. Preliminary indications from pioneering research suggest that positive change in interviewer behaviour is achievable. This project aims to extend that work on a larger scale. Expected outcomes include knowledge about the conditions under which skill acquisition is effective for different learners in disparate contexts, and how skills can be maintained over the long term. The findings will guide the planning and implementation of interviewer training programs and contribute to improved interview quality and better justice outcomes for child complainants of abuse.
