V.1. Thesis - The usefulness of suggestibility scales in predicting children's false reports of events -- v.2. Clinical portfolio - Exposure to family violence and its implications for children's development |
Summary |
This thesis examined the nature and strength of the relationship between children's performance on suggestibility scales and their recall of independent events. It demonstrated that whilst standardised scales of suggestibility may be useful in predicting children's reporting of false information, there are clear boundaries to their usefulness. The clinical portfolio examines and discusses the impact that exposure to family violence has on children's functioning across development |
