Facing an event of alleged sexual abuse, children are usually interrogated by parents, teachers and other meaningful figures, which usually don’t have any competence on children’s testimony, and so they might unintentionally (or even intentionally, as for example in a controversial separation) infect children’s memories with suggestive or inductive questions. The aim of this research is to analyse the way the contamination happens.
Keywords: Child sexual abuse, suggestibility, children’s testimony, memory contamination, psychology and law, traumatic experience
