Abstract

This talk provides a practical overview of the findings in "Looking guilty: Handcuffing suspects influences judgements of deception" (Zloteanu, et al., 2022) investigating the effect of handcuffing suspects during police interviews. The research finds that a forensically-relevant situational factor can have substantial and detrimental effects on how random suspects are judged in terms of their honesty. This research highlights the need to strict and clear interviewing procedures.
