Title: Opinions about the forensic use of hypnosis
Author: McConkey, Kevin M.
Jupp, James J.
Appeared in: Australian psychologist
Paging: Volume 20 (1985) nr. 3 pages 283-291
Year: 1985-11-01
Contents: Two hundred and three undergraduate subjects were administered a 10-item questionnaire that assessed opinions about the forensic use of hypnosis. Findings indicated subjects considered (a) hypnosis could enhance accurate memory, (b) the hypnotist should be a psychiatrist or psychologist (rather than a police officer), (c) hypnotically obtained information should be verified by independent physical evidence, and (d) hypnosis should not be used simply as part of an attempt to convict someone of a crime. The opinions expressed by subjects are discussed in terms of their consistency with scientific knowledge and legal opinion.
