About the Book

This is the Center's best-selling, most-acclaimed, and most widely used book. Anne Graffam Walker, a forensic linguist who does extensive training on questioning child victim/witnesses, covers child understanding of adult questions, problems to look out for in child interviewing, and language-related reasons for inconsistencies in child testimony; moreover, has references, checklists, and suggestions for child interviewing/questioning, sentence-building principles for talking to children, a prototype child competency voir dire, and an extensive author and subject index. Revises and updates her 1994 1st edition materials, expands upon its list of principles for child questioning, and adds a chapter on cross-cultural issues affecting child questioning.
