La parole de l'enfant en justice est un sujet passionné, pollué par de nombreuses représentations idéologiques parfois copieusement servies par des théories pseudo-scientifiques. Le témoignage d'un enfant peut être contaminé par des interrogatoires répétés et être influencé par toutes sortes de facteurs : la perte de confiance de l'enfant, son niveau développemental, sa compréhension des questions et bien entendu l'influence des adultes sur ses propres souvenirs. Les connaissances scientifiques concernant le témoignage des enfants ont explosé au cours des trente dernières années. Elles ont permis de mieux baliser la pratique de l'audition des mineurs et de tout entretien requis à des fins d'expertise ou d'évaluation auprès d'enfants. Cet ouvrage offre aux intervenants une synthèse des connaissances acquises, ainsi qu'un éclairage sur les implications de celles-ci pour la conduite d'entretiens dans les meilleures conditions possibles. Sont examinés, entre autres, divers protocoles actuellement utilisés en France, dont l'Entretien par étapes progressives ou l'entretien cognitif adapté aux enfants, et le protocole du National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), qui est le protocole le plus reconnu, et le mieux validé, à l'échelle mondiale. La version révisée de ce protocole y est détaillée.

Previously, researchers interested in the applications of their research needed to look to separate books, and forensic specialists needed to look to development boo
