, 1984). Geiselman et al (1985) found that the participant using the cognitive interview accurately recalled significant information than others.
Weaknesses about cognitive interview are that people have limited amount of psychological resources to obtain information. Any type of distracting noise can sidetrack a witness's away from recollecting information about a crime. Another weakness pertaining to the study done is that the condition of the films giving to the participants was not similar to real-life situations; so participant's reactions may not have been effective to their memory, as a result, this study had low ecological validity.
In the study conducted, it's proven that the cognitive interview is more effective with victims and eyewitness because this method of interviewing is one that can retrieve a person's memory also it minimize memory errors and confabulation.
Another strategy in conducting an interview is the use of hypnosis. Hypnosis is a procedure that a person experience due to different changes in sensations, perceptions, thoughts, and actions. This technique helps draws out detailed of recollections from witnesses and victims memory.
An experimental study, Sheehan and Statham, (1988) determine that people who are susceptible to hypnosis find it more difficult to tell lies under hypnosis because, having developed a rapport with the hypnotist, they may subsequently find that misleading the hypnotist creates conflict.
A standard hypnosis procedure involves concentration and attention to various suggestions and instructions. One would expect such attention to be accompanied by both increased activity in the frontal cortex and a reduction in frontal performance (Wagstaff, 2008).
According to the experiment conducted by Geiselman et al, (1985) conducted hypnosis, determine that no memory can be enhanced with hypnosis. Researchers have found that hypnosis can improve memory without showing increased confabulation or greater susceptibility to misleading questions (Geiselman et al.
