Policing Insight - Subscription at source 17/12/2019 News Context Manipulation in Police Interviews: A Field Experiment Recent writing and research on interrogation has highlighted the potential importance of the physical context in which the interview takes place. Whereas manuals and self-reports from police investigators indicate how they can leverage the space to maximize control over subjects, arguments for non-coercive manipulation of the room context are emerging in the literature. For instance, in laboratory settings, positive effects on interview outcomes have been demonstrated where alterations were made to the room’s physical space. In collaboration with a large American police department, interviews with witnesses to serious violent crime were randomly assigned to an experimental or control context. The experimental room was altered to create a space that was intended to be more comfortable than the control context of a standard interrogation room. Seventy-seven post-interview questionnaires were completed by detectives and 50 were completed by witnesses that included items related to the interpersonal dynamics and how much the witnesses contributed to the investigation.
