Suggestibility

Using techniques of character invalidation (i.e. humiliation), shouting to induce feelings of guilt, fear and suggestibility.

In Europe, through his clinical and forensic work, Gisli Gudjonsson noted that some individuals seemed to be more suggestible than others. This approach assumed that suggestibility is a trait and led to the development of a model of interrogative suggestibility (Gudjonsson & Clark, 1986).
