ESSAY ON: Eyewitness Testimony And Recovered Memories: Can We Trust Them?

Number of Pages 3

This research paper: 3 pages in length. Children play an entertaining game of telephone operator, where one child whispers a short story to the next child in line, who then whispers the story – to the best of his or her recollection – to the third child in line. When the last child finally receives the story, it has typically been modified so drastically from the original version that it is wholly unrecognizable, a phenomenon of human nature that speaks to the differing perspectives any two people might have of a single situation. The same holds true with relying upon eyewitness testimony and recovered memories as being concrete evidence in legal proceedings. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
