ABSTRACT

A sugestionabilidade infantil é influenciada pela capacidade de memória, idade ou desejabilidade social. Este estudo teve como objetivo estudar estes fatores em três grupos de crianças com idades de 5/6 anos, 8/9 anos e 10/11 anos. Para tanto procedemos à construção de uma escala de avaliação da sugestionabilidade infantil baseada na Escala de Sugestionabilidade de Gudjonsson (GSS; Gudjonsson, 1997). Os resultados obtidos revelaram que as crianças mais novas foram as mais sugestionáveis, fenômeno que parece estar associado ao elevado grau de desejabilidade social das suas respostas. Relativamente à memória fonológica, verificamos que a sua menor amplitude esteve também relacionada com maior sugestionabilidade infantil. Sugere-se que as variáveis memória e desejabilidade social sejam cuidadosamente consideradas no momento de obtenção do testemunho de crianças. (AU)


Children's suggestibility is influenced by several factors such as memory, age or social desirability. The main objective of this study was to analyze how these factors are associated with the degree of suggestibility in 5/6 year-old, 8/9 year-old and 10/11 year-old children. For a suggestibility measure, a new scale based on the Gudjonsson Suggestibility Scale was developed (GSS; Gudjonsson, 1997). Results showed that: younger children are more suggestible than older children; a higher degree of social desirability is associated with stronger suggestibility responses; and a smaller memory span is related to greater children's suggestibility. Conclusions highlight that memory and social desirability should be analyzed carefully when eyewitness accounts of children are considered. (AU)

ABSTRACT

O presente trabalho visa fornecer evidências científicas da susceptibilidade das memórias a distorção através do estudo das falsas memórias (lembranças de eventos que, na realidade, não ocorreram) para situações emocionalmente carregadas. Foi usada a versão brasileira dos instrumentos e procedimentos de Cahill, Prins, Weber, e McGaugh e adaptada por Neufeld, Brust e Stein para a investigação do efeito da emoção na memória e nas falsas memórias. O experimento investigou o efeito de sugestão de falsa informação em 138 alunos universitários. O procedimento também testou um material de sugestão de falsa informação congruente com a história na forma de um artigo de jornal. Os resultados indicam que a memória verdadeira não foi imune a erros e distorções, apesar de aparentemente ter sido auxiliada pela emocionalidade do evento. Ou seja, a sugestão de falsa informação parece ter auxiliado na discriminação dos itens sugeridos.


The current essay forwards scientific evidence on the susceptibility of distorted memories by assessing false memories (remembrance of events which actually did not occur) in emotionally arousing situations. The Brazilian version of the Cahill, Prins, Weber and McGaugh's instruments and procedures adapted by Neufeld, Brust and Stein on the evaluation of the effect of emotion on memory and false memories were used. Misinformation effect on memory of 138 college students has been investigated. Misinformation material congruent to the story given in a newspaper article has also been tested. Results suggest that true memory has not been immune from errors and distortions even though it has apparently been supported by emotionally arousing events. In fact, misinformation seems to have assisted memory in the discrimination of the items suggested.


El presente trabajo tiene el objetivo de proporcionar evidencias científicas de la susceptibilidad de la memoria y su distorsión a través del estudio de las falsas memorias (recuerdo de eventos que en realidad, no ocurrieron) para situaciones emocionalmente intensas. En este estudio se utilizó la versión brasileña de los instrumentos y procedimientos Cahill, Prins, Weber y McGaugh adaptada por Neufeld, Brust y Stein para la investigación del efecto de la emoción en la memoria y las falsas memorias. El experimento investigo el efecto de sugestión de falsa información en 138 alumnos universitarios. El procedimiento también evaluó un material de sugestión de falsa información congruente con la historia en forma de un artículo de periódico. Los resultados indican que la memoria verdadera no fue inmune a errores y distorsiones a pesar de aparentemente haber sido auxiliada para la emocionalidad del evento, o sea, la sugestión de la falsa información parece haber auxiliado la discriminación de los ítems sugeridos.

ABSTRACT

Este ensayo hace una serie de reflexiones importantes acerca del papel del testigo experto y del consultor técnico privado en el campo de la Psicología y Psiquiatría Pericial, donde el testigo experto puede ser un útil educador del Tribunal, dando un marco del cuerpo de conocimientos existente acerca de la naturaleza del abuso sexual infantil, reacciones comunes de las víctimas, patrones de revelación, memoria y sugestibilidad de los niños, y pueden ayudar a evaluar objetivamente la credibilidad de casos particulares. Sin embargo, con mucha facilidad el testigo experto puede hacer que sus puntos de vista correspondan a los intereses de la parte que los contrata. Entonces el estatus del experto se convierte en el de un testigo cuyo fin es lograr la victoria de una de las partes, aún al costo de la consideración de todos los datos científicos y profesionales existentes lo que puede devenir en el proceso de revictimización a través del sistema judicial por lo que debe insistirse en la necesidad de un compromiso ético y social con la infancia y adolescencia.


This essay brings to attention the role of the expert witness and the private technical consultant in the fields of Psychological and Psychiatric Expertise, in which the expert witness can be a useful educator to the Tribune, giving a background of the existing body of knowledge of the nature of sexual abuse of a minor, common reactions of victims, patterns of revelation, the child memory and suggestibility, and they can help to objectively evaluate the credibility in particular cases. Nevertheless, very easily can the expert witness make his or her points of view match those of the part who has hired him or her. Therefore, the status of the expert becomes that of a witness whose purpose is victory of one of the parts, even at the expense of the consideration of all the scientific and professional data existent that could turn out into the process of revictimizing through the judicial system, which is why an ethical and social commitment is needed towards children and adolescents.
