Principles of Kinesic Interview and Interrogation

Stan B. Walters

(1996) 272 Pages

Principles Of Kinesic Interview and Interrogation explores the complex challenges of basic and advanced interview and interrogation techniques. Using a multi-phase behavioral analysis system of kinesic interviewing this authoritative text shows how kinesic interviewing can be more effective and efficient. It covers the principles of basic kinesic rules, verbal and non-verbal analysis and also illustrates how the same behaviors are exhibited in written statements.
This is a culmination of more than 20 years work. Based on personal experience but, MORE IMPORTANTLY on the scientific data. Nearly half the information currently written in law enforcement interview & interrogation manuals is incorrect and not based on empirical evidence. This book has received critical reviews from recognized researchers in body language, verbal cues and deception. This text is now being used in numerous police academies on local, state & federal levels and has been previewed in Europe to forensic psychologists.

"This book is literally an encyclopedic attempt to detail the use of the MMPI, MMPI-2, and MMPI-A in forensic situations.... Especially significant is material comparing the old MMPI with the two newer versions.... Other issues are dealt with exhaustively, particularly the deposition and cross-examination questions.... Considering that this book is addressed to two readerships, they have done a good job.... Strongly recommended." - American Journal of Forensic Psychiatry
