The majority of research on investigative interviewing has been on police attempting to solve a crime by obtaining a confession or gathering information, and comparatively fewer studies have examined interviewing at points “downstream” in the process, such as in the courts or correctional system. Furthermore, the focus of the research has been to measure the variable techniques or questioning strategies that produce confessions or information at the expense of analyzing factors related to the interview itself. Thus, we analyzed a sample of 50 corrections-based interviews for “dynamic” interviewing methods and interviewee responses that were measured at three points throughout the interview, and we measured 10 “static” interview factors. In the final multilevel model, we found that productive questioning methods increased a component score that combined interviewee cooperation, engagement, and forthcomingness, the several measures of accusatorial interrogation methods decreased the outcome measure, and the case-level variable of interviewee-initiated interviews increased it.

有关调查性采访的大多数研究都针对警察试图通过获取供认或收集信息来解决犯罪的问题，而较少的研究在此过程的“下游”点（例如法院或教养系统中）对采访进行了研究。此外，研究的重点是衡量产生自白或信息的可变技术或提问策略，而以分析与访谈本身相关的因素为代价。因此，我们分析了50个基于校正的访谈的样本，以了解“动态”访谈方法和受访者的回答，这些访谈是在整个访谈中的三个点进行测量的，我们还测量了10个“静态”访谈因素。在最终的多层次模型中，
