   Sammanfattning : Corroborating evidence is a modern evidence law concept used in furtherance of the administration of justice. The exact meaning of the term is, however, unclear, which is why the concept can be described as both vague and ambiguous. Accordingly, the aim of this thesis was to examine this type of evidence with the help of functional analysis. LÄS MER

4. 3. Memory-Based Approaches to the Examination of Alibis Provided by Innocent Suspects

   Författare :Shiri Portnoy; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Alibis; Innocent suspects; Investigative Interviewing; Memory;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of the current thesis was to extend research on suspect alibis by exploring how the process of providing alibis may be improved for innocent suspects, for whom the provision of inaccurate and incomplete alibis may be detrimental. Across three experimental studies and one exploratory survey, I examined (i) whether memory-based reporting instructions enhance innocent mock suspects’ memory output when reporting past actions (Study I) and evidence that may corroborate their alibi (Study II); (ii) whether a presumption of guilt, communicated to innocent mock suspects by an interviewer prior to providing their alibi, affects their memory output (Study III); and (iii) the beliefs and knowledge of lay people about factors concerning the processes of alibi generation and provision (Study IV).

   Sammanfattning : Covalent bonds between lignin and carbohydrates, forming a matrix referred to as lignin carbohydrate complexes (LCC), remain one of the most controversial topics in wood chemistry. A key issue is whether they are formed during chemical and mechanical pretreatments of the compact wood structure or actually present in wood prior to isolation. LÄS MER
