On the first day of the #EAPL2025 conference in Vilnius, @anneliesvrede.bsky.social presents the recently developed ALLP training on cross-cultural communication for interviewers @vucriminologie.bsky.social
Excited to share that I've been awarded an NWO Open Competition M grant for research on expert witness reports in legal psychology, allowing the fantastic @evanrosmalen.bsky.social to start her PhD @vucriminologie.bsky.social @vuamsterdam.bsky.social! allp.nl/nwo-grant-fo...
π¨ Just published! Our case study on the ICTR reveals how cultural background shapes courtroom communication. Witnesses from non-WEIRD contexts often gave indirect responses, easily misinterpreted as unclear or evasive by legal professionals @anneliesvrede.bsky.social doi.org/10.1108/JCP-...
New article alert! π¨ Our field study on South African eyewitness reports shows six main cultural differences, regarding detailedness, confidence, assertiveness and more. Published open-access! @anneliesvrede.bsky.social dx.doi.org/10.1108/JCP-...
About to start our #SARMAC2025 symposium on eyewitness memory in cross-cultural contexts in the Fountain Suite with @anneliesvrede.bsky.social @gabidb.bsky.social Nkansah Aankwam @lorrainehope.bsky.social and Qi Wang @officialsarmac.bsky.social @sarmac2025.bsky.social
How do people from different cultures remember and report what they have witnessed? @gabidb.bsky.social explored this question in her PhD research with a cleverly designed cross-cultural experiment. #eyewitness #memory @amslablegpsy.bsky.social @vucriminologie.bsky.social allp.nl/the-way-we-r...
