RT Article T1 Parents’ knowledge and attitudes about youths’ interrogation rights JF Psychology, crime & law VO 23 IS 8 SP 777 OP 793 A1 Cleary, Hayley M. D. A2 Warner, Todd C. LA English YR 2017 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1736001329 AB Some states and police agencies require youth to consult with parents before or during interrogation by police, yet these policies rely on the untested assumption that parents themselves are knowledgeable about police interrogation practices and youths’ rights. This study assessed knowledge of, and attitudes about, juvenile interrogations in a sample of parents (N = 294) recruited from urban locales. On average, parents correctly answered fewer than half of the questions about juvenile interrogation practices; knowledge about parental notification procedures was especially poor. At the same time, parents strongly endorsed youths’ rights to support (including support from parents) during police questioning contexts and only moderately endorsed youths’ decision-making autonomy, even for older youth who are legally adults.
