This article presented the results of a study on finding the answers to four questions. First, what interviewing technique for children gives us the most correct versus incorrect, coached, and suggested information? Second, how is information that is provided by child witnesses received and interpreted by interviewers? Third, what implications do these relations have in terms of the practice of training new interviewers? Fourth, what do these results have to say about theories of memory in general? - Article: Memon, A., & Vartoukian, R. (1996).

HEALTH INFORMATICS DISCUSSION BOARD DUE WEDNESDAY 250 TO 300 WORDS
Discussion – Week 3
Collapse
The Impact of Device Design on Work Flow
To prepare for this Discussion, search the Internet for an example of a mobile device that a health practitioner uses in tasks associated with his/her job.
By Day 4, post a comprehensive response to the following:
- Briefly describe the device and its purpose.
- What are positive outcomes from using this device?
- What are negative outcomes from using this device?
- Should the organization mandate the use of this device? What could happen if the practitioner refused?
- How could you convince the health practitioner that this is a useful device that could positively impact patient care?
