Forensic Psychology A Pathway to Justice: Effects of Courtroom Questioning Styles and Memory Recall on the Reliability of Eyewitness Testimony A Simulation from Nigeria

This groundbreaking study explores how courtroom questioning styles and memory recall impact the reliability of eyewitness testimony in Nigeria’s judicial system. Dr. Tersoo Shaapera presents a simulated trial experiment that reveals how cross-examination and psychological factors can distort memory and compromise justice. Blending theory, law, and empirical evidence, the book calls for the integration of forensic psychologists into court proceedings—a practice standard in the U.S., U.K., and South Africa. A must-read for lawyers, judges, law students, psychologists, and justice reform advocates.
