a. trained medical professionals and social workers are substantially better at assessing whether young children are providing reliable testimony than are untrained adults
b. young children tend to provide more reliable testimony when the first individual who interviews them spends time getting to know them (e.g., playing with them and asking about their favorite activities)
c. realistic props such as anatomically correct dolls and drawings improved the accuracy of testimony
d. many children ended up "remembering" false events that were consistent with the beliefs of the social worker who interviewed them

Ans: d. many children ended up "remembering" false events that were consistent with the beliefs of the social worker who interviewed them
