  1. The GQM – can you see the pattern? Andy Griffiths Dr. Becky Milne University of Portsmouth United Kingdom

  2. The use of questions • Accurate information ‘lifeblood of investigation’ (Stewart, 1985) • Negative effect of inappropriate questions established (Loftus &Palmer, 1974) • Previous research has ‘scored’ types of questions only • Appropriate question strategy is vital

  3. Open Probing Appropriate yes/no Inappropriate yes/no Leading Multiple Forced choice Opinion /statement Types of question

  4. GQM Time

  5. GQM Time Eachlineallocatedto question type e.g. ‘open’

  6. GQM Time Top 3 lines are appropriate questions Bottom 5 lines are inappropriate questions

  7. GQM Time As each question is asked it is plotted onto the correct line building the ‘question map’

  8. GQM – ASSAULT (SUSPECT) Time

  9. GQM – ASSAULT (SUSPECT) Time 121 questions = 45 minute interview, majority ‘probing’ (3>1)

  10. GQM – ASSAULT (SUSPECT) Time Sequence - open, probe (3), app closed, probe, open, probe(3) etc

  11. GQM – ASSAULT (SUSPECT) Time Majority productive but 27 ‘inappropriate closed’= training need

  12. GQM – MURDER 1 (SUSPECT) 8 17 23 2 6 12 15 21

  13. GQM – MURDER 1 (SUSPECT) 8 17 23 2 6 12 15 21 Question ratio 2>1 (probing /open)

  14. GQM – MURDER 1 (SUSPECT) 8 17 23 2 6 12 15 21 No inappropriate questions

  15. GQM – MURDER 1 (SUSPECT) 8 17 23 2 6 12 15 21 Sequence - open, probing, app closed, probing(3), open, probing(3), open etc

  16. GQM – MURDER 2 21 24 27 29 30 34 36 39 41 Topic – open, probe, app closed, probe, app closed, probe(6), app closed, probe(3) etc

  17. GQM – MURDER 2 21 24 27 29 30 34 36 39 41 Topic question ratio 13>1 (probing/open)

  18. GQM – CHILD ABUSE SUSPECT

  19. GQM – CHILD ABUSE SUSPECT Question ratio - 3>1 probing/open but 3>1 leading/open and 71/121 inappropriate

  20. GQM – CHILD ABUSE SUSPECT Random pattern

  21. GQM – CHILD ABUSE SUSPECT Accuses suspect

  22. GQM – CHILD ABUSE SUSPECT ‘I’ve interviewed this girl and she’s telling the truth’

  23. GQM – CHILD ABUSE SUSPECT 5/11 open questions after accusing the suspect

  24. Conclusions • Scoring of question type frequency is a very basic method of evaluation

  25. Conclusions • Scoring of question type frequency is a very basic method of evaluation • Context of questions is more informative than an isolated definition of one question

  26. Conclusions • Scoring of question type frequency is a very basic method of evaluation • Context of questions is more informative than an isolated definition of one question • Context of questions is more relevant than the number of any one question type

  27. Conclusions • Scoring of question type frequency is a very basic method of evaluation • Context of questions is more informative than an isolated definition of one question • Context of questions is more relevant than the number of any one question type • The GQM identifies patterns of questions associated with both productive and unproductive interviews
