CI DT - economical issue

• A further limitation of the Cl is that it can be time - consuming.
• Evidence + Elaboration

  • For instance, Mehmon et al. (1998) reports that police believe the "change in perspective" technique causes witnesses to speculate about the event, which may cause distress.
  • This means that it is necessary for witnesses to have time to relax and establish trust with the officer.

  • Additionally, officers may need training for this resulting in economic drawbacks.
