Abstract

Forenzički intervju predstavlja razvojnim obilježjima prilagođenu i s pravnog gledišta pouzdanu, dokaznu metodu prikupljanja informacija koje su potrebne za istražne postupke ili suđenja u kojima djeca sudjeluju kao svjedoci ili žrtve. Intervju provode specijalno osposobljeni stručnjaci primjenjujući istražene i u praksi potvrđene metode usustavljene protokolima. Vješto provedena forenzička ispitivanja ključ su dobivanja s pravnog gledišta nepobitnih iskaza, a to je jedino moguće ostvariti ukoliko ista provode educirani ispitivači kojima je zadovoljena potreba za stručnom podrškom. U Republici Hrvatskoj forenzička ispitivanja provode se na sudovima od strane stručnih suradnika izvanpravne struke. Ovim istraživanjem ispitalo se iskustvo uporabe NICHD protokola za provođenje forenzičkih ispitivanja na nacionalno reprezentativnim uzorku stručnih suradnika izvanpravne struke na županijskim i općinskim sudovima u Republici Hrvatskoj koji ga u svojoj praksi koriste. Rezultati pokazuju da su stručni suradnici općenito zadovoljni protokolom te načelno nemaju poteškoća s pridržavanjem određenih faza protokola, no kako je institucionalna stručna podrška u vidu kontinuiranih edukacija i supervizija nepostojeća i potrebna.

Abstract (english)

The forensic interview can be defined as a developmentally appropriate and legally sound method of acquiring child testimonies, that is necessary for the investigative process and criminal trials in which children are primary witnesses or victims. These interviews are conducted by experts, specifically educated to use one of the forensic investigative protocols. Skillfully conducted forensic interviews can be considered crucial for acquiring legally sound testimonies, and achieving this is only possible if interviews are conducted by well-educated experts that have access to professional support. In the Republic of Croatia forensic interviews are conducted at county and municipal courts by expert associates of the extralegal profession. This research gave nationally representative insight into expert associate's experience of NICHD protocol usage while conducting forensic interviews. Findings have shown that expert associates are complacent with protocol by itself, that they don’t have difficulties with adherence to it, but that there is evident nonexistence of institutional professional support, mainly in form of education and supervision.
