It’s Good to Know: Kids in Court

Researchers from Cornell University have found that the court testimony of children is often more reliable than that of adults. The study found that adults tend to interpret - or misinterpret - events in their minds when they process them into memories, which sometimes results in false accounts. Kids, on the other hand, are less likely to interpret what they see, because their brains have not yet developed that ability. The result: They remember exactly what happened.
