Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Concealed Information Test (CIT), also known as the Guilty Knowledge Test, is designed to assess a suspect's responses to details of a crime. It is used to determine if the suspect has knowledge of specific information related to the crime that only the perpetrator is likely to know. This helps investigators to determine if the suspect is likely to be guilty or innocent. The CIT is not used to assess mental health, screen potential employees, or determine the frequency with which an individual lies.
