	Children’s suggestibility – the review of research on the misinformation effect among children

	The main aim of this review article was to present the issue of children’s suggestibility. Firstly, the definition of suggestibility and misinformation was discussed. Secondly, the history of children’s suggestibility research was briefly reviewed. The most significant experimental outcomes, concerning, among others, children’s susceptibility to leading questions, children’s susceptibility to misinformation, and individual differences in children’s suggestibility were presented as well. It was also argued that a child as a witness might be accurate, so the interviewer ought to optimize the conditions during an interrogation.
