Abstract
Children are often required to describe specific details associated with each occurrence of repeated abuse. Research consistently demonstrates that children quickly develop scripts as to what "usually happens" when events are recurring. In this workshop, attendees will be briefly introduced to the research concerning children's memories for repeated events and theoretically-guided interviewing strategies for helping children describe individual occurrences with greater specificity will be discussed.
