“…As allegations of sexual abuse have increased, key indicators or "credibility enhancers" have been delineated. The most frequently cited indicators include: a detailed description of events, with explicit sexual information that is developmentally advanced, containing contextual, distinguishing and affective details; a verbail description which elaborates a progression of activities over time and may include elements of secrecy, bribery, pressure and/or coercion; consistency in description of major details; sexual themes, reenactments and description of sexual events portrayed across modalities (play, drawings, dolls); changes in functioning, with symptoms indicative of stress and/or age and inappropriate sexual behavior; events told from a child's perspective; congruence between affect and description of events; delayed disclosure, which may be accompanied by retractions; differentiation of fact from fantasy; medical indicators; and supporting evidence (Corwin 1990;De Young, 1986;HMSO, 1988;Faller, 1984Faller, , 1990Jones & McGraw, 1987;Jones & McQuiston, 1988;Schetky & Green, 1988;Summit, 1983;Wehrspann, Steinhauer & Klajner, 1987;Witt, 1990).…”
