“…This is reflected in some clichés about persons with intellectual disability that suggest they would not be capable of making up complex lies and, therefore, would be more believable (Bottoms, Nysse-Carris, Harris, & Tyda, 2003). These clichés carry a negative charge, however, that results in persons with ID being viewed as witnesses who are less credible and less capable of giving valid testimony (Henry, Ridley, Perry, & Crane, 2011;Peled, Iarocci, & Connolly, 2004;Sabsey & Doe, 1991;Stobbs & Kebbell, 2003;Tharinger, Horton, & Millea, 1990;Valenti-Hein & Schwartz, 1993), which makes persons with ID more vulnerable to crimes (González, Cendra, & Manzanero, 2013). Peled et al (2004) explored the perceived credibility of young persons with ID who were required to give testimony in a legal setting.…”
