Expert judgment of the credibility of children's statements in cases of abuse is frequently requested of specialists in psychology and child and adolescent psychiatry, the latter being mandatory if psychopathology is present in the child. Assessment and judgment must meet standards of quality. Important innovations include a systematic procedure, avoidance of suggestive techniques for exploration and the application of a so-called criteria-based analysis of the child's statement. To exemplify the standards a case of an allegation of false expert judgment is presented.
