    Answer:d. authentic-coerced false confession.

    Explanation: Authentic-coerced false confession occurs when a person has been exposed to a grueling, suggestive and misleading interrogation, which has been prolonged for a long time such that a person begin to believe that they may have actual committed the offence. They may even start to have false memories of what actual happened because of all the information that has been suggested to them.

    Answer: D. Authentic-coerced false confession

    Explanation: Confession is the open admittance of having done something usually something bad often related to crime. False confession is an admission of guilt for a crime for which the confessor did not commit. False confessions are usually (can be) induced through coercion (actual or threatened force; interrogation tactics that may cause an individual to doubt their memories) or incompetency of the accused. Authentic-coerced false confession is one such that the confessor becomes convinced that he or she may have actually committed the crime in question. This is sometimes temporary and is widespread among the youth and for this reason there's established set of rules-called "confession rules"-to ascertain, and subsequently reject, false confessions of any type.
