کاربرد پرسشی‌ها در بازجویی

گفتمان موجود در فرایند بازجویی از حیطه‌های جالب و ارزشمند انواع پژوهش‌های زبانی است. آنچه که گفتمان و تعامل بازجویی را شکل می‌دهد، توالی پرسش و پاسخ‌ها است. نگارندگان در جستار حاضر به بررسی و تقسیم‌بندی انواع صورت‌های پرسشی در فرایند بازجویی پرداخته و همچنین مولفه کاربردشناختی «میزان کنترل‌کنندگی» را در بررسی‌ها لحاظ کرده‌اند. لازم به ذکر است که داده‌های پژوهش حاضر بر اساس داده‌های متشکل از بیست‌و‌یک پرونده کیفری در سه شعبه از دادسرای شهر شیراز تشکیل شده‌ است. تحلیل‌ها موید این نکته است که توزیع انواع سوال‌ها در گفتمان بازجویی به میزان چشم‌گیری با یکدیگر تفاوت دارد، به گونه‌ای که از شش نوع صورت‌های پرسشی اطلاعی گسترده، اطلاعی محدود، اختیاری، بله/ خیر، اخباری و تاکیدی بیشترین کاربرد را به ترتیب اطلاعی‌های محدود و اطلاعی‌های گسترده به خود اختصاص می‌دهند و به لحاظ کنترل‌کنندگی نیز دارای کم‌ترین میزان می‌باشند. دلیل این امر را نیز می‌توان به بافت و فضای بازجویی در مرحله دادرسی نسبت داد که به موجب آن بازپرس قصد دست‌یابی هرچه بیشتر به اطلاعات و جمع‌آوری ادله برای مرحله متعاقب یعنی دادگاه را دارد. از دیگر یافته‌های پژوهش حاضر نیز می‌توان به این نکته اشاره داشت که پرسشی‌های اخباری که عموما در بسیاری از پژوهش‌ها در دسته پرسش‌های بسته قرار می‌گیرند، بر اساس داده‌های حاضر در دسته پرسش‌های باز قرار می‌گیرند.

Questions Usage in Interrogation

Extended Abstract;;Introduction;;The discourse in the interrogation process is one of the most interesting and valuable areas of language research. What creates the discourse of an interrogation is the sequence of questions and answers among the participants in an interrogation interaction. The interrogator, including the police, the interrogator, the judge, etc., uses the Q A strategy to control the conversation and interact with respondents, including witnesses, defendants, informants, etc. This study sought to answer the following questions: 1. How many questions can be used in the interrogation process? What is the degree of control and the pragmatic role of each question?;Among the studies on the use of language in the judicial system, it seems that the discourse of interrogation and verbal interaction in this area has not been seriously discussed, and in this respect, the present study may provide insights into the interrogation process and the participants in the interaction which has not been investigated so far.;;Review of Literature;;In this study, the authors according to Woodbury (1994) divided the questions used by the interrogator in the interrogation process into six categories: 1) broad and narrow questions, 2) whquestions, 3) optional questions, 4) yes/no questions, 5) declarative questions, and 6) tag questions and determining and discussing the pragmatic role of each questions by relying on the objective figure in data. In the (English) grammar, the question clauses are distinct from the other types of clauses (declarative, imperative) and are divided into five types according to Biber, Johansson, Leech, Conrad and Finegan (1999): Whquestions (also called polar questions), yes/no questions, alternative questions, tag questions, declarative questions. Huddleston and Polem (2002) divided the questions into two categories of open and close, based on form and their expected answer. The open category includes whquestions and the closed category includes yes/no questions, alternative questions, declarative questions, and tag questions (2002). Maley and Fahey (1991) also briefly divide the speaker apos;s purpose of the question into two categories: 1) Informationseeking questions, and 2) Confirmationseeking questions (1991). In fact, the purpose of asking informationseeking questions is to gain as much information as possible about the subject under discussion, and with the confirmationseeking questions seeking to confirm the arguments or assumptions in the mind of the speaker. Hefer (2005) also considers the purpose of the informationseeking questions to be in two (implicit) requests from the interrogator: a request for narration and a request for transparency (2005). Among the major studies on the types of questioning strategies can also be mentioned Woodbury (1984), which examines the types of questioning strategies used in court and finally provides a continuum of the degree of control over the types of questions. Archer (2005) also presents a new version of the Woodbury Controller continuum while examining the different features of interrogation questions.;Haqbin and Najafi (in press) also examine a variety of verbal strategies for interrogating the interpreter, including verbal strategies such as question formulation, repeated questioning, quotation marks, contrasting, the use of the phrase khob as a marker of discourse. Haqbin, Najafi and Jamali (2016) proved that the genre of speech in the trial space in Iran is a hybrid genre consisting of two narrative and antinarrative genres.;;Method;;The data was gathered from 21 criminal cases at the trial/interrogation phase in three criminal branches of Shiraz Public Prosecutor apos;s Office. The authors analyzed a total of 558 question clauses. They first divided the types of questions into six categories of broad and narrow whquestions, alternative questions, yes/no, declarative and tag questions, and then presented a distribution diagram of the types of questions mentioned in the interrogation discourse.;;Results and Discussion;;The authors analyzed a total of 558 question clauses. They first divided the types of questions into six categories of broad and narrow whquestions, alternative questions, yes/no, declarative and tag questions. The point to be noted is that the division of questions is based on the speaker apos;s usual expectation of the audience apos;s response, and the audience, or in particular the defendant, may not answer the interrogator apos;s expected response to the question and reformulate his or her answer, that is, implicitly seeks to divert the subject of discussion. Findings of the present study indicate that declarative questions are classified as open questions, which in many studies fall under the close questions, and consequently, the level of control is lower, which means less control than the other questions. Finally, the authors provide ad categorization of the questions used in the interrogation process in the prosecution as well as the continuation of the level of control.;;Conclusion;;The authors have examined and divided the types of interrogation forms in the interrogation process and have also taken into account the pragmatic role of the amount of control in the investigations. The analysis confirms that the distribution of the types of questions in the interrogation discourse differs significantly from one another in that among the six types of question forms of broad whquestions, narrow whquastions, alternative questions, yes/no questions, declarative questions and affirmative questions, narrow whquestions and broad whquestions respectively are most frequently used and are the least controlling (questions).;The reason for this can be attributed to the context and the space of the interrogation phase, where the investigator intends to gain as much information and evidence as possible for the subsequent trial. Other findings of the present study also indicate that the declarative questions that generally fall into the category of close questions in most of the studies are classified as open questions.
