Abstract

The term 'false allegation', when applied to rape and assault, is a difficult concept for forensic medical examiners and the police to comprehend. Reliable evidence about how prevalent these allegations are is hard to obtain. This paper is a transcript of the oral presentation given at the 6th Cross-Channel Conference in Clinical Forensic Medicine held in Southampton, May 14-16th, 1998.
