Testimonial Competence

Testimonial Competence is a legal-psychological construct that denotes the formal capacity of an individual to provide admissible and reliable testimony in a court of law, distinguished from other forensic capacities by its specific focus on the witness's ability to observe, remember, communicate, and understand the obligation to tell the truth.
