Answers should include a definition of interrogation as any police behaviors likely to produce an incriminating response from the suspect. The police are not permitted to use physical abuse, inherent coercion, or psychological manipulation. The police are required to provide Miranda warnings to arrested suspects prior to interrogation and must allow suspects to have legal counsel present during interrogation.
