Zusammenfassung:	The limitations of the descriptive typology in an article by S. M. Kassin (Mar 1997) is that it focuses almost exclusively on police interrogation strategies as the major source of coercion for producing a false confession to a crime. McCann feels it is necessary to broaden the conceptual framework of false confessions to include other coercive factors that may impact a particular case.
