Police detectives often begin an interrogation with a belief that the suspect is guilty. This presumption of guilt can apparently influence the way a detective conducts the questioning. The danger here is that, under these conditions, the detectives will seek out information that verifies that belief and overlook information that does not fit. Suspects, in turn, act more defensively and are more likely to look guilty. This process is referred to as
 
  A. interrogation proper.
  B. behavioral confirmation.
  C. a preinterrogation softening up of the suspect.
  D. the interrogator's arsenal.
