SE3R
SE3R is a method of that enables to capture and analyse rapidly ans comprehensively the fine-grain detail in any form if written or spoken text.

Survey
The dictionary definition of 'survey' is look carefully and thoroughly; produce a map,plan or description. Practitioner must:

Get a total grasp


 * Apply a combination of information-processing techniques and skills that increase attention to detail, grasp of detail, and remembrance of detail.
 * Process ‘straight through’: read/listen to/observe disclosure from ‘beginning to end’.
 * Not go back to ‘go over again’.
 * Not attempt to rehearse/commit to memory.

Image the detail
 * Create a visual image in your “mind’s eye”.
 * Create the utterance in you “mind’s ear”.
 * Only image the disclosed detail.
 * Not imagine: imagination involves imaging – adding - detail that is not disclosed.

Spot and “guggle” at key ideas
 * Speakers vocally stress the key idea.
 * “Guggling” = nodding of head with/without acknowledging sound, e.g. mm; uh-huh.

“Mentally echo”
 * “Mental echoing” = saying the detail silently to yourself.
 * Typical examples of “mentally echoed” detail such as names, relationships, addresses, times, numbers,	frequency, durations, emotions, attitudes, physical state

Flow of information
 * Regulate information flow prevents practitioner being overwhelmed by detail.
 * Act as soon as you feel your ‘memory glass’ is full.

Extract
Comprehensively capture the detail by reading/listening to observe again the unfolding detail – regulating the flow. Then, identify and enter the three different types of detail in the appropriate area of the SE3R sheet.

Background knowledge


 * Knowledge bins (KBs)

KB = sum total of detail disclosed on the ‘discussible topic’.

Narrative detail (events, episodes, continuous states)


 * Event line

Commentary


 * Adjacent to the detail or the point commentary occurs. Annotate as you go along:
 * Anomalies
 * Areas for probing (expansion; explanation)
 * Areas for investigation/checking.

THE OUTCOME: An SE3R.

Read
Check the accuracy and your grasp of the detail in your SE3R.


 * 1) Read all the KBs.
 * 2) Amend as necessary.
 * 3) Read Event Line detail.
 * 4) Amending as necessary.

THE OUTCOME: A secure remembrance of comprehensively captured detail.

Review
Analyse the detail in your SE3R and use this to plan your next steps.

Identify and annotate:
 * Anomalies
 * Areas for probing (expansion; explanation)
 * Areas for investigation/checking.

As applicable use your annotations to create an action plan, e.g.
 * Wants Analysis: list of investigative actions
 * Interview plan: themes/topics for probing.

Respond
Turn your analysis into action.

If you are working from a document/recording:


 * Implement your Wants Analysis, i.e. conduct/task further investigation/investigative interviewing
 * Create a composite SE3R (=combination of individual SE3Rs).
 * Plan and prepare for a forthcoming interview.

If in an interview:

Respond appropriately to annotated anomalies and areas needing expansion or explanation.

Common anomalies that occur during probing include:


 * Answering a question with a question
 * “Diverting” (directing you to put the question to someone else)
 * “Sabotaging” (arguing; abuse; threatening)
 * Measured disclosure (minimal disclosure of detail)
 * “Blanking” an echo probe
 * “Pat” responses
