All information regarding 103 Dutch sexual abuse cases was analyzed using the VC, the second part of the Statement Validity Analysis procedure. The fulfillment of the VC items was compared for four different age groups. Only two VC items differed significantly between the age groups. There was only a weak relationship between the fulfillment of the CBCA criteria and the VC items together and the outcome of the cases. Results suggest that Statement Validity Analysis cannot yet be used as a scientifically validated instrument for judging the truthfulness of allegations of child sexual abuse. The SVA procedure was never intended to be a test, but was developed as a systematic framework. Its value lies in the systematization of the interview and evaluation procedure, which helps to organize data and inferences as well as assist in weighting various data. Tables, references
