The '''PEACE method of investigative interviewing''' is a five stage<ref>{{Cite news |first=Terry |last=Gross |author-link=Terry Gross |date=December 5, 2013 |title=Beyond Good Cop/Bad Cop: A Look at Real-Life Interrogations |url=https://www.npr.org/2013/12/05/248968150/beyond-good-cop-bad-cop-a-look-at-real-life-interrogations |work=[[Fresh Air]] |publisher=[[NPR]] |access-date=October 13, 2016}}</ref><ref>Brent Snook, Joseph Eastwood, and W.

It is used to obtain a full account of events from a suspect rather than just seeking a confession - which is the goal of the [[Reid technique]], in which interrogators are more aggressive, accusatory, and threatening in terms of proposing consequences for the suspect's failure to confess to the crime.
The PEACE method, which "encourages more of a dialogue between investigator and suspect"<ref name="PEACE_2015">{{cite news |last=Quan |first=Douglas |date=July 30, 2015 |title=RCMP adopts gentler grilling of suspects |url=https://thestarphoenix.com/news/local-news/rcmp-adopts-gentler-grilling-of-suspects |work=[[The StarPhoenix]] |___location=Saskatoon |access-date=January 13, 2015}}</ref> was developed in Britain in response to the realisation that psychologically coercive techniques often led to [[false confessions]]. In 2015, the [[Royal Canadian Mounted Police]] adopted a new standard influenced by the PEACE model. Sergeant Darren Carr, who trains police with the new approach, described it as "less [[Kojak]] and more [[Dr. Phil]]". There is some resistance to adopting the PEACE model in Canada.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Kelly |first=Christopher E. |last2=Miller |first2=Jeaneé C. |last3=Redlich |first3=Allison D. |last4=Kleinman |first4=Steven M. |date=May 2013 |title=A taxonomy of interrogation methods. |url=http://doi.apa.org/getdoi.cfm?doi=10.1037/a0030310 |journal=Psychology, Public Policy, and Law |language=en |volume=19 |issue=2 |pages=165–178 |doi=10.1037/a0030310 |issn=1939-1528|url-access=subscription }}</ref> This approach avoids the use of deceptive information to overwhelm suspects. It emphasizes information gathering over eliciting confessions and discourages investigators from presuming a suspect's guilt.<ref name="PEACE_2015"/>
