I think in keeping with the more immediate nature (I resist the word: simple) of TFT, if it were physical torture... I mean Physically Enhanced Interrogation, I might have them simply save verses ST; and for Psychological Interrogation, I might have them save versus IQ - modified by any applicable talents.

Or... perhaps in the case of generally resisting Interrogation Techniques, one might express the concept of *Willpower*, by adding ST and IQ together (averaging a 20 points total) and then, begin the process of resisting the interrogation at 3d6... then 4d6... then 5d6... until the character's will has been broken, or the Interrogation Technique has reached it's effective limit without breaking the subjects will.

And, Interrogation Technique would have to be defined by it's upper effective-limit in how many dice it requires to save against at maximum application.

Some Interrogation Techniques are decidedly less effective then others; as demonstrated Here
