Eyewitness identification decisions from 1,039 real lineups in England were analyzed.Identification procedures have undergone dramatic change the United Kingdom over recent years.Video are now standard procedure, which each lineup member is seen sequentially.The whole twice before witness can make a decision, and request additional viewings of lineup.A key aim this paper was to investigate association between repeated viewing eyewitness decisions.Repeated strongly associated with increased...

Although the sequential lineup has been proposed as a means of protecting innocent suspects from mistaken identification, little is known about importance various aspects procedure. One potentially important detail that witnesses should not know how many people are in lineup. This sometimes achieved by backloading so believe includes more photographs than it actually does. study aimed to investigate effect on witness decision making. A large sample (N = 833) community-dwelling adults viewed...

Several archival studies of eyewitness identification have been conducted, but the results inconsistent and contradictory. We identify some avoidable pitfalls that present in previous analyses new data address these pitfalls. explored associations among various estimator variables lineup outcomes for 833 "real life" lineups, including 588 lineups which corroborating evidence suspect's guilt existed. Suspect identifications were associated with exposure duration, viewing distance, age...

People are more accurate at recognizing faces of their own race than from other races, a phenomenon known as the other-race effect.Other-race effects have also been reported in some perceptual tasks.Across three experiments, White and Chinese participants completed recognition tests well complete paradigm composite task, which measures participants' abilities to selectively attend target region face while ignoring task-irrelevant face.Each task was with both own-and faces.At group level,...

Abstract School students are growing up in a world with rapidly changing climate, the effects of which will become increasingly apparent during their lifetimes. We designed and pilot tested “You CO 2 ”, STEAM program to encourage reflect on personal impact environment, while also appreciating place within society bring about positive societal change. Over three interlinked workshops, analyzed carbon footprints some everyday activities, they then explored more detail through interacting...

This paper presents a new engagement model for climate change education (CCE) as result of analysing interactive digital narratives (IDNs) created during the You and CO2 Climate Change Education Programme. Young people aged 13–15 from two schools in Wales participated three workshops, which culminated students producing IDNs about using Twine storytelling software. An inductive, grounded-theory approach informed by Bourdieusien principles habitus value was used to explore students’ responses...

When presented with a sequential lineup, witnesses see each member of the lineup individually, essentially making yes/no decision for person shown.An important policy question is whether should be allowed to an additional lap lineup.We investigated impact second on eyewitness decision-making and probative value suspect identifications.We recruited large community sample participants (N = 393), whom viewed target before seeing that did or not include target.A was either required optional.The...

Across 2 studies, the authors asked whether extensive experience in portrait art is associated with face recognition ability. In Study 1, 64 students completed a standardized test before and after completing year-long course that included substantial portraiture training. They found no evidence of an improvement training over above what would be expected by practice alone. 2, investigated possibility more might needed for such advantages to emerge, testing cohort expert artists (N = 28), all...

People recognize faces from their own ethnic group more accurately than other groups. White German (WG) and Turkish participants living in Germany performed an old/new recognition test with several The presence or absence of external features (hair, face contour) retention interval (immediate versus 3 weeks) were manipulated. Own-ethnicity effects (OEEs) found, accuracy response bias varying across the different stimulus sets. 3-week reduced for in-group but not out-group faces, while...

When administering sequential lineups, researchers often inform their participants that only first yes response will count.This instruction differs from the original lineup protocol and how lineups are conducted in practice.Participants (N = 896) viewed a videotaped mock crime simultaneous lineup, with first-yes-counts instruction, or control (with no instruction); was either target-present target-absent.Participants first-yescounts condition were less likely to identify suspect more reject...

Abstract Automatic stereotypes and emotional state can affect cognitive processes such as attention, perception, memory. Two experiments were carried out to investigate whether anxiety of Middle Easterners influence attention recognition memory in White participants. A dot‐probe procedure was used, with Eastern faces stimuli. The results showed that anxious participants who exposed terrorism‐related words a visual bias toward faces, more accurate at recognizing both faces. Non‐anxious...

Mental representations of unfamiliar faces may rely, to a greater or lesser extent, on pictorial cues that are closely linked the specific image studied, and structural allow for recognition across various transformations. Here, we test participants' ingroup outgroup faces, manipulating transformation (pose) exposure duration. The results showed changes in pose reduced accuracy but not faces. Overall, increased as duration increased. Accurate responses were made more rapidly than inaccurate...
