{ "pk": 26898, "title": "Using Measurement Models to Understand Eyewitness Identification", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Much research effort has been expended improving police\nlineup procedures used in collecting eyewitness identification\nevidence. Sequential presentation of lineup members, in\ncontrast to simultaneous presentation, has been posited to\nincrease witness accuracy, though analyses based in Signal\nDetection Theory (SDT) have challenged these claims. A\npossible way to clarify the effect of presentation format on\nwitness accuracy is to develop SDT-based measurement\nmodels, which characterise decision performance in terms of\npsychologically-relevant parameters, particularly discrimin-\nability and response bias. A model of the sequential lineup\ntask was developed with a “first-above-criterion” decision\nrule, alongside a simultaneous model with a “maximum\nfamiliarity” decision rule. These models were fit to a corpus\nof data comparing simultaneous and sequential lineup\nperformance. Results showed no difference in\ndiscriminability between the procedures and more\nconservative responding for the sequential lineup. Future\nwork will examine criterion setting in the sequential lineup\nand model alternative decision rules.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Eyewitness identification; Signal Detection;\nmemory" } ], "section": "Talks: Papers", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3396h55q", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Matthew", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Kaesler", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Adelaide", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "John", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Dunn", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Western Australia", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Carolyn", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Semmler", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Adelaide", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2017-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/26898/galley/16534/download/" } ] }
