Thematic Q Flashcards
Haw and Fisher (2004)
High Administrator-Witness Contact (sitting together) means witness is sig. more likely to make an ID in line with the administrators beliefs on who the suspect is compared to low contact - lab study = low eco. validity, student Ps, photo lineups
Sharman and Quiroz (2016)
Double-Blind procedure sig. reduces the likelihood that the witness will choose a lineup member consistent with the administrators believes on who the suspect is (in target absent lineups)
Wright et al (2001)
demonstrated cross-race effect in the UK and Cape Town, where black/ white confederate approached Ps and spoke for 15-30s before a researcher approached and asked for ID using forced choice simultaneous photo lineup - field study but not police procedure
Hehman et al (2010)
Out group effect on ID accuracy, whereby accuracy is worse for any salient out group irrespective of another (race/ school affiliation)
Carpenter & Krendl (2016)
In group effect on witness reliability, whereby a witness to in group on in group crime is more accepting of misleading information than witnesses to out group crime - but crime shown on slides, student Ps
Fisher and Geiselman (1992)
Enhanced Cognitive Interview, involves reinstating the context, changing perspectives, changing orders
Memon et al (2010)
meta-analysis shows enhanced cognitive interview is effective in adults
Memon et al (1998)
argue that children may struggle with the instructions in the cognitive interview, specifically changing perspectives
Verkampt & Ginet (2009)
Enhanced Cognitive Interview more effective than the standard structured interview when questioning children, and change order instruction reduced subsequent acceptance of misinformation - used interactive painting session
LaPaglia et al (2014)
Cognitive Interview increases subsequent acceptance of misleading information and therefore suggestibility
Piaget (1967)
Conservation
Mehler-Broaddus et al (1998)
ability to conserve both number and mass linked to less acceptance of misleading information when then questioning about completing the tasks - high eco. validity, but no stress
Mehler & Bever (1967)
children as young as 5 years olds can conserve
Valentine et al (2003)
archival study on London lineups shows no cross race effect, but not causal, no control
Benton et al (2006)
90% of experts say the cross race effect is reliable enough to use in court as expert testimony
