商品簡介
Mistaken eyewitness identification is one of the leading causes of wrongful conviction. Editor Cutler (University of Ontario Institute of Technology) unites US experts in psychology and forensics to explore methods for improving identification accuracy. The book begins by reviewing basics of eyewitness identification research, then presents current work on types of police lineups, eyewitness system variables, effects of administrator knowledge on eyewitness decisions, and field studies of eyewitness memory. The final chapter suggests identification test reforms. Cutler has been conducting research on the psychology of eyewitness identification for the past 25 years.
