概括
目击者识别的准确性更好地反映在立即的信心,而不是响应时间. 这在不同的记忆强度和识别程序中都是如此,有助于法律调查.
科学领域:
- 认知心理学 认知心理学
- 法医心理学 法医心理学
- 法律心理学 法律心理学
背景情况:
- 目击者识别 (ID) 的准确性在法律程序中至关重要.
- 更快的ID和高可信度与更高的准确性有关,但它们的相对重要性仍在争论中.
- 了解这些因素在不同的记忆强度和ID程序中是必不可少的.
研究的目的:
- 为了确定信心或响应时间是否是目击者ID准确性的更好指标.
- 检查记忆强度和ID程序 (展示与阵容) 如何影响这种关系.
- 评估决策类型 (ID与拒绝) 对这些准确性指标的影响.
主要方法:
- 进行了四个预先注册的实验.
- 操纵目标内存强度 (编码时间,图像质量) 和ID程序 (展示,配列具有不同的填充质量).
- 分析了ID和拒绝决策的信心精度 (CA) 和响应时间精度 (RTA) 之间的关系.
主要成果:
- 正确的目击者身份证件比假身份证件更快,排队与展示相比,排队的差异更大.
- 对于那些进行ID的人来说,观察到强烈的正信度-准确性 (CA) 关系,而响应时间-准确性 (RTA) 关系较弱.
- 无论是CA和RTA的关系对于拒绝都较弱,但CA仍然是一个比RTA更强的预测因素.
结论:
- 立即的信心是目击者ID准确性的更可靠指标,而不是响应时间.
- 这一发现不管犯罪者面部记忆的质量如何,都是如此.
- 在不同的记忆和程序条件下,信任判断似乎更强大.

Eyewitness Memory
69
Eyewitness memory refers to the recollection of events by someone who has directly witnessed them, often serving as critical evidence in legal settings. This type of memory is commonly used in criminal cases where a witness describes details like a suspect's appearance, clothing, or behavior during a crime. However, despite its perceived reliability, eyewitness memory is prone to significant errors.
One such error is memory distortion, which occurs because human memory does not function...

Accuracy and Errors in Hypothesis Testing
163
Hypothesis testing is a fundamental statistical tool that begins with the assumption that the null hypothesis H0 is true. During this process, two types of errors can occur: Type I and Type II. A Type I error refers to the incorrect rejection of a true null hypothesis, while a Type II error involves the failure to reject a false null hypothesis.
In hypothesis testing, the probability of making a Type I error, denoted as α, is commonly set at 0.05. This significance level indicates a 5%...

Cause and Effect

While variables are sometimes correlated because one does cause the other, it could also be that some other factor, a confounding variable, is actually causing the systematic movement in our variables of interest. For instance, as sales in ice cream increase, so does the overall rate of crime. Is it possible that indulging in your favorite flavor of ice cream could send you on a crime spree? Or, after committing crime do you think you might decide to treat yourself to a cone?
