Description

Methods, Measures, and Theories in Eyewitness Recognition Tasks provides a comprehensive review of the fundamental issues surrounding eyewitness recognition phenomena alongside suggestions for developing a more methodologically rigorous eyewitness science.

Over the past 40 years, the field of eyewitness science has seen substantial advancement in eyewitness identification procedures, yet theoretical and methodological developments have fallen behind. Featuring contributions from prominent international scholars, this book examines methodological and theoretical limitations and explores important topics, including how to increase the accuracy of identifying perpetrators when using CCTV images, how to create more identifiable facial composites, and the differences in accuracy between younger and older eyewitnesses.

Providing in-depth discussion on the limitations of traditional lineups, eyewitness memory fallibility, and the complications that arise when using laboratory simulations, along with suggestions for new methods, this book will be an invaluable resource for researchers in eyewitness recognition, lawyers, players in the criminal justice system, members of innocence commissions, and researchers with interests in cognitive psychology.

Reviews

"This is a domain in which scientific results lead immediately to real-world applications, and so our science has to be comprehensive and sophisticated. That's why we need volumes like this one, weaving together theory, careful discussion of measures, and thoughtful scrutiny of all our research." - Daniel Reisberg, Reed College, U.S.A.

"A ground breaking examination highlighting contemporary methods and emerging topics in eyewitness recognition. Each chapter promotes a unique learning opportunity for understanding the science, theories, and methods contributing to eyewitness identification accuracy." - Garrett Berman, Roger Williams University, U.S.A.

"If you are an eyewitness researcher or someone who uses eyewitness research in your line of work, this book is an invaluable resource and a must read. Nowhere else will you find such a compelling and up-to-date compendium of how to conduct and evaluate eyewitness studies. As a researcher in the eyewitness field for over 20 years, I can strongly attest to the significance of this publication and salute the authors for this tremendous body of work. It is a much needed resource that will no doubt guide the future of scientific discovery in this field." - Jennifer E. Dysart, John Jay College of Criminal Justice, New York, U.S.A.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.
