Research on eyewitness identification often involves exposing participants to a simulated crime and later testing memory using a lineup. We conducted a systematic review showing that pre-event instructions, instructions given before event exposure, are rarely reported and those that are reported vary in the extent to which they warn participants…

Harvey, Alistair J.; Sekulla, Alistair – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2021
We examined the effects of acute alcohol on eyewitness memory for a simulated armed robbery under laboratory conditions. Alcohol and placebo participants viewed a slide series showing a target male taking a laptop from a helpdesk assistant, either on loan or at gunpoint. Following a brief retention period, participants responded to…

Kucina, Talira; Sauer, James D.; Holt, Glenys A.; Brewer, Neil; Palmer, Matthew A. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
Presenting a blank line-up--containing only fillers--to witnesses prior to showing a real line-up might be useful for screening out those who pick from the blank line-up as unreliable witnesses. We show that the effectiveness of this procedure varies depending on instructions given to witnesses. Participants (N = 462) viewed a simulated crime and…

Mangiulli, Ivan; Otgaar, Henry; Curci, Antonietta; Jelicic, Marko – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
Research suggests that both internal (i.e., lying) and external (i.e., misinformation) factors can affect memory for a crime. We aimed to explore the effects of post-event misinformation on crime-related amnesia claims. We showed participants a mock crime and asked them to either simulate amnesia (simulators) or confess to it (confessors). Next,…

Evans, Jacqueline R.; Schreiber Compo, Nadja; Carol, Rolando N.; Nichols-Lopez, Kristin; Holness, Howard; Furton, Kenneth G. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2019
Intoxicated witnesses are common, making it important to understand alcohol's impact on witness accuracy and suggestibility. Participants assigned to an immediate retrieval condition encoded and recalled in one of the three intoxication conditions: sober control, placebo, or intoxicated. Participants in the delayed retrieval condition were…

A high number of cyber breaches in organizations occur as a result of email phishing attempts. Research has shown that cyber education has a positive impact in user awareness of attack methods resulting in the reduction of compromises from email phishing attempts. However, in some instances, cyber education does not have a positive impact on the…

Romeo, Tameka; Otgaar, Henry; Smeets, Tom; Landström, Sara; Jelicic, Marko – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2019
The present study examined whether mock offenders, who were instructed to falsely deny crime details or to simulate amnesia, would consequently experience impaired memory. Ninety-three university students were first asked to commit a mock crime and were then assigned to three different conditions (i.e., false denial, simulated amnesia, and truth…

Mitchell, Nathan K.; Moore, Quincy C.; Monroe, Billy W. – Journal of Political Science Education, 2022
Over the course of 3 years, the Political Science and Biology Programs at a regional HBCU have built a curricular learning community centered on a mock trial competition, where a microbiology course was paired with an introductory legal studies course. Over the course of a semester, students enrolled in both courses studied a real appellate case…

Maras, Katie; Dando, Coral; Stephenson, Heather; Lambrechts, Anna; Anns, Sophie; Gaigg, Sebastian – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Autistic people experience social communication difficulties alongside specific memory difficulties than impact their ability to recall episodic events. Police interviewing techniques do not take account of these differences, and so are often ineffective. Here we introduce a novel Witness-Aimed First Account interview technique, designed to better…

Chui, Wing Hong; Khiatani, Paul Vinod; She, Minnie Heep Ching; Wong, Chak Chong – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2020
This article assesses how an interactive simulation game, a modified version of Simulated Society (hereinafter 'SIMSOC-modified'), was used for teaching a theoretical criminology course in a Hong Kong university. Its use was intended to enable students to experience inequalities, in terms of wealth and power. The primary focus was to observe how…

Ament, Caitlin Marie; Graham, Theodore J. – Science Teacher, 2017
This article presents a unit of study in which students examine skeletons and draw conclusions from the evidence they find in a simulated mass grave. The activity involves the foundation of forensic anthropology--interpreting the structure of skeletal remains to determine sex, age, height, and possible cause of death. Working through a series of…

Buelens, Bart; van den Brakel, Jan A. – Sociological Methods & Research, 2015
Mixed-mode surveys are known to be susceptible to mode-dependent selection and measurement effects, collectively referred to as mode effects. The use of different data collection modes within the same survey may reduce selectivity of the overall response but is characterized by measurement errors differing across modes. Inference in sample surveys…

Recent scholarship has highlighted the importance of increasing the intellectual viability of lower-level foreign language (FL) study while facilitating connections between academic practice, learners' lives, and global communities. This article reports on a content-based role-immersion simulation (RIS) designed to incite a critical orientation…

Drake, Stacy A. – ProQuest LLC, 2014
Forensic nursing is an emerging nursing specialty recognized by the American Nursing Association. However, nurses often do not have the basic knowledge or practical competence to provide the appropriate level of forensic care. The purpose of this study was to determine if differences in knowledge or practical competence existed between students…

Block, Stephanie D.; Foster, E. Michael; Pierce, Matthew W.; Berkoff, Molly C.; Runyan, Desmond K. – Applied Developmental Science, 2013
In suspected child sexual abuse some professionals recommend multiple child interviews to increase the likelihood of disclosure or more details to improve decision-making and increase convictions. We modeled the yield of a policy of routinely conducting multiple child interviews and increased convictions. Our decision tree reflected the path of a…
