Eyewitness psychology

A set of suspects shown to a witness to identify

In eyewitness-identification research, a lineup is a set of people or photographs (one possible culprit among known-innocent fillers) presented to a witness who must say whether the offender is present and, if so, which one. Lindsay and Wells's 1985 Improving eyewitness identifications from lineups: Simultaneous versus sequential lineup presentation showed that presenting members one at a time rather than all at once changes the rate of mistaken identifications, making the lineup itself an experimental manipulation with measurable error. The referent is an identification procedure and its accuracy, tracked by correct- and false-identification rates, unrelated to a surf break or a batting order.[1]
