在美国和世界各地,一个日益增长的运动涉及促进以顺序方式进行目击者阵容的优势。我们进行了一项大型研究(N = 2,529),其中包括24项顺序与同时队列的比较。一个自由的统计标准显示,只有2个显着的顺序阵容优势和3个显着的同时优势。当犯罪嫌疑人或任何一个无辜嫌疑人的好照片在顺序排列中处于第五位时,这两个顺序优势都发生了;当犯罪嫌疑人或任何一个无辜嫌疑人的质量较差的照片处于第二位时,所有3个同时优势都发生了。调整统计标准以控制多重检验(0.05/24),未显示出显著的序贯优势。此外,尽管发现更保守的整体选择顺序阵容,没有支持的建议,顺序优势是由于保守的标准转变。除非在真实的世界中具有特定特征的阵容占主导地位,否则似乎没有强烈的偏好以顺序或同时的方式进行阵容。
A growing movement in the United States and around the world involves promoting the advantages of conducting an eyewitness lineup in a sequential manner. We conducted a large study (N = 2,529) that included 24 comparisons of sequential versus simultaneous lineups. A liberal statistical criterion revealed only 2 significant sequential lineup advantages and 3 significant simultaneous advantages. Both sequential advantages occurred when the good photograph of the guilty suspect or either innocent suspect was in the fifth position in the sequential lineup; all 3 simultaneous advantages occurred when the poorer quality photograph of the guilty suspect or either innocent suspect was in the second position. Adjusting the statistical criterion to control for the multiple tests (.05/24) revealed no significant sequential advantages. Moreover, despite finding more conservative overall choosing for the sequential lineup, no support was found for the proposal that a sequential advantage was due to that conservative criterion shift. Unless lineups with particular characteristics predominate in the real world, there appears to be no strong preference for conducting lineups in either a sequential or a simultaneous manner.
