过去十年的研究结果已经产生了关于如何最大限度地减少警察列队和照片传播中错误识别的可能性的指导方针。有人认为，实验社会心理学的共同理解的因素污染的研究实验，如需求特征，实验者的偏见，缺乏控制组，一直是主要的框架，导致如何改善警察进行排队的假设。一个方法健全的社会心理学实验和一个适当进行的阵容之间的类比指导目击者识别研究隐含的，在这篇文章中的类比扩展和明确。队列研究的例子来自队列作为实验类比，如模拟证人控制组和空白队列控制，进行了描述。最后，有人认为，研究结果是仿照阵容作为实验类比是自然的系统变量，可能是特别免疫的一些批评，已经发起反对专家证词目击者的事项。
Research findings over the last decade have given rise to guidelines about how to minimize the likelihood of false identifications in police lineups and photo spreads. It is argued here that experimental social psychology's common understanding of factors that contaminate research experiments, such as demand characteristics, experimenter bias, and lack of control groups, has been the principal framework leading to hypotheses about how to improve police-conducted lineups. The analogy between a methodologically sound social psychology experiment and a properly conducted lineup has guided eyewitness identification research implicitly; in this article the analogy is expanded and made explicit. Lineup research examples deriving from the lineup-as-experiment analogy, such as the mock-witness control group and the blank-lineup control, are described. Finally, it is argued that research findings that are modeled on the lineup-as-experiment analogy are natural system variables that might be especially immune to some of the criticisms that have been launched against expert testimony on eyewitness matters.
