This article reviews the three previously studied categories of variables that are related to
eyewitness identification accuracy: estimator (characteristics of the witnessing conditions) …

Eyewitness memory is known to be fallible. We describe 3 experiments that aim to establish
baseline performance for recognition of unfamiliar faces. In Experiment 1, viewers were …

In recognition memory for unfamiliar faces, performance for target-present items (hits) does
not correlate with performance for target-absent items (false positives), a result which runs …

It is well‐established that matching images of unfamiliar faces is rather error prone.
However, there is an important mismatch between face matching in laboratory and realistic …

Background Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are characterized by
impairments in social communication and interaction. Although difficulties at processing …

This chapter reviews the nature and findings of eyewitness science with the help of expert
testimony on eyewitness performance. Eyewitness scientists have investigated a number of …

Age-related changes have been documented widely in studies of face recognition and
eyewitness identification. However, it is not clear whether these changes arise from general …

The other-race effect in face identification has been documented widely in memory tasks, but
it persists also in identity-matching tasks, in which memory contributions are minimized …

Automatic facial recognition is becoming increasingly ubiquitous in security contexts such as
passport control. Currently, Automated Border Crossing (ABC) systems in the United …

A large body of work report a leftward bias in face processing. However, it is not clear
whether this leftward bias purely reflects the dominance of the right hemisphere or is …
