Includes bibliographical references. When a crime is committed, law enforcement typically relies on the testimony of an eyewitness. However, eyewitness testimony is often susceptible to contamination. Eyewitnesses are usually required to construct a composite of the perpetrator. Research has suggested that eyewitnesses who construct composites are more likely to misidentify the target in a later recognition task (Comish, 1987; Wells, Charman, & Olson, 2005; Yu & Geiselman, 1993). This hampering effect may occur because composite programs utilise a featural selection strategy, which is in opposition to configural and holistic processing that is used when faces are encoded. 2015-01-10T13:40:11Z 2015-01-10T13:40:11Z 2012 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12007 eng application/pdf Department of Psychology Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
