This study investigated the effects of face angle congruency across stages of a misinformation paradigm on lineup discrimination accuracy.
In a between-subjects design, participants viewed a mock crime with the perpetrator's face from the front or profile angle. They then read a news report featuring an innocent suspect's image from the same or different angle as the perpetrator had been shown. A subsequent lineup manipulated perpetrator presence and viewing angle of the lineup members, who were all shown either from the front or in profile.
No significant difference emerged in identification errors based on angle congruency between stages. However, accuracy was higher when faces were shown from the front angle, both during the initial event and the lineup, compared to the profile angle.
The results of this research underscore the importance of considering viewing angles in the construction of lineups.
本研究调查了在错误信息范式的各个阶段中,面部角度一致性对列队辨认准确性的影响。
在一项被试间设计中,参与者观看了一段模拟犯罪视频,视频中犯罪者的面部为正面或侧面角度。然后,他们阅读了一篇新闻报道,报道中出现了一名无辜嫌疑人的图像,该图像与犯罪者所展示的角度相同或不同。随后的列队辨认环节对犯罪者是否在场以及列队成员的观看角度进行了操控,所有列队成员均以正面或侧面展示。
基于各阶段之间角度一致性的识别错误没有显著差异。然而,与侧面角度相比,在初始事件和列队辨认过程中,当面部以正面角度展示时,准确性更高。
本研究结果强调了在列队辨认构建过程中考虑观看角度的重要性。
