Download The Elderly Eyewitness in Court Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
The majority of research on eyewitness memory has traditionally studied children and young adults. By contrast, this volume is designed to provide an overview of empirical research on the cognitive, social, and health related factors that impact the accuracy of eyewitness testimony given by the elderly. The book takes a lifespan developmental perspective that incorporates research on witnesses of all ages, but uses the findings to focus on issues unique to the elderly. This includes research on recognition memory with lineup identifications and recall memory that occurs when an elderly witness is asked to describe an event in court. The Elderly Eyewitness also examines jurors’ reactions to the testimony of an elderly witness, and the legal and social policy issues that emerge when the elderly witness participate in legal proceedings. While reviewing what is known about the elderly witness, the book also provides a direction for future research into this new frontier of scientific inquiry. Its audience spans researchers in cognitive and developmental psychology, and professionals working in the growing area of psychology and law.

Previous studies examining factors affecting accuracy of children's eyewitness testimony have consistently found significant age differences in ability to accurately remember and report about experienced events. Some research has also shown that question format has an impact on reports of experienced events, with open-ended questions eliciting mostly accurate, but brief, responses and closed-ended questions producing more detailed accounts of events while increasing likelihood of false reporting. The present study was designed to examine the effects and interaction of both age and question format on accuracy of reports of experienced events. while comparing performance of children at different ages to that of adults. There were no significant age differences in accuracy in reporting and/or identifying target event items, but the youngest age group did report significantly more false events than older children and adults. Participants in the open-ended question format group reported fewer target items than participants in the closed-ended question format group and combined question format group, but reported significantly fewer false events than participants in the closed-ended question format group. Examination of interaction data revealed that question format impacted accuracy only for the youngest participants. The results of the present study suggest that age and question format do affect accuracy of reports of experienced events.

Every year, numerous crimes occur involving child eyewitnesses. In some cases, children are the only eyewitnesses, which makes them especially critical for solving the cases. But how reliable is child eyewitness evidence? This book summarises the research on how well children can describe an event and perpetrator (which is a recall task) and how well they can identify the perpetrator in person or in photographs (which is a recognition task). It shows that although children may be less advanced in these skills than adults, they nonetheless can provide invaluable evidence. Pozzulo interprets the research in light of developmental theories, and notes practical implications for forensic investigations. In particular, the chapters highlight interviewing techniques to facilitate accurate recall and lineup techniques to facilitate accurate recognition. This book is an essential resource for all forensic investigators.
