Table 7.

Estimates of parameters dP, b and dA of the 2-HT eyewitness identification model for the data reported by Malpass and Devine67 and by Lampinen et al. [68, Experiment 1].

Malpass and Devine67 Lampinen et al.68
Pre-lineup instructions Parameter estimates Pre-lineup instructions Parameter estimates
dP b dA dP b dA
One-sided .68 (.11) .01 (.06) .21 (.30) One-sided .30 (.05) .00 (.02) .04 (.03)
Two-sided .81 (.09) Two-sided .26 (.03)

Values in parentheses represent standard errors. Within the model used as a comparison standard, parameter dP was estimated separately for one-sided and two-sided pre-lineup instructions. Parameters b and dA were each set to be equal between the one-sided and the two-sided pre-lineup instruction conditions. dP = probability of detecting the presence of the culprit; b = probability of biased suspect selection; dA = probability of detecting the absence of the culprit.
