Theoretical vs. empirical discriminability: The application of ROC methods to eyewitness identification

JT Wixted, L Mickes - Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2018 - Springer
Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was introduced to the field of eyewitness
identification 5 years ago. Since that time, it has been both influential and controversial, and …

Experimental validation of a multinomial processing tree model for analyzing eyewitness identification decisions

Evaluating the impact of first-yes-counts instructions on eyewitness performance using the two-high threshold eyewitness identification model

K Winter, NM Menne, R Bell, A Buchner - Scientific Reports, 2023 - nature.com
In eyewitness research, multiple identification decisions in sequential lineups are typically
