Kukucka, Jeff; Dror, Itiel E.; Yu, Melissa; Hall, Lisa; Morgan, Ruth M. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
Forensic examiners routinely compare a crime-relevant mark of unknown origin against a single suspect's sample, which may create an expectation that the two will match. We tested how embedding the suspect's sample among known-innocent fillers (i.e., an "evidence lineup") affects expert decision-making. Experienced fingerprint examiners…

Wilson, Cristina G.; Shipley, Thomas F.; Davatzes, Alexandra K. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
Previous research demonstrates that domain experts, like ordinary participant populations, are vulnerable to decision bias. Here, we examine susceptibility to bias amongst expert field scientists. Field scientists operate in less predictable environments than other experts, and feedback on the consequences of their decisions is often unclear or…

Robson, Samuel G.; Searston, Rachel A.; Edmond, Gary; McCarthy, Duncan J.; Tangen, Jason M. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
Perceptual experts have learned to rapidly and accurately perceive the structural regularities that define categories and identities within a domain. They extract important features and their relations more efficiently than novices. We used fingerprint examination to investigate expert-novice differences in feature choice. On each fingerprint…
