Temporal Dynamics of Eyewitness Memory
Eyewitness testimony is central to criminal investigations, yet facial identification accuracy varies as a function of retention interval. This study examined eyewitness identification performance across delays ranging from 1 min to 90 days in two experiments. Participants viewed a target face and later completed lineup identification tasks following varying intervals. Results revealed a non‐monotonic, three‐phase forgetting trajectory: a rapid d…

As Higher Education (HE) institutions expand their digital resources, students may be struggling to engage effectively with these tools. Academic help-seeking (AHS) is a useful framework for exploring help-seeking behaviour and could be applied to HE contexts, yet its application has been reported as inconsistent. Given the possible utility of this concept to support the growth in technology, a review of how academic help-seeking theory is applie…
Understanding students’ perceptions of fairness in group work assessment
Supporting fairness in the assessment of group work remains an ongoing challenge for instructors, particularly that students feel their individual contributions need to be evaluated equitably. This study draws on social psychology and critical theories to examine the conditions that shape students’ perceptions of fairness and associated tensions in group work assessments across three large UK universities. The results highlight that the majority …
Students’ perceptions of fairness in groupwork assessment
Groupwork is a crucial aspect of work contexts and a key twenty first century skill. Assessment of groupwork provides a persistent challenge for educators in university contexts with students reporting experiences of unfairness from their peers during groupwork. This study developed a novel Peer Assessment Fairness Instrument to explore factors driving students’ perceptions of fairness during groupwork processes. The results showed that students …
Calling it out? A Q Methodological Study of Sexual Harassment Labelling
The public condemnation of high-profile men accused of gendered violence in 2017 resulted in an upsurge of women labelling past experiences as sexual harassment. This study used Q methodology to explore understandings of sexual harassment in the UK. Forty participants sorted 62 statements into quasi-normal grids which were factor analyzed (by person). Eight factors were identified which were titled: Sex Not Sexism, Sexualized Discriminations, Vic…
Proven and not proven
The current Scottish verdict system includes three verdicts: ‘guilty’, ‘not guilty’ and ‘not proven’. The Scottish Government are currently reviewing the utility of the not proven verdict. Proponents of the not proven verdict suggest that it directs jurors to their true role of determining whether the prosecution's case has, or has not, been ‘proven’. Reformists suggest a move to a system similar to England and Wales, with only guilty and not gui…
To see or not to see? Comparing the effectiveness of examinations and end of module assessments in online distance learning
Research comparing continuous assessment (e.g. coursework) with examinations generally reveals a student preference for the former. The perceived increased use of continuous assessment periodically captures media attention, with claims of greater numbers of higher degree classifications being awarded. This paper takes a case-study approach to investigate the extent to which different types of assessment allow students to effectively demonstrate a…
Making faces with computers
Knowledge concerning the cognition involved in perceiving and remembering faces has informed the design of at least two generations of facial compositing technology. These systems allow a witness to work with a computer (and a police operator) in order to construct an image of a perpetrator. Research conducted with systems currently in use has suggested that basing the construction process on the witness recalling and verbally describing the face…
