Abstract

Although it might be expected that the UK requirement that sequential video parades are seen at least twice by each witness would negate the advantage of a sequential presentation, two studies of the UK system have found that it does not increase the rate of false-positives. This could be because the witness can only ever see one face at a time and is further prevented from making a relative judgment as there can be a considerable interval between successive faces. This suggestion is examined in the present study by manipulating the duration for which each image is displayed.
