Abstract

This study examined the relationship between different types of line-ups (e.g. Simultaneous, Sequential) and the other-race effect. This was a replication to test if the other-race group falsely identified the perpetrator more often when given a simultaneous line-up compared to sequential line-up. The hypothesis was not supported.
