Little attention has been paid to cross-race eects on lineup fairness. Brigham demonstrated that lineup construction is inยฏuenced by race and that the mock-witness task may be inยฏuenced by racial dierences. Two experiments extend our knowledge of cross-race issues in the measurement of lineup fairne

Various measures have been proposed to test the fairness of lineups (Doob & Kirshenbaum, 1973;Malpass, 1981;Wells, Leippe and Ostrom, 1979). In three experiments, we examined the relationship of identiยฎcation accuracy to measures of lineup bias ( proportion of mock witness choices, defendant bias, f
Much eyewitness research has centred on the development and evaluation of measures of lineup properties. These measures have proved useful to researchers and to expert witnesses who testify on eyewitness testimony. However, the inferential statistical properties of the measures themselves are rarely
