You will be asked to read a variety of short stories and rate the believability of a few statements about each story. The questionaire is similar to a reading comprehension test. With some of the stories, you may feel there is only one correct answer. Other stories may involve many different points of view. Your answers will help us categorize the stories so that later we can state with statistical confidence that a particular story can be interpreted as an instance of a particular kind of situation. You may find errors in spelling or grammar. Please report them, yet try to stay focused on the purpose of the survey to voice your opinion about the concerns of others.

Marita Kenrick & David Mallard

The aim of the study is to improve our understanding of how reliable eyewitness memory is, and about the factors that might make eyewitnesses more or less likely to be accurate in their memory for a crime. The experiment is divided into two parts, with the second half taking place after a 1-week interval. In part one participants view a slide sequence depicting a staged crime. Part two takes place one week later; in this part of the experiment participants are asked to make decisions concerning the staged crime viewed.
