Fully funded ESRC PhD studentship, School of Psychology University of Birmingham
Determining how UK policing should construct identification parades: Using
diagnostic-feature-detection theory to maximise eyewitness identification accuracy
Dr Melissa Colloff<http://www.melissacolloff.com> is delighted to announce a fully
funded collaborative ESRC PhD studentship with The National VIPER
Bureau<http://www.viper.police.uk/>, (Dr
Colloff<https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/staff/profiles/psychology/colloff-melissa.aspx>
as primary supervisor, and Dr Heather Flowe
<https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/staff/profiles/psychology/Heather-D.-Flowe.aspx> as
secondary supervisor).
The project is about lineup member similarity in police identification parades. The
project will involve conducting cognitive/memory experiments on face similarity and
modelling data, along with collecting and analysing real-world ID outcomes from police
forces, and working closely with VIPER in West Yorkshire Police.
The closing date is 6th March.
