Key informant interviews were conducted with 66 participants from health, justice, industry, and government sectors across the state. Interviews were semi-structured, and transcripts were examined using thematic analysis. Overall, key informants reported that patron banning provisions helped to keep out customers who cause problems in venues and that ID scanners helped to enforce bans. There was some concern about displacement of banned patrons to other nightlife areas, the discretionary nature of venue bans, the potential for banning notices to be misused, and a general perception that police-imposed bans should be longer than the current 10 days. The majority of interviewees were supportive of patron banning and felt that it could (positively) affect patron behaviours. A number of recommendations were suggested to refine the framing and operation of Queensland’s banning policy. Crime Prevention and Community Safety 28/6/2022 Research article The Impact of Procedure and Filler Similarity on Adolescent Eyewitness Lineup Performance Adolescent eyewitnesses have not been adequately studied. This is problematic given that adolescents are at a heightened risk to be an eyewitness or victim to crime. As a first step in studying adolescent eyewitnesses, the current experiment examined adolescents’ (15- to 18-year-old’s; N = 470) performance on four lineup procedures—simultaneous, sequential, elimination, wildcard—to determine which resulted in the greatest discriminability. Given that police agencies use different methods for selecting fillers in the real world (Police Executive Research Forum 2013), filler similarity was manipulated in order to test the lineups in a more legally realistic manner. Thus, lineups either contained lower or higher similarity fillers. Using d’ as a measure of discriminability, results identified that the wildcard and simultaneous lineups led to the greatest discriminability, while the sequential lineup led to the lowest discriminability. Although the results do not suggest a clear superiority of one lineup procedure over another, what the results do suggest is that the sequential lineup may be the least advantageous to use with adolescents and the wildcard and simultaneous lineups may be the most advantageous.
