Research suggests there is a relationship between witness confidence and accuracy, such that confident witnesses tend to be accurate, and this relationship can persist even across delays between witnessed events and identification procedures. Emerging research suggests that witnesses' metacognitive evaluations made prior to identification procedures are also diagnostic of accuracy. These findings about eyewitness memory are valuable, but it is unclear how these factors are evaluated when assessing witness confidence and accuracy. Two studies using a mock-officer paradigm examined how perceptions of witness confidence and accuracy are affected by variations in confidence both before and after identifications (Experiments 1 and 2), and the delay between the crime and the identification (Experiment 2). Although high confidence at either time increased perceived confidence and accuracy, longer delays between the event and identification procedure lowered ratings of perceived confidence and accuracy.

Home Office 9/5/2025 Report There’s a new way to report sexual violence in NSW AUSTRALIA: Australia is currently facing an epidemic in violence against women, with a huge number of women being attacked by their partners every year (one woman is killed every nine days by a partner). One in five Australian women —2.2 million — have experienced sexual violence1 since the age of 15, a statistic that is undoubtedly severely underreported. But why? According to The Australian Government, reporting systems around sexual violence often made women feel not believed, unheard, and ashamed of what had happened to them. But what happened to you does not define you, and it’s time to take back control and have your say, your way. To make reporting easier, the NSW Police Force has introduced a new system to better-support survivors.
