Abstract

The present study were to examine that a sequential lineup procedure yield greater diagnosticity ratios than does the common simultaneous lineup procedure. Participants were 299 university students. The result of the examination showed that the effect of interaction in the lineup formation has an important implication, according to the likelihood of the suspect's presence or not. In detail, in the case of the suspect's presence among the participants in the lineup formation, there are difference between the simultaneous procedure and the sequential one. In other words, this result that identification's accuracy of the sequential procedure was more high the simultaneous one. Meanwhile, the unbiased instructions appear to create no moderating effects between the lineup formation and the identification rates. Instead there appears to have a significant ramification in the interaction between the unbiased instructions and the fact that whether or not the suspect is included. This result demonstrates the possibility of the suspect's absence or presence in the lineup formation. Consequently, the unbiased instructions are essential to the identification procedure for the sake of the innocent protection from being pointed as the suspect. This study has implicit ramifications on the current investigation scene as follows：firstly, the sequential procedure has accuracy in the suspect identification as well as it contributes to reduction in misidentification. Accordingly, when the identification procedure takes place, the sequential procedure should have a priority to be considered prior to the simultaneous one. Secondly, the unbiased instruction of the processor helps to prevent the witness' mistakes in the identification procedure.
