摘要:
One hundred and twenty police recruits (probationer constables) being trained at the Metropolitan Police Training Centre in Hendon, England, participated in 1 of 2 occupational simulations, either nonstressful. Twenty of the recruits in each condition were active participants in the event, whereas the other 40 were observers. Half of the recruits were interviewed after a delay of 1 week and again after 12 weeks. The others were interviewed only once after a period of 12 weeks. Stress decreased the amount recalled but improved both accuracy and resistance to decay over time. Participants recalled more details than observers. Delay of recall and the number of recall trials also affected performance. The results are discussed in terms of the advantages of a research context that permits much of the control of the laboratory while retaining many of the characteristics of actual forensic contexts.
