Identification

Most research has been done in the area of facial recognition and not in identification matching. Photo identification is used in a variety of situations. A single picture is used for travel with passports or in the case of photo alerts for missing children. Passports in Canada for children under sixteen are limited to a maximum five-year renewal period, differing from an adult passport that can have up to ten years maximum (Government of Canada, n.d.). The five-year maximum renewal time may seem

Eyewitness Identification may be more reliable than we believe, if they are handled and assessed correctly. Eyewitness testimonies are often used by law enforcement officers to identify suspects and play a huge role in getting convictions. If witnesses identify the wrong person, an innocent man could be punished for something they had no involvement in. There are many theories to explain why witnesses may identify the wrong person as the perpetrator of a crime. The different ways we retrieve memories

Identification and recognition are often referred to one another as having the same meaning. For this research study, recognition is memory recall, whereas identification is matching features. This separation is to establish a clear way to separate eyewitness recognition from passport identification matching. Eyewitness recognition relies on memory to recognize an individual. This is different from identifying a child from a picture taken weeks or years prior to passport identification. The angle

through fingerprints was first introduced in the 1980’s (Paul Johnson, Robin Williams, 2006). While at first it was primarily carried out on high-profile cases, most modern crime investigations use some form of genetic identification technique. The technology behind DNA identification has been rapidly growing. Instead of

their communities. Identification communication strategies in organisational communication are necessary in modern organisations and “frequent communication leads individuals to feel that they are active participants in the organisation” (Huff, Sproull, Kiesler, 1989, p. 1372). These strategies include; the common ground technique, identification through aesthesis and the assumed or transcendent “we”. The purpose of this literature review is to examine and explain how identification communication strategies

Eyewitness identifications are among the most persuasive, and sometimes only, juncture in the apprehension of criminals. This typically involves a simultaneous line-up(SIM) where the suspect(target) is placed among known innocents(foils) who resemble the witness’s description of the perpetrator (Wells & Olson, 2003). The selection or lack of selection from the witness is given significant legal weighting. However, 75% of convictions involved exculpation through DNA testing where eyewitness misidentification

Rhetorical Theories of Persuasion: Theory of Identification and Hillary Clinton’s 2016 Campaign Video The theory of identification is one of the rhetorical theories of persuasion. Under the theory of identifications, there are several key assumptions. One assumption is that the speaker has at least one quality that is similar to one of the qualities of the audience. At the least, the speaker must have the ability to make it appear to the audience that they have one similar characteristic. Another

In Chapter thirteen, naming the law of governing identification evidence is introduced. It begins with the evidence needed for criminal convictions. It states that to convict a person of a crime, the government must be able to prove it. The government must prove that the crime the person is charged with did indeed happen. The government must also be able to prove that the defendant was committed or was a party to the crime charged. The evidence can either be direct or circumstantial. Direct evidence

Witness identification evidence is the second most incriminating type of evidence bar a confession (Brandon & Davies, 1973 – as cited by Valentine & Heaton, 1999). However, The Innocence Project reports it is also the leading cause of wrongful convictions in the US, more specifically, 72% of DNA exoneration cases since 1989. The aim of line-ups is to give the witness a fair test of recognition. Additionally, the suspect (who may be innocent) must also be given a fair chance. In the 1976 the Devlin

in terms of time and perceived loss of privacy for people to obtain such identification. In addition, such a requirement would not be significantly out of step with current forms of national identification required for everyday activities, such as banking, or applying for a loan. I anticipate that the most significant opposition to such a measure will stem from the argument that the requirement for such a form of identification would make discriminatory law enforcement more likely, and that undocumented
