When emotions get the better of us: the effect of contextual top-down processing on matching fingerprints

Twenty‐seven participants made a total of 2,484 judgments whether a pair of fingerprints matched or not. A quarter of the trials acted as a control condition. The rest of the trials included top‐down influences aimed at biasing the participants to find a match. These manipulations included emotional...

description Twenty‐seven participants made a total of 2,484 judgments whether a pair of fingerprints matched or not. A quarter of the trials acted as a control condition. The rest of the trials included top‐down influences aimed at biasing the participants to find a match. These manipulations included emotional background stories of crimes and explicitly disturbing photographs from crime scenes, as well as subliminal messages. The data revealed that participants were affected by the top‐down manipulations and as a result were more likely to make match judgments. However, the increased likelihood of making match judgments was limited to ambiguous fingerprints. The top‐down manipulations were not able to contradict clear non‐matching fingerprints. Hence, such contextual information actively biases the ways gaps are filled, but was not sufficient to override clear bottom‐up information. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
