Effect of musical education on accuracy of identification in a voice parade
Voice lineup is a possible form of an identification parade conducted during an investigation. It could occur in cases where the perpetrator’s appearance was not observed by the victim or witness, and only the voice was heard. Some of the factors that could impact the accuracy of voice recognition, such as age of the witness, retention interval and whether the voice was heard live (at crime scene) or through a mobile phone, have already been the subject of some studies.
The aim of the study was to examine the impact of the following factors: music education, retention interval and gender. The experiment was conducted with a total of 129 participants, both musically and non-musically educated. The participants were asked to listen to a short voice recording simulating a true event and then (after the retention interval of 1 week or 2 weeks) to listen to a recorded lineup of 6 female voices. Following that, they were asked to try to identify the perpetrator’s voice. The results revealed no statistically significant difference between musically educated and non-musically educated participants, and similarly, no significant difference was found based on gender or confidence rating. A nearly significant decrease in accuracy was observed among the participants with a longer retention interval. Nevertheless, the maximum level of accuracy was only 55% which implies low reliability of voice recognition evidence. There results must be taken into consideration by authorities if a voice lineup is used, especially to treat voice recognition evidence with caution.
