What is Eyewitness Memory and Leading Questions about?
Loftus and Palmer (1974) studied the impact of question wording on eyewitness memory, finding that leading questions can significantly distort recall of events, particularly in car accidents. Their experiment revealed that different verbs influenced speed estimates and the likelihood of recalling nonexistent details, such as broken glass. While the study had high internal validity and practical implications for legal contexts, it faced criticisms for low ecological validity and sample bias.
