Even before they could view the lineup, participants had been randomly distributed to one of the conditions. In one of the conditions, the participants had been given unbiased instructions and were said that the criminal could be or could be not be in the lineup, whereas, in the second condition, the participants had been convinced that the criminal is there in the lineup. It was observed that, when participants had been given biased instructions, chose someone as the criminal from the lineup in 75% of the cases. Also, when neutral instruction were given, this percentage only came down to 50% if the times, whereas, it was observed that the children did not make this error.
