Kathy Pezdek (Behavioral and Organizational Sciences) published several articles: “Cross-Race (but not Same-Race) Face Identification is Impaired by Presenting Faces in a Group Rather than Individually,” with O’Brien and C. Wasson, in Law & Human Behavior; “Physiological, Psychological and Behavioral Consequences of Activating Autobiographical Memories,” with R. Salim, in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology; and “Forced Confabulation Affects Memory Sensitivity as well as Response Bias,” with V. Gombos and K. Haymond, in Memory & Cognition. (CGU graduate students included on these publications are Matt O’Brien, Corey Wasson, Roxy Salim, Victor Gombos, and Kelly Haymond.) Book chapters recently published are: “Motivated Forgetting and Misremembering: Perspectives from Betrayal Trauma Theory” in Nebraska Symposium for Motivation: Motivated remembering and misremembering: A reappraisal of the False/Recovered Memory Debate, and “Fallible eyewitness memory and identification” in Conviction of the Innocent: Lessons from Psychological Research, B. Cutler, editor. Pezdek also had several conference presentations: “Why is cross-race face identification even worse for faces presented in a group rather than individually?” at the International Congress on Memory in York, England, and “How are plea bargaining decisions by prosecution and defense attorneys affected by eyewitness factors?” at the American Society of Criminology in Washington, DC.
