reflector variable

“Reflector variables are the behaviors of eyewitnesses during the identification procedure that covary with, and hence reflect, whether the suspect in an identification procedure is innocent or guilty.” (Wells, 2020, p. 1318), such as the eyewitnesses’ decision times, vocalized decision processes, confidence statements, etc.
