Detecting recognition for personally known associates in a gang/network using eye movements; published in CR:PI Great to see this paper out @ailsamillen Early days but may be of interest for #intelligencegathering @crest_research @NCA_UK @ukhomeoffice @BPSDefSec @UoPForensicPsyc
New paper with @lorraine_hope and @AnneHillstrom . Eye tracking shows clear potential for uncovering networks of criminal who are associated or personally known in real life. Detecting recognition of faces, scenes and objects that are less well known is more challenging.

Amazing engagement on this research this week. For me the next key questions are how to build on this evidence base to plug gaps in understanding, begin/continue to evaluate what support really works long term & assess how the landscape of support can be made simpler to navigate
