Self-study
Occasionally an admin will send a message through a chat screen - informing me of a webinar/presentation etc. Once I close the screen I can't find how to re-access it. Is there a button somewhere that I am missing?

Ok, thanks. I just quickly closed it and didn't see when the presentation about personal statements was happening. Wasn't sure if I was missing some chat window button. Are all presentations/webinars uploaded to the discussion forum after?

This tripped me up too. The remaining answer choices didn't seem appealing, but I was looking for an answer choice that somehow connected isolated witnesses to increased accuracy of identification. I never even considered JY's point about how high confidence in the wrong conviction might be bad. I feel this would need the assumption that police are affected by the witnesses level of confidence (which as I type this out I realize is something one could probably reasonably assume...). Also, JY's scenario only kicks in when another witness incorrectly identifies a suspect, and therefore encourages the witness in question to more confidently identify the same incorrect suspect as well (unless the first witness was like "this other witness seems dumb, now I'm not so sure of my initial choice..." and their confidence weakens).
If the accuracy of their statement wouldn't change, it's still hard to see why the witness' confidence matters - as Allan stated above.
Anyone else have thoughts?

This is definitely a dated response, but answer choices to these types of questions are typically introduced as "which of the following, if true,..." So we are meant to assume the truth of the answer choices, and select which one best resolves a problem or supports a conclusion that the passage described.
Ok, thanks for the quick reply Dillon
