These findings demonstrate that children can use a ratings-based procedure to discriminate between previously seen and unseen faces, and invites more nuanced and empirical consideration of ratings- based identification evidence as a probabilistic index of guilt that may attenuate problematic social influences on child witnesses’ decision criteria.

It is postulated that certainty plays a qualitatively different role from the four other Biggers criteria in evaluations of eyewitness identification testimony, and hypothesized that participants would ignore reports on other criteria when certainty was high (the certainty-trumps hypothesis), but not when surety was low.
