One significant problem with eyewitness testimony is that

A) short-term memory fades almost completely during the interval between the event and the trial.
B) most juries do not trust eyewitness testimony as much as they should.
C) people's memory sometimes fills in information that has been suggested to them, even though it did not happen.
D) the depth-of-processing principle is in conflict with the encoding specificity principle.

Eyewitness Testimony

Evidence provided in court by someone who witnessed a crime or significant event, which can heavily influence jury decisions despite potential issues with reliability.

Short-Term Memory

Short-term memory is a cognitive system that temporarily holds a limited amount of information in an accessible state for cognitive tasks.

Encoding Specificity

The principle that recall is more effective when the context at the time of encoding matches the context at the time of retrieval.
