Although certain pockets within the broad field of academic psychology have come to appreciate that eyewitness memory is more reliable than was once believed, the prevailing view, by far, is that eyewitness memory is unreliable—a blanket assessment that increasingly pervades the legal system. On the surface, this verdict seems unavoidable: Research convincingly shows that memory is malleable, and eyewitness misidentifications are known to have played a role in most of the DNA exonerations of the innocent. However, we argue here that, like DNA evidence and other kinds of scientifically validated forensic evidence, eyewitness memory is reliable if it is not contaminated and if proper testing procedures are used. This conclusion applies to eyewitness memory broadly conceived, whether the test involves recognition (from a police lineup) or recall (during a police interview). From this perspective, eyewitness memory has been wrongfully convicted of mistakes that are better construed as having been committed by other actors in the legal system, not by the eyewitnesses themselves. Eyewitnesses typically provide reliable evidence on an initial, uncontaminated memory test, and this is true even for most of the wrongful convictions that were later reversed by DNA evidence.

Taylor Series, sympy and Documentation In this exercise, you are supposed to develop a Python function that approximates sin(x) when x is near zero. To do this, write a program that utilizes sympy to develop a Taylor series for sin(x) around x = 0, keeping only 5 terms from the resulting expression. Then, use sympy to turn the expression into a function. Let the program also plot sin(x) and the developed function together for x in [-p, p]. Filename: symbolic_Taylor.py. Remarks Part of your task here, is to find and understand the required documentation. Most likely, this means that you have to seek more information than found in our book. You might have to read about the Taylor series (perhaps use Wikipedia or Google), and you probably have to look into more details about how Taylor series are handled with sympy. To your comfort, this is a very typical situation for engineers and scientists. They need to solve a problem, but do not (yet!) have the required knowledge for all parts of the problem. Being able to find and understand the required information is then very important.

1. How does James Moor’s “just-consequentialist” theory incorporate aspects of utilitarian and deontological theories into one comprehensive ethical framework? Describe the strategies used in the two different stages of Moor’s theory: the deliberation and the selection stage. Identify a contemporary moral issue affecting cybertechnology, and apply Moor’s just-consequentialist theory to it. 2. Recall the four types of “discussion stoppers” that we examined in this chapter. Is that collection of “stoppers” complete? Can you think of any additional discussion stoppers that might also block or shut down moral discourse? Why is it so easy to fall victim to one or more of those stoppers when discussing moral issues in general, as well as moral issues involving the use of cybertechnology in particular? “
