The answer is Phil who makes his identification in less than 10 seconds. Through 4 researches, the authors revealed that a time border of approximately 10 to 12 s best distinguished accurate from inaccurate positive proof of identity. Witnesses constructing their identification faster than 10 to 12 s were closely 90% precise; those taking lengthier were approximately 50% accurate.
