An Examination Of A Three-Dimensional Automated Firearms Evidence Comparison System, Natalie G. Carpenter Apr 2004

An Examination Of A Three-Dimensional Automated Firearms Evidence Comparison System, Natalie G. Carpenter

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This thesis is an examination of a firearm identification system that creates a three-dimensional image of a bullet in order to record the depth and length of striations occurring along the bullet's surface.

In the past, control bullets matching ones found at the crime scene have been test fired and then examined by a comparison microscope for …

A Comparison Of Meta-Analytic Approaches To The Analysis Of Reliability Estimates, Denise Corinne Mason

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

In the last few years, several studies have attempted to meta-analyze reliability estimates. The initial study, to outline a methodology for meta-analyzing reliability coefficients, was published by Vacha-Haase in 1998. Vacha-Haase used a very basic meta-analytic model to find a mean effect size (reliability) across studies. There are two main reasons for meta-analyzing reliability coefficients. First, recent research has shown that many studies fail to report the appropriate reliability for the measure and population of the actual study (Vacha-Haase, Ness, Nilsson and Reetz, 1999; Whittington, 1998; Yin and Fan, 2000).
