Topic: Toolmark Pattern Identification Study

[Cole]

The following is posted on behalf of Bill Matty:
 
I am assisting a NY state high school student with a school project. He is involved in a rather sophisticated program sponsored by Intel where students do a scientific study of their choosing.
 
He is interested in forensic science and has developed a survey to assess a person’s ability to recognize toolmark patterns. The test is to be taken by both professionals in the field (that would be you) and non-professionals. The data evaluation will assess the test subject’s pattern recognition ability in light of their background in the field, or lack thereof.
 
 
I would consider it a personal favor if you would complete the survey/test. It should take well under 30 minutes to complete and you remain anonymous in this.
 
I’m not sure how your government computers will deal with this, but give it a try.
 
Also, feel free to forward this to co-workers, family, or friends.
