My impression so far is that the cues keep you in the game the first time when you don't know what's really going on, but some actions can seem overblown if you already are familiar with the case and are going through the case again the third time.
Sounds like hindsight bias to me...
Wait, I was under the impression that hindsight bias would apply if I were to have said "Yeah, some actions seemed overblown even when I didn't know what was going on." Because I would have gone back and changed my memory of my first impression based on my subsequent impression.
Ergo: First Impression: X Subsequent Impression: Y Memory of First Impression after Subsequent Impression: Y (This SHOULD be X, but it isn't because of hindsight bias.)
But if I say: First impression: X Subsequent impression: Y Memory of First Impression after Subsequent Impression: X
Then I don't think I have hindsight bias. Am I misunderstanding something?
No, it is I who was confused. Anyway, it appears that the acting is overblown, especially to indicate the suspect is lying.
