**Overview of Evidence Syntheses in Eyewitness Identification** Although there are a number of systematic reviews, meta-analyses and other evidence syntheses found in the literature on accuracy of eyewitness identification, the National Research Council Report (2014) examined several reviews and concluded that they were largely methodologically flawed, but there has been no systematic, methodologically sound synthesis. This overview seeks to remedy this gap. **OBJECTIVE****S** This review aims to: 1. Conduct a sensitive and extensive search for evidence syntheses related to eyewitness identification 2. Assess the quality of these syntheses using a validated instrument, AMSTAR 3. Describe the methodological guidance followed by authors of the included reviews 4. Describe the extent to which this body of research conforms to PRISMA Reporting Standards. 5. Provide an inventory of Estimator and System variables investigated 6. Provide an inventory of the types of eyewitness identification procedures investigated 7. Provide a series of tables showing data from included reviews for estimator and system variables. 8. Analyze included studies across reviews to determine: the degree of overlap; the omission of any relevant studies.
