Abstract:
This fictional piece draws on the author's experience as a juror and the experience of other colleagues who have served as jurors. Although this story is fairly critical of the jury process, this is not to imply that all jury processes are flawed. However, as a teacher and student of organizational behavior and an OD practitioner, the author is particularly conscious of group dynamics. In the juries that he has participated in and interviewed other colleagues about, it became clear that some jurors' decisions were influenced by pathologies that these jurors brought with them into the courtroom.

Abstract:
Previous research has indicated jurors’ stereotypic beliefs about mental health (MH) can impact their decision-making. However, such studies usually focus on the individual juror and MH case content in isolation and overlook how beliefs affect discussion in a complex legal case. Therefore, the current project investigated beliefs about MH within the context of a virtual trial with online group juries, to gain further insight into how individual beliefs integrate into group conversations around MH within the deliberation room. We did not identify any direct relationship between beliefs and verdict decisions (since most jurors agreed on a not guilty verdict), jurors’ perceived persuasiveness varied significantly within groups. Additionally, thematic analysis of jury discussions identified how jurors showed knowledge of MH and in discussion, they rejected myths surrounding its link to violence and crime. Instead, jurors showed a focus on how MH increases vulnerability to experiencing miscarriages of justice.

Abstract:
Literature on trust in legal authorities and institutions demonstrates that trust affects individual behavior, yet there is little research on whether attitudes toward legal authorities such as the police or courts influence juror behavior as a third party assessing evidence and determining legal outcomes for others. Additionally, the literature on juror decision making confirms that juror race is an important predictor of juror decisions, but explanations for differences among racial groups are not clear. Since minority groups hold less favorable attitudes toward legal authorities generally, legitimacy theory may help explain racial differences in decision making among jurors. Using data from nearly 2,000 jurors in felony trials, this research utilizes multilevel modeling techniques to find that jurors' trust in legal authorities is related to juror outcomes, though the effect of juror trust and confidence in the police is opposite that of juror trust and confidence in the courts. Additionally, juror race conditions the effect of trust in police and courts. Trust is a stronger predictor of both perceptions of evidence and voting for black jurors than it is for white jurors.

Abstract:
An experiment was designed to assess the influence of viewing a tape intended to educate mock jurors to jury duty and the jury process and sex of juror on juror verdicts and sentencing in a rape case scenario. The subjects were 35 male and 51 female college undergraduates of a traditional college age. The educational tape significantly influenced jurors' verdict and sentencing. Jurors exposed to the tape assigned a guilty verdict significantly less often than those in the control group. Of those jurors who assigned a verdict of guilty after exposure to the tape, they also imposed a significantly longer sentence than did the control subjects who assigned a verdict of guilty. Female jurors also assigned the guilty verdict significantly more often than did the male jurors. The implications and limitations of these findings as well as suggestions for further research were discussed.

Abstract:
Criminal procedural form is understood by scientists as the conditions, sequence of procedural actions and procedural decisions, rules of investigation, procedural activities of the subjects of investigation, rituals of criminal proceedings. It creates a strict and detailed legal regime for criminal proceedings. In this regard, the legal position of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, set out in its judgment of 07 July 2020 No. 33-P, is of interest. The Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation has proposed new constructions (forms) of juror's communication with the court: For the court of appeal it is envisaged to invite a juror to the court session to receive from him/her information on alleged violations of the criminal procedure law during the discussion and pronouncement of the verdict. The Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation emphasised that such an invitation is only possible without giving the summoned person the procedural status of a witness. An analysis of a number of appellate determinations on this group of issues showed the emergence of new forms: 1. Hearing the explanations of the senior jurors. 2. Receiving written explanations from the senior jurors. 3. Conducting the verification by the Court of Appeal by questioning the alternate jurors. 4. Obtaining an opinion on the results of the performance review. 5. Verification of information from the explanations of the jurors received by the lawyer, inviting the jurors and providing them with information. It should be also noted that the configuration envisaged by the said decree "does not fit" into the criminal procedure form in several other aspects. As mentioned above, a juror is not granted the procedural status of a witness. However, the issue of reluctance of a juror to appear in court to give any explanations and the impossibility to bring him/her is still open. The question arises as to how long the juror's status remains after the verdict is announced and when this civic duty should be considered fulfilled. However, based on the understanding of the criminal procedure form as the totality of such inherent elements as its objectives, principles and functions, it may be stated that a jury does not fulfil the function of justice any longer. Consequently, the impossibility to attribute to them the function of witnesses is not that clear-cut. The procedure of obtaining and the final status of information obtained from jurors is also questionable. The court practice referred to such information as explanations, possible explanations and questioning. Thus, Decision No. 33-P has not only failed to resolve the problem of establishing the circumstances related to violation of the criminal procedure law in the court of appeal through jury trial but has also raised questions as to the criminal procedure form of such involvement.

Abstract:
Fully participatory jury deliberations figure prominently in the idealized view of the American jury system, where balanced participation among diverse jurors leads to more accurate fact‐finding and instills public confidence in the legal system. However, research more than 50 years ago indicated that jury‐room interactions are shaped by social status, with upper‐class men participating more than their lower‐class and female counterparts. The effects of social status on juror participation have been examined only sporadically since then, and rarely with actual jurors. We utilize data from 2,189 criminal jurors serving on 302 juries in four jurisdictions to consider whether—and in what conditions—participation in jury deliberations differs across social groups. Our results indicate the continuing importance of social status in structuring jury‐room interactions, but also reveal some surprising patterns with respect to race and gender that depart from earlier research. We also find that contextual factors including location, case characteristics, and faction size shape the relationship between social status and participation. We conclude with a critical discussion of our results and urge other researchers to take into account contextual factors when examining how individual juror characteristics shape what happens inside the jury room.

Abstract:
Mock jurors provided credibility ratings for a victim (12 years old) and defendant when victim gender, defendant gender, and defendant age (15 vs. 40 years old) were manipulated. Verdicts and sentence recommendations also were assessed. Higher guilt ratings were found for a male versus female defendant. Juror gender was examined as a covariate in the analyses. Female jurors rated the victim higher on accuracy, truthfulness, and believability than male jurors. Male jurors rated the defendant higher on reliability, credibility, truthfulness, and believability than female jurors. Male jurors perceived the victim to desire and cause the crime to a greater extent than female jurors. Mock jurors rated the victim as more responsible for the crime with an older versus younger defendant. Female jurors ascribed higher responsibility to the defendant compared to male jurors. The younger versus older defendant was perceived to have desired the event but only when the victim was female versus male.

Abstract:
One of the fundamental problems of the effectiveness of criminal proceedings with jurors’ participation is the problem of the College of jurors’ formation. It is important to note that the unsolved this problem cannot provide the effectiveness of criminal proceedings with participation of jurors. The objective of this study is to establish the essential normative content of the mechanism of jury’s formation. Besides it deals with define the trends of its development and improvement. It must be admitted, that the application of the dialectical method of objective reality’s scientific cognition let to consider the stages of formation of the jury. Moreover, it was done fully, in correlation with other phenomena of social life and in according to its legal registration. This fact is connected with the distinction between the concepts of «preparing the preliminary list of jurors», «formation of the jury», «the preparatory part of the court trial». The analyzing date of the criminal procedure act recusals of jurors’ norms and its implementation in the judicial practice has allowed to conclude that the personal qualities of the speaker play an important role in the process of realization the citizens’ right of the Russian Federation to participate in the administration of justice. It is important to keep in mind that consideration these qualities could help to overcome a discussion about the correlation of rights, obligations and civil juror’s duties. The author used various methods of analysis to express and argue a number of his own positions, which reveal the «internal» technology of the court’s activities and of the parties to criminal proceedings for the resolution such a point as the allotment of jurors. The author worked on the basis of systematization of special literature in such a question as grounds and procedure of motivated and unmotivated branches of the jury’s applications. Moreover, he emphasized a significant contribution in the resolution of this question by the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation.

Abstract:
AbstractWe asked jurors awaiting trial assignment to listen to a recorded synopsis of an authentic criminal trial and to make a choice among 4 verdict possibilities. Each participant juror then deliberated with another juror whose verdict choice differed, as a microcosm of a full jury’s deliberation. Analysis of the transcripts of these deliberations revealed both characteristics general to the sample and characteristics for which variation appeared across participants. Findings were interpreted in terms of a model of juror reasoning as entailing theory-evidence coordination. More frequently than challenging the other’s statements, we found, a juror agreed with and added to or elaborated them. Epistemological stance — whether knowledge was regarded as absolute and certain or subject to interpretation — predicted several characteristics of discourse. Absolutists were less likely to make reference to the verdict criteria in their discourse. Those who did so, as well as those who made frequent reference to the evidence, were more likely to persuade their discourse partners.

Abstract:
The debate surrounding the utility of trial by jury is as relevant as ever. Much criticism of the ability of jurors to carry out their task was brought to the fore following the highly publicised Pryce trial and the comments from Sweeney J indicating a fundamental problem in jurors' understanding of their role. Furthermore, media attention surrounding a steady stream of cases involving juror misconduct has called into question whether jury trial can survive in its current form. This article recognises that although juries are not a normative part of a fair trial, they do have considerable value in enhancing public confidence in the fairness of the criminal process, particularly through the perception of impartiality. If public support is lost, then the value of jury might be lost with it. Whilst the Law Commission is rightly considering how jurors might be more prepared in advance to carry out their role effectively, this article considers the current judicial approach to dealing with the practical issue of juror impropriety once it has occurred. Through looking at a series of trial and appeal cases it can be seen that a framework has developed which seeks to ensure that trials are derailed rarely whilst the impartiality of the jury is safeguarded. It is maintained that in emphasising both actual and apparent impartiality the vital element of public confidence in the existing process can be preserved.

Abstract:
This thesis describes research about potential jurors' beliefs about children as witnesses. Jurors' knowledge of memory, suggestibility and child sexual abuse was collected and analysed. The aim was to identify strengths or weaknesses in jurors' knowledge to further inform discussion on whether experts should provide evidence to jurors about children's memory, suggestibility and behaviour, in cases which involve child witnesses. This research showed that jurors from both Australia and America had correct beliefs about some characteristics of child witnesses, however they also had incorrect beliefs. The main areas where both Australian and American jurors' beliefs were incorrect was in the suggestibility and interrogation category, and the memory and ability to testify category; however both had some incorrect beliefs with respect to reactions to sexual abuse and disclosure about sexual abuse categories. These findings support the proposition that expert evidence would be beneficial in improving jurors' knowledge of child witnesses, particularly in the areas of children's suggestibility and responses to interrogation. Jurors' assessment of children's testimony is fundamental in some criminal cases, and therefore information obtained in this study has implications for any case where a child witness testifies.

Abstract:
This dissertation examines predictors of juror-determined damage awards among 377 juror eligible mock jurors. Citizens reporting for jury duty in a large metropolitan county on five days when the study was conducted were invited to participate. Scenarios were created that varied both case facts and witness emotion during trial testimony. Results indicate that Affect Control Theory can be applied to the situation of juror-determined damage awards and is helpful in scientifically explaining some of the variation of both compensatory and punitive damage awards.

Abstract:
The present study explored two main questions: Can jurors disregard pretrial publicity? And if jurors cannot disregard pretrial publicity, to what extent does it affect juror decision making? Participants (49 male and 71 female) listened to an audiotaped trial and were assigned to one of four conditions: They were either exposed to the critical evidence as PTP (PTP condition), as an admissible videotape (Video condition), as descriptive testimony given by a witness (Discussion condition), or they were not exposed to the critical evidence (Control condition). After hearing the audiotaped trial, participants were then asked to render a verdict in the case (guilty v. not guilty) on three different charges, rate their confidence in their verdicts, rate the probability of the defendant's guilt on each charge, make sentence recommendations, rate their confidence in their sentence recommendations, and report their attitudes about the defendant's character. Verdicts, sentence recommendations, and confidence judgments were not affected by pretrial publicity. However, results suggested that pretrial publicity may have an impact when judging the defendant's personality characteristics.

Abstract:

Research suggests that most Americans harbor weight-related prejudices, which can translate into discrimination against the obese across a variety of contexts. Yet, little is known about how anti-fat bias may influence juror decisions in cases involving an obese trial participant. This study examined the main and interactive effects of plaintiff weight, deliberations, and individual differences on jurors’ decisions in a medical malpractice case. The Culpable Control Model (CCM) was used to ground the research and to help illuminate the attributional processes underlying mock jurors’ decisions.

College student mock jurors were presented with a photograph of either a normal weight or obese plaintiff and assigned to non-deliberating or deliberating conditions. After reading the case summary, non-deliberating jurors rendered case judgments independently and responded to a series of items designed to measure attributional processes in accordance with the CCM. Deliberating jurors also reviewed the case summary independently but then discussed the case in small groups; each group rendered case judgments as a jury. Following deliberations, jury group members were instructed to provide independent, “individual level” responses to the same series of items completed by the non-deliberating jurors. Several individual differences were assessed in the total sample, including belief in a just world (BJW), belief in the protestant work ethic (BPWE), and anti-fat attitudes (AFAs).

Results revealed no main effects of plaintiff weight on case-related judgments or on any of the measures of attributional processes. However, deliberations and several individual difference variables moderated the effects of plaintiff weight on the dependent variables. Contrary to expectations, deliberations appeared to exacerbate rather than attenuate the effects of anti-fat bias on jurors’ decisions. Compared to non-deliberating jurors, deliberating jurors were more likely to find the obese plaintiff responsible for the negative medical outcome and awarded fewer non-economic damages to the obese plaintiff. Numerous individual differences variables moderated the effects of plaintiff weight on the dependent variables, but BJW was the strongest, most consistent moderator. As expected, those with stronger just world beliefs were less likely to find the defendant liable and were overall more punitive toward the obese plaintiff than those with weaker beliefs. Analyses further indicated that jurors’ attributional processes were consistent with those proposed by the CCM, such that their initial reactions to the case and the plaintiff and defendant influenced their interpretation of attributional information and criteria, which in turn influenced their case decisions. Significant findings not directly tied to formally advanced hypotheses also emerged. Overall, deliberating jurors were more lenient toward the defendant than non-deliberating jurors. In addition, analyses revealed several main effects of individual difference variables on case judgments and attributional processes.

This research is limited in terms of verisimilitude and generalizability; yet, it also yields many significant findings that have thus far been undocumented in published studies. Both the contributions and limitations of this study illuminate exciting directions for future research. In particular, more research is needed to clarify how anti-fat bias may affect jurors’ in particular circumstances, how civil jurors’ decisions may be impacted by deliberations and individual differences more generally, and how the CCM can best be used to help understand decision-making in applied contexts.

Full text
Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to examine moral disengagement strategies, such as dehumanization, responsibility displacement, and victim blame, in mock juror decision making in a case involving the gay panic defense. Mock jurors with high levels of moral disengagement were expected to find the defendant guilty of the lesser charge of manslaughter more often than mock jurors with low levels of moral disengagement. Mock jurors read one of two vignettes that outlined a murder case in which the defendant claimed he was provoked either by an unwanted homosexual advanced from the victim, or an attempted robbery and assault by the victim. They were then asked choose between the charges of manslaughter and murder for the defendant. It was hypothesized that the defendant using the gay panic defense would receive more findings of manslaughter than the defendant in the robbery and assault vignette. This hypothesis was not supported, as the defendant in the robbery and assault vignette received more verdicts finding him guilty of manslaughter than the defendant in the gay panic vignette. However, 57% of mock jurors still supported the use of the gay panic defense. Moral disengagement did not have a significant effect on mock juror decision making in either vignette. Mock jurors with high levels of victim blame found the defendant guilty of manslaughter more often than those with low levels of victim blame. Limitations of this study and implications for society and the legal system are discussed, and future directions for research are offered.

Abstract:
The International Union of Architects (UIA) designated 2022 as “the Year of Design for Health,” which emphasized the significance of health in architectural practice. As a signature event, UIA organized an international student competition, inviting college students to present innovative designs for a 30-bed rehabilitation center. One hundred seventy-five teams from 40 nations submitted their works, with five winners and seven honorable mentions awarded. This study amis to examine the current state of global Design for Health education, identify the strengths and weaknesses of student designs, and provide guidance for GUPHA and the UIA Public Health Group to develop evidence-based strategies that facilitate education in this field worldwide. Research Methods: Interviews with four jurors were conducted, and the jury’s evaluation notes, and competition report were analyzed. Two researchers employed a 29-ques-tion rating system across 11 categories to assess each entry. Results: Jurors noted that most entries displayed strong architectural design and graphic skills. Contrarily, the researchers observed that only a few teams undertook a literature review and conducted research like surveys, interviews, and observations. Many entries missed articulating a compelling narrative about the users and how their designs could provide a good user experience. Although the competition didn’t explicitly demand sustainability, its integration is vital, especially considering the pressing climate crisis. Furthermore, one juror expressed concern over many teams’ insufficient program analysis and development efforts. These observations from the jurors resonated with the rating system’s findings. Conclusion: This competition provides insights into the current state of architectural education with a health focus. It underscores potential pathways for pedagogical advancement, setting the stage for nurturing the next generation of architects with essential skills and mindsets to enhance human health.

Abstract:
We study a scenario where an adjudication task (e.g., the resolution of a binary dispute) is outsourced to a set of agents who are appointed as jurors. This scenario is particularly relevant in a Web3 environment, where no verification of the adjudication outcome is possible, and the appointed agents are, in principle, indifferent to the final verdict. We consider simple adjudication mechanisms that use (1) majority voting to decide the final verdict and (2) a payment function to reward the agents with the majority vote and possibly punish the ones in the minority. Agents interact with such a mechanism strategically: they exert some effort to understand how to properly judge the dispute and cast a yes/no vote that depends on this understanding and on information they have about the rest of the votes. Eventually, they vote so that their utility (i.e., their payment from the mechanism minus the cost due to their effort) is maximized. Under reasonable assumptions about how an agent's effort is related to her understanding of the dispute, we show that appropriate payment functions can be used to recover the correct adjudication outcome with high probability. Our findings follow from a detailed analysis of the induced strategic game and make use of both theoretical arguments and simulation experiments.

Abstract:
The article examines the Genesis of the institution of jury trial in the Russian Empire from the moment of its introduction to the end of the Provisional government. It is noted that the emergence of a trial with the participation of jurors was influenced by Western models of the judicial process, and the forms of participation of citizens in the administration of justice that previously existed on the territory of the Russian state were taken into account. The role that the jury system has played with some success in the search for truth, justice, and the implementation of effective and independent justice in the past centuries is particularly highlighted.

Abstract:
The article examines the linguistic particularities of defense in judicial rhetoric that have not considerably changed since Antiquity. As at present the interest in judicial rhetoric has increased, it is necessary to carry out its comprehensive analysis with the consideration of its modern modifications. In the course of history, judicial rhetoric has preserved its main rules to be used in Modern Times by Western culture advocates for defense purposes. Special attention is paid to stylistic devices, phonetic means and linguistic features to discern that are most frequently used by the advocates in their defense speeches. As stylistic devices are the best means of persuasion of the jurors and public in court, they are indispensable in advocates’ defense speeches and are the focus of the given paper. As the advocates’ defense speeches concentrate mainly on persuasion and thus with emotions rather than reason the author focuses on the expressive language means.

Abstract:
Several applications require random sampling to be protected against a biased behavior. When conflicting parties have different interests in its result, the system must guarantee that collusion among any number of entities cannot influence the resulting computation. Such is the case of legal systems, in which jurors and judges must be randomly picked to ensure impartiality in judicial cases. However, when informational systems are used to generate randomness, it should also provide auditability of its mechanisms to promote confidence in its fairness. This article presents a tool of one such mechanism that combines the randomness provided by hash functions with active social engagement. Each stakeholder in a legal proceeding contribute with his/her own share to the drawing, so that fairness is achieved if at least one entity is honest. Any interested party can audit a drawing using only public information, and misconduct of any party can be traced back to the culprit as soon as the result is computed. Our open-source implementation provides security by design, not depending on the secrecy of its component to attain all the required security properties.

Abstract:
The architectural education process is fundamentally dominated by design studio courses. Their organization remains an open challenge for educators due to the complexity of related factors, such as teaching methods, design topics, assignments and assessments. In particular, the assessment of design studio courses is often a complex procedure, due to the involvement of several jury members with different expertise and their subjective interpretations. In this research, an analysis of the grading discrepancy in architectural juries is proposed. The study aims on quantifying the divergence between the final grades and the marks proposed by each juror. The percentage error was considered as a method for research. The procedure was introduced in the vertical architectural design studio at Alanya Hamdullah Emin Pasa University, Department of Architecture, during the summer semester of 2018.

Abstract:
Apesar dos avanços da inclusão financeira no Brasil, grande parte dos microempreendedores de baixa renda ainda não possui acesso ao crédito produtivo. Esse é um desafio enfrentado especialmente por grupos socioeconomicamente mais desfavorecidos, como os microempreendedores afrodescendentes. Esta pesquisa analisa o perfil de acesso ao crédito produtivo pelos microempreendedores individuais (MEIs) e avalia a presença de diferenciação de cor ou raça nesse acesso. Os resultados mostram que os microempreendedores pardos e pretos, na comparação com os brancos, procuram menos as instituições de crédito; demandam e obtém crédito em menor volume; pagam juros maiores; declaram maior incômodo dentro de estabelecimentos bancários; e reportam maiores dificuldades de acesso aos serviços financeiros.

Lewis, Dustin, ed. Database of States’ Statements (August 2011–October 2016) concerning Use of Force in relation to Syria. Harvard Law School Program on International Law and Armed Conflict, May 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.54813/ekmb4241.

Full text
Abstract:
Many see armed conflict in Syria as a flashpoint for international law. The situation raises numerous unsettling questions, not least concerning normative foundations of the contemporary collective-security and human-security systems, including the following: Amid recurring reports of attacks directed against civilian populations and hospitals with seeming impunity, what loss of legitimacy might law suffer? May—and should—states forcibly intervene to prevent (more) chemical-weapons attacks? If the government of Syria is considered unwilling or unable to obviate terrorist threats from spilling over its borders into other countries, may another state forcibly intervene to protect itself (and others), even without Syria’s consent and without an express authorization of the U.N. Security Council? What began in Daraa in 2011 as protests escalated into armed conflict. Today, armed conflict in Syria implicates a multitude of people, organizations, states, and entities. Some are obvious, such as the civilian population, the government, and organized armed groups (including designated terrorist organizations, for example the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, or ISIS). Other implicated actors might be less obvious. They include dozens of third states that have intervened or otherwise acted in relation to armed conflict in Syria; numerous intergovernmental bodies; diverse domestic, foreign, and international courts; and seemingly innumerable NGOs. Over time, different states have adopted wide-ranging and diverse approaches to undertaking measures (or not) concerning armed conflict in Syria, whether in relation to the government, one or more armed opposition groups, or the civilian population. Especially since mid-2014, a growing number of states have undertaken military operations directed against ISIS in Syria. For at least a year-and-a-half, Russia has bolstered military strategies of the Syrian government. At least one state (the United States) has directed an operation against a Syrian military base. And, more broadly, many states provide (other) forms of support or assistance to the government of Syria, to armed opposition groups, or to the civilian population. Against that backdrop, the Harvard Law School Program on International Law and Armed Conflict (HLS PILAC) set out to collect states’ statements made from August 2011 through November 2016 concerning use of force in relation to Syria. A primary aim of the database is to provide a comparatively broad set of reliable resources regarding states’ perspectives, with a focus on legal parameters. A premise underlying the database is that through careful documentation of diverse approaches, we can better understand those perspectives. The intended audience of the database is legal practitioners. The database is composed of statements made on behalf of states and/or by state officials. For the most part, the database focuses on statements regarding legal parameters concerning use of force in relation to Syria. HLS PILAC does not pass judgment on whether each statement is necessarily legally salient for purposes of international law. Nor does HLS PILAC seek to determine whether a particular statement may be understood as an expression of opinio juris or an act of state practice (though it might be).
