Criminal Identity
A number of researchers have explored legal decision making, attempting to predict factors that influence sentencing. For example, Dunning (1986) focused on one major factor, the decision maker's construal of the crime. Dunning's research demonstrated the importance of construals (filling in of information) in sentencing decisions; however, he was unable to identify what predicts these construals. Here we apply affect control theory to predict co…
Does majoring in criminal justice affect perceptions of criminal justice
Research continues to show that the public holds misperceptions about crime and criminal justice. The media influences the public in many of these misperceptions, often shaping beliefs and ideologies. Higher education gives criminal justice majors the opportunity to gain much more accurate knowledge than the general public. Nonetheless, it is the public that heavily influences the development of the criminal justice system. It is important, there…
The Likelihood of Victim Restitution in Mock Cases
Criminal justice studies have examined the significance of factors on punishment likelihoods for offenders. However, these studies typically emphasize imprisonment and probation. With the growing concern for victim's rights, the criminal justice system has included the option of victim restitution. Researchers, however, have not examined the significance of factors for the likelihood of victim restitution. The present study explores differences i…

Heinous Crime or Unfortunate Accident? The Effects of Remorse on Responses to Mock Criminal Confessions
Affect control theory provides a rigorous, testable model of emotion. We use simulations based on this theory to develop predictions about the impact of emotion displays on identity attributions and subsequent sentencing recommendations in the context of criminal confessions. We then test these predictions with an experimental study using vignettes of criminal confessions. Students responded to mock criminal confessions by drivers responsible for…
