Why trust adversarial justice
Through the lens of legal professionals
Legal psychologists sometimes provide expert witness testimony about eyewitness memory in court. In their testimony, they regularly rely on scientific findings that decision-makers (i.e., jurors, judges) likely assume are practically relevant. However, it is not yet known which effect sizes are large enough to be deemed practically relevant for the courtroom, also known as the smallest effect size of interest (SESOI). One way to estimate the SESO…
Questionable Research Practices and Open Science in Quantitative Criminology
Technological Advocacy and Crime Reporting in an HBCU Setting
In comparison to white students, the study of Black student attitudes toward crime reporting on college campuses is deficient, especially in historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs). Using approximately 100 completed student questionnaires, statistical results suggest that the majority of students express a willingness to report a campus-related crime to campus police. The highest reported explanation for refusing to report a crime is…
Where Is the Evidence in Evidence-Based Law Reform
Law reform bodies frequently express a commitment to evidence-based law and policy recommendations. They also endorse the importance of the transparency and democratisation of their processes. They do not, however, connect these two goals of evidence-based policy and transparency. This stands in contrast to the ongoing revolution in several fields of research towards open science and synthesis, which envisions transparency and openness as a means…
Improving the Credibility of Empirical Legal Research
Fields closely related to empirical legal research (ELR) are enhancing their methods to improve the credibility of their findings. This includes making data, analysis codes and other materials openly available on digital repositories and preregistering studies. There are numerous benefits to these practices, such as research being easier to find and access through digital research methods. However, ELR appears to be lagging cognate fields. This m…
Replicability in Empirical Legal Research
As part of a broader methodological reform movement, scientists are increasingly interested in improving the replicability of their research. Replicability allows others to perform replications to explore potential errors and statistical issues that might call the original results into question. Little attention, however, has been paid to the state of replicability in the field of empirical legal research (ELR). Quality is especially important in…
Pre-recorded expert evidence in intimate partner violence cases
This article makes a case for pre-recorded, modularized expert evidence as a way to improve access to justice in some intimate partner violence (IPV) cases. Knowledge about the effects and dynamics of IPV regularly plays an important role in criminal trials. This knowledge is often beyond the ken of the factfinder and thus can provide important context for the case facts. It may also assist in disabusing misconceptions surrounding IPV. Despite th…
Introduction to the special issue
We are pleased to introduce this special issue dealing with the complex and interlocking web of evidence issues that arise in intimate partner violence (IPV) cases. Set against the backdrop of a global pandemic, rolling stay-at-home orders and immense economic uncertainty, many signs point to domestic violence being on the rise in Australia and abroad. While we could not have foreseen these circumstances, we hope these articles—which arose from a…
Towards phosphorus sustainability in North America
The diverging dictionaries of science and law
Scientific evidence is easily misunderstood. One of the most insidious instances of misunderstanding arises when scientific experts and those receiving their evidence assign different meanings to the same words. We expect scientific evidence to be difficult to understand. What is unexpected, and often far more difficult to detect, is the incorrect understanding of terms and phrases that appear familiar. In these circumstances, misunderstandings e…
Psychological science’s replicability crisis and what it means for science in the courtroom
In response to what has been termed the "replicability crisis," great changes are currently under way in how science is conducted and disseminated. A question therefore arises over how such change impacts law's treatment of scientific evidence. The present standard for the admissibility of scientific evidence in federal courts in the U.S. asks judges to play the role of gatekeeper, determining if the proffered evidence conforms with several indic…
