The results of a Rice-Beyle cluster bloc analysis of votes in the International Court of Justice reveal several two- and three-judge blocs, but these blocs do not conform closely to the blocs which would be expected on the basis of the political alignments or common cultural patterns of the judges' countries. These results are reinforced by the analysis of predetermined blocs based upon the political alignments and common legal systems of the judges' countries, although the Soviet and Polish judges do show distinctive voting patterns from the rest of the Court. A conceptual framework of the judicial decision making process is then introduced to help explain the results, leading to the conclusions that while social background and personal and policy attitudes do not seem to be major factors in explaining judicial behavior of the judges, the factor of judicial role perceptions, stemming primarily from professional traming and associations, may be of great significance
