T1 - Justice vs. obedience in jury nullification T2 - 76th Annual Meeting of the Midwestern Psychological Association, Chicago N2 - Mock juries were exposed to an argument for nullifying the law to achieve a just verdict, an argument that the law must be obeyed, to both or neither argument. Both final verdicts and social-influence showed that either argument alone increased the power of pro-conviction factions, but that these effects were weakened when both arguments were heared.

A1 - Kerr, Norbert L. A1 - Park, Ernest S. A1 - Gockel, Christine T1 - Chaos in the courtroom reconsidered: emotional bias and juror nullification JF - Law and Human Behavior N2 - A widespread presumption in the law is that giving jurors nullification instructions would result in “chaos”—jurors guided not by law but by their emotions and personal biases. We propose a model of juror nullification that posits an interaction between the nature of the trial (viz. whether the fairness of the law is at issue), nullification instructions, and emotional biases on juror decision-making. Mock jurors considered a trial online which varied the presence a nullification instructions, whether the trial raised issues of the law's fairness (murder for profit vs. euthanasia), and emotionally biasing information (that affected jurors’ liking for the victim). Only when jurors were in receipt of nullification instructions in a nullification-relevant trial were they sensitive to emotionally biasing information. Emotional biases did not affect evidence processing but did affect emotional reactions and verdicts, providing the strongest support to date for the chaos theory.
