The Prison and the Gallows: The Politics of Mass Incarceration in America

The American Psychological Association filed an amicus curiae brief supporting the validity of the field of stereotyping and the general methods used by the expert. Such legal application provides further lessons for psychological research on stereotyping. The American Psychological Association (APA) submitted to the Supreme Court amicus curiae brief. The relevant psychological literature was heavily cited in Judge Gesell's original decision, and the testimony about the psychology of stereotyping was cited at all levels of the appeal and review process, including the Supreme Court's decision and the subsequent remand. Social science evidence has played a significant role in race discrimination cases in the Supreme Court since Brown v. Board of Education, but such evidence had not before been used in sex discrimination cases. The psychological literature is strong in showing how per vasive stereotypes are, in demonstrating the myriad conditions that promote them, and in showing how resistant they can be to new information.

Social science research on trial: Use of sex stereotyping research in Price Waterhouse v. Hopkins..

Act IV, sc. 1 (line 264) ANTONIO But little: I am arm'd and well prepared. Give me your hand, Bassanio: fare you well! Grieve not that I am fallen to this for you; For herein Fortune shows herself more kind Than is her custom: it is still her use To let the wretched man outlive his wealth, To view with hollow eye and wrinkled brow An age of poverty; from which lingering penance Of such misery doth she cut me off. Commend me to your honourable wife: Tell her the process of Antonio's end; Say how I loved you, speak me fair in death; And, when the tale is told, bid her be judge Whether Bassanio had not once a love. Repent but you that you shall lose your friend, And he repents not that he pays your debt; For if the Jew do cut but deep enough, I'll pay it presently with all my heart.

Taking Stock of Innocence Movements, Mountains, and Wrongful Convictions

This article describes citations of social science research evidence in 200 criminal cases decided by the Supreme Court and in the briefs filed by the parties and amici curiae in these cases. It also examines the uses of social science authorities in samples of Supreme Court exclusionary rule and jury decisionmaking cases, and accompanying briefs. The correspondence between the social science references cited in the decisions and the briefs is used as one measure of the brief-writers' contributions to the Court's use of social science materials, and related contributions of the brief-writers are explored, as well. The justices appeared to locate the majority of social science references cited in their opinions without assistance from the briefs, and thus also presumably attempted to evaluate the research evidence on their own. Individuals and organizations with scientific expertise rarely filed amicus briefs in these cases, which may help explain why the Court so frequently was without assistance in locating or examining research evidence. It is suggested that the appellate judiciary's informed use of social science materials would be promoted if more social scientists, and their professional organizations, participated as amici curiae in cases presenting social fact issues within their competence.
