This chapter explores how research and theory in cognitive psychology has been used to examine the mechanisms responsible for PTP's biasing effects on jury decisions. This research can assist the courts in finding effective remedies for PTP bias. This research suggests that jury deliberations can increase (polarize) juror bias and therefore, cannot be counted on to remedy the effect of PTP on jury decision making. This book also reviews research and theory examining whether memory errors (e.g., source misattributions) and biases of individual jurors are likely to be corrected by jury members during deliberations.Laws and legislation series.JuryUnited StatesDecision makingFree press and fair trialUnited StatesJuryUnited StatesPsychological aspectsJuryDecision making.Free press and fair trialJuryPsychological aspects.347.73/752347.73/752Ruva Christine L1869747MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910953823903321How pretrial publicity affects juror decision making and memory4477978UNINA
