Understanding Children's Use of Secrecy in the Context of Eyewitness Reports

To investigate socioemotional influences on children's eyewitness accuracy, we examined children's reports for activities they were motivated to conceal. Forty-eight 3–6-year-old children participated in a standardized play session with their mothers. Half of the children were told by an experimenter not to play with certain toys, but did so at the urging of their mothers, who told their children to keep the play activities secret. The remaining children were not restricted from playing with the toys, nor told by their mothers to keep the play activities secret. Later, all children were interviewed about the activities with free narrative and detailed questions. Half were given an interview that consisted of highly suggestive questions; half were given an interview consisting of specific, less suggestive questions. Results indicated that older children who were instructed to keep events secret withheld more information than did older children not told to keep events secret. Younger children's reports were not significantly affected by the secret manipulation. There were no significant effects associated with interview type. We discuss implications for understanding the development of children's knowledge and use of secrecy, and applications of the research to issues that arise when child witnesses give reports in legal contexts.     

Expert Testimony Pertaining to Battered Woman Syndrome: Its Impact on Jurors' Decisions

Participants (N = 200) were presented with a criminal homicide trial involving a battered woman who had killed her abuser. Within the trial, both the response history (passive, active) and presence of expert testimony pertaining to battered woman syndrome (present, absent) were systematically varied. As well, half of the participants in each of these conditions were provided with a nullification instruction informing them that they were free to disregard the law and acquit should a strict application of the law result in an unjust verdict. Results indicated that, compared to the passive response condition, the mock jurors were no less receptive to the expert testimony in the active response condition. The impact of the testimony on participants' verdicts, however, was moderated by the nullification instruction. That is, although the presence of the testimony did result in greater verdict leniency, this only occurred when the mock jurors had been released from a strict application of the law. The implications of these findings are discussed.

从中西方法律文化比较的视角考察法治在中国的实现

通过对中西法律文化的分析比较可以看出,旧中国无法实现真正意义上的法治。在新中国社会主义制度创新的过程中,法治建设必不可少。但是由于缺乏民主的基础和法治的土壤,中国只能走政府推进型道路。     

对监听措施的法律建构

监听措施是世界各国为应付犯罪形势的变化而发展起来的一种高技术化、高隐密性的强制侦查措施,其出现对于侦查机关打击和惩罚犯罪发挥了极其重要的作用。作为一种重要的技术侦查手段,我国刑事诉讼法也应对其进行必要的规制,以确保在惩治犯罪的同时兼顾保护公民的基本权利。     

对监狱工作法制化的一般性理解

监狱工作法制化,建立健全法律制度,只是基础性工作,落脚点是必须要认真去遵守.这种遵守不但是针对监狱工作本行业的法律制度,而且是针对整个法律体系.法制化应包括法律制度的形成,法律意识的培养,法律程序和法律文化的建设.监狱工作法制化的终极目标应是监狱工作法治化.
