Research on juror and jury decision-making has proliferated over the past 45 years since the publication of the classic monograph, The American jury (Kalven & Zeisel, 1966). Although the scholarship on juries is clearly characterized by quantity, some have expressed concerns over the variability of the quality of research generated in this area. The proposed conference will bring together leaders and emerging leaders in the field of jury research for a conversation about the future of jury research. Participants will come from a variety of disciplines, including law, psychology, sociology, economics, and criminology. This interdisciplinary group will address important questions that remain unresolved in the area, identify new questions of theoretical and practical importance, assess the contributions of theoretical models of individual and group decision making, evaluate methodological variance across studies and paradigms, and discuss the challenges to ecological validity in current and future research efforts.Improving the quality of research on jury behavior has the potential to increase the impact of the research on legal practice and decisions, as well as improve the justice received by plaintiffs, complainants, and defendants participating in jury trials. In addition, the discussions of interesting and important research questions and debates about appropriate methodologies could impact graduate training in law and social science, influencing the quality of work produced by the next generation of scholars. The conference will be held at a Hispanic Serving Institution and we will provide opportunities for graduate and undergraduate students to attend the conference and benefit from the discussions.

自经典专着《美国陪审团》（Kalven＆Zeisel，1966年）出版以来，关于陪审团和陪审团决策的研究在过去的45年中一直激增。尽管陪审团的奖学金显然是数量的特征，但有些人对该领域产生的研究质量的可变性表示担忧。 拟议的会议将召集陪审团研究领域的领导人和新兴领导人，以讨论陪审团研究的未来。参与者将来自各种学科，包括法律，心理学，社会学，经济学和犯罪学。这个跨学科的小组将解决该领域尚未解决的重要问题，确定理论和实际重要性的新问题，评估个人和小组决策的理论模型的贡献，评估跨研究和范式跨研究的方法论差异，并讨论对当前和未来研究的练习的生态有效性的挑战。原告，投诉人和被告参加陪审团审判。此外，关于适当方法论的有趣而重要的研究问题和辩论的讨论可能会影响法律和社会科学的研究生培训，从而影响下一代学者所产生的工作质量。会议将在西班牙裔服务机构举行，我们将为研究生和本科生提供参加会议并从讨论中受益的机会。
