How judges judge | Brian Barry | TEDxFulbrightDublin
Ideally, judges’ decisions should always be impartial, rational and unbiased. After all, ‘Lady Justice’ wears a blindfold and carefully balances the scales of justice. However, remarkable recent research from behavioural science and social psychology is beginning to show why ‘Lady Justice’ (and all she stands for) is not quite what she seems. Judging is a tricky and very human business. In this talk, Dr Brian Barry tells us about research that ‘judges the judges’ showing some unnerving results: psychological errors, biases, poor numerical reasoning, and excessive emotion may all have a bearing on judicial outcomes.
Brian is a lecturer in law and a researcher in judicial systems and judicial decision-making. His research investigates how factors, other than law, affect judges when they make decisions. He is currently writing a book called How Judges Judge: Insights into judicial decision-making that assimilates and analyses global research on the psychological, institutional and political forces that can impact judicial decision-making and judicial behaviour.
Brian lectures at Dublin Institute of Technology which will become Technological University Dublin on 01 January 2019. He has a law degree and a PhD from the School of Law, Trinity College Dublin and is a qualified solicitor. He has undertaken research programmes as a visiting scholar at Columbia University, New York and the University of Toronto and is widely published in academic journals and in the media on judges and dispute resolution systems.
