The Faltering Common Law Jury System-A Psychological Perspective
A trial by jury is possibly the single most defining feature of the common law legal system. As a people we hold a trial by jury as the ideal form of unbiased judicial procedure. However, one should be concerned with this belief, especially due the the preponderance of experimental evidence that suggests the jury system is failing in almost every one of its goals. This review considers evidence that portrays the 'jury of one peers' as a group that is highly susceptible to stereotypes, manipulation, and influences, all of which go far beyond the scope of legally relevant information.

The relationship between Biochemistry & Aggression (Part 1)
The relationships between biochemistry and neurochemistry with violent human aggression is investigated. Biochemical studies strongly support a positively correlated relationship between testosterone and aggression. A mediating relationship between cortisol and testosterone is apparent. Neurochemical evidence is not as clear. However, a significant relationship between serotonergic functioning and aggression is evident. Causal relationships have been difficult to infer, but, are somewhat supported.
