@akuersten@mstdn.social that sounds fascinating! I was reading the other day [1] that jurors put too much weight to DNA evidence. [2]

And I'm wondering: to what extent is it the responsibility of lawyers/courts to contextualise data to non-experts? Or like, is evidence of mental illness better conveyed through other kinds of evidence, like expert testimony?

Your paper sounds interesting, might have a read of it some time later this week :)
