Questions 1-4 refer to this paragraph.Smith, Jones, & Terry 2008 investigated the effects of death-qualification on jurors’ confidence.A “death-qualified” juror is one who is willing to give the death penalty. 60 college studentswere randomly assigned to one of 2 different conditions. In both conditions, participantscompleted a short questionnaire that asked them whether they would or would not be willing togive the death penalty. In the first condition, participants reported aloud their response, and thoseparticipants who were not willing to give the death penalty were asked to leave the experiment.In the other condition, participants handed in their response on a written survey. Again, theresearchers told participants who were not willing to give the death penalty to leave. Afterparticipants unwilling to give the death penalty left, the researchers told the remaining 45 “death qualified” participants to fill out surveys regarding how confident they felt in their originaldeath-qualification answers. The researchers found that, “participants in the verbal responsecondition were more confident in their death qualification status than participants in the writtenresponse condition”. The researchers concluded that making public commitments about death-qualification status makes participants more confident in their death-qualified status.1.
