Law-psych friends, just a reminder that registration for #APLS2025 is now open! Travel to PR can be steep & I'm seeing flight prices increase so book now. I have it on good authority this conference will be one of the best ever 🙂 ap-ls.org/conferences for more info!

Maya Irvin-Vitela will be presenting this work in the Saturday 3/15 datablitz (5pm-6pm) in San Cristobol. This work is from Ciera Arnett's dissertation (Maya helped as a coder!). Interesting work & findings about psychosis, substance use, & insanity. #APLS2025 #Law #Psychology #PsychLaw #CLJLab
"The Legal Intersection of Psychosis and Substance Use: A Mixed-Methods Investigation of Settled Insanity" by Maya Irvin-Vitela, Ciera Arnett, & Tess Neal of the Clinical & Legal Judgment Lab. "The current study" slide that details the primary aims of the two studies comprising this work (case-law analysis of settled insanity cases in the U.S., and an experiment with 310 forensic mental health experts as participants). This work was preregistered and materials, data, and code are available on the OSF. Case Law Review results showing that coders with clinical science training found about 30% of the cases reviewed as having some viability for settled insanity defense from a clinical science viewpoint, contrasted with the actual legal outcome of these cases in which just one case (2% of the sample) actually had a successful settled insanity claim. Results from experiment with forensic mental health experts, showing that mental health experts generally saw settled insanity as redundant to traditional insanity. Findings across the two studies showed legal and mental health professionals agree that acute, voluntary substance intoxication at the time of a crime generally precludes the use of an insanity defense...but cases where substance use is more distal are more complicated.

Last month, I attended @aplssc.bsky.social in sunny San Juan! 🌤️ #APLS2025

I presented work showing that humans are worse at judging guilt based on walking style than a computer algorithm trained on the same dataset.

Some pics from #APLS2025! This conference was a wonderful whirlwind of networking with role models in the #psychlaw field, practicing my Spanish, learning about intellectual disability and competency attainment, and exploring San Juan (puppy cuddles were just a bonus!) 🇵🇷☀️⚖️

Puerto Rico has
no place for competence and

(They do not have a place deemed an appropriate facility for treatment to restore competency).

Just a snippet of

Recommendations…

Fix the scaffolding:
Early pathways, leader roles,
Less required debt.

Day 1 of #APLS2025 in the books. Great sessions on bringing the law back to psychology, procedural justice & the police, and effects of electoral college on voter engagement. Thankful to my awesome co-chair for getting us here!

Today’s plenary addressed the timely topic of trust in psych, law, science, & institutions. Panelists Amy Fettig, Joe Hamm, & Anthony Perillo shared their perspectives on why trust has eroded and how to build public trust in science & legal settings. Thank you to Tess Neal for moderating! #apls2025

In Canada, less
Psychopathy assessment
Has happened of late.

Do more challenges
In court & remote evals
Factor into this?

"Researchers have found that people using AI tools can succumb to 'automation bias,' a tendency to blindly trust decisions made by powerful software, ignorant to its risks and limitations."

We'll be presenting more data on this at #APLS2025...
