Learn how biases shape juror perceptions that may result in leaning toward one party over the other and ways to overcome juror reluctance to identify and admit bias.Bias – the term carries a strongly negative connotation, yet we all have them. Think of them as inclinations, assumptions, general beliefs, and results from a lifetime of experiences. Jurors who are assembled in a room full of strangers, attorneys, and authority in the form of the judge, feel that bias is bad. They often don’t want to admit that they have biases - beliefs and life experiences that will direct their attention, provide them with specific insight, and lead them to draw conclusions that are shaped by something other than the evidence.
