This paper draws on research in social and cognitive psychology to show how theories of judgment and decision making that incorporate decision makers' affective responses apply to legal contexts. It takes 2 widely used models of decision making, the rational actor and lens models, and illustrates their utility for understanding legal judgments by using them to interpret research findings on juror decision making, people's obedience to the law (e.g., paying taxes), and eyewitness memory. The paper concludes with a discussion of the advantages of modifying existing approaches to information processing to include the influence of affect on how legal actors reach judgments about law and legal process.
本文借鉴社会和认知心理学的研究成果，以说明纳入决策者情感反应的判断和决策理论如何应用于法律背景。它采用了两种广泛使用的决策模型，即理性行为者模型和透镜模型，并通过用它们来解释关于陪审员决策、人们对法律的服从（如纳税）以及目击证人记忆的研究结果，来说明它们在理解法律判断方面的效用。本文最后讨论了修改现有信息处理方法以纳入情感对法律行为者如何对法律及法律程序做出判断的影响的优点。
