Welcome to another Research @ OU Law School podcast.

In this episode I have a chat with Paul Troop who is an Associate Lecturer at the Law School. In this episode we talk about his research into how judges reason when they decide cases. However, he is taking an unorthodox approach, he is using insights from cognitive science on how people reason to test how ordering (scheduling) decisions affects the decisions' outcome. He draws his inspiration from various places, including the Trolley Problem found across moral philosophy (https://youtu.be/bOpf6KcWYyw). I hope you enjoy this talk.
