Found a notebook my kids were carrying around in Philly to take notes while we’re we’re there for #APLS2023 conference. 5 year old’s “notes” and 8 year old’s observations. 😂 ❤️

I'll look back on #APLS2023 & think of everyone who followed mine & Jen's job-cut saga & years later just wanted to say how happy they were that things worked out for us.

Everyone who welcomed my trainees & students into a chat.

Every ECP just supportive & cheering everyone on.

The second take-home
was a bit more personal.
I'll spell out this week.

But I'll end with this:
This field has some real kind folks.
See you all next year!
#APLS2023 #HaiKru

Playing the long game,
keeping your sight on real change,
that should matter more.

I am in a phase
of career that will allow
me to work this way.

This was a message
I needed to hear right now.
Thankful that I did.
#APLS2023

Many spoke about
focusing your work & voice
to make an impact.

We can do quick work,
but is quick work worth it if
it misses the point?
#APLS2023

Final haiku thread
to wrap up what I took from
this @APLS41.

Two take-homes for me.
One was about taking time
to do the work right.

When aware that they're
being tested, experts may
not act naturally.

POs seemed to make
Remorse assumptions based on
Presumed violence signs.

These cues were unsound!
Social cognitive errors
Right before our eyes.

False guilty pleas from
Investigation failures:
The most common type.

Evals since COVID:
Same diagnostic rates &
Not Comp conclusions.

VC assessments
Have not seemed to change judgments
In competency.

Jason Lawrence, Center for Behavioral Medicine
#APLS2023

VC defendants
Found it a bit less stressful,
More comfortable

BUT many comments
Suggested less awareness
Of court happenings.

No clear consensus
On how VC might impact
People’s due process.

@jenwoolard on experiences of videoconference court appearances #APLS2023

Scherr (@CMUniversity):
Use diverse samples!
Spanish has no word for "plea."
Parenting differs.
#APLS2023

.@mbfessinger (@JJ_PsychLawPhD):
For pleas and waivers,
what does "voluntary" mean?
Courts aren't consistent.

Ferreira (@IowaStateU):
They developed a
way to study Miranda
decisions online.
#APLS2023

Philleo (@JJ_PsychLawPhD):
Most parents said they
would urge their kids to invoke
their Miranda rights.
#APLS2023

Mindthoff (@IowaStateU):
When you invoke rights,
people assume you grasp them
(and think you're guilty).
#APLS2023

Attorney zeal
Attitudes predict choices
To pursue charges.

Compared to adults,
juveniles questioned by cops
feel less free to leave.

Before trial or plea,
Charge decisions need research
Help, #APLS!

Interview viewers
think suspects feel free to leave
(but they really don't).

Thanks to this panel
For being so transparent

Kieckhaefer (@Fresno_State):
Out of all supports,
exonerees rate housing
as most important.
#APLS2023

Kieckhaefer (@Fresno_State):
Exonerees face
more rejection than other
former prisoners.
#APLS2023

Kieckhaefer (@Fresno_State):
Common challenges
for exonerees include
work, health, and housing.
#APLS2023

Kieckhaefer (@Fresno_State):
The largest-ever
sample of exonerees.
Seventy-seven!

The program culture
AND mentors who support you
Are just so vital.

Compensation's nice,
but you can't put a price on
the time that was lost.
