Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Female victims are often called to testify in court about violence perpetrated against them. The victim's gender, race, and even her physical attractiveness can influence jurors' perceptions of her testimony and subsequent evaluation of the defendant's guilt. The limited research on the impact of victim gender on jury decision making has primarily focused on the influence of this extralegal factor in capital cases and in domestic violence, rape, or sexual assault cases. Generally, research has found significant, though varying, effects of victim gender on jurors' legal decisions and verdicts.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
