Thesis (Ph.D.)--Stanford University, 2003.

Despite the importance of jury decisions to the legal system, many jurors do not actively participate during deliberations. The "Need for Cognition" (NC) Scale, a well-known personality inventory which measures intrinsic motivation to think, was used to test the idea that individuals who are high in NC more actively engage in jury deliberations. Two studies are reported. The first study showed that when groups of four participants (two high and two low in NC) deliberated together, high-NCs spoke significantly longer than low-NCs. High-NCs were also perceived by their jury-mates and by neutral observers as more active and more assertive in deliberations. High-NCs were not, however, viewed as making arguments that were more valid or more logical.

520 $a Despite the importance of jury decisions to the legal system, many jurors do not actively participate during deliberations. The "Need for Cognition" (NC) Scale, a well-known personality inventory which measures intrinsic motivation to think, was used to test the idea that individuals who are high in NC more actively engage in jury deliberations. Two studies are reported. The first study showed that when groups of four participants (two high and two low in NC) deliberated together, high-NCs spoke significantly longer than low-NCs. High-NCs were also perceived by their jury-mates and by neutral observers as more active and more assertive in deliberations. High-NCs were not, however, viewed as making arguments that were more valid or more logical.
520 $a In the second study, high-NCs and low-NCs interacted with a confederate who was trained to make either strong or weak arguments against the position advocated by the participant. Contrary to expectation, low-NCs were more responsive than high-NCs to differences in argument quality, as evidenced by stronger levels of agreement with confederates who made strong arguments (as opposed to weak ones), and a marginally greater tendency to switch positions on the case when deliberating with such a confederate. High-NCs and low-NCs were equally able to recall the confederate's arguments. Collectively, these results raise interesting questions about whether certain conclusions concerning NC in the context of older paper-and-pencil research on persuasion might not apply to persuasion that occurs during interpersonal interactions. An additional finding concerned the quality of arguments that the participants generated themselves. Objective evaluations of these arguments by neutral observers revealed that arguments generated by low-NC participants were as strong and as persuasive as those generated by high-NC participants.
520 $a A model that integrates these findings is presented. This model suggests that, in the context of mock jury deliberations, high-NCs appear to be active participators whereas low-NCs seem to be quiet contemplators. Future research directions and possible implications for legal practice and dispute resolution are discussed.
