Sexual Assault Trials Handbook — Recording evidence and evidentiary issues in child sexual abuse cases

J Goodman-Delahunty and N Martchuk, “Mock jury and juror responses to uncharged acts of sexual misconduct: advances in the assessment of unfair prejudice” (2020) 228(3) Zeitschrift für Psychologie 199.

This experimental study looks at jury responses to relationship evidence in the form of uncharged sexual acts by the same perpetrator against the victim. While admissible incriminating evidence of uncharged acts by an accused is internationally presumed to be unfairly prejudicial, the study found that there was little danger of unfair prejudice, based on multiple convergent measures.
