Prospective Graduate Students
Welcome to the Forensic Decision Making Lab
​
The forensic decision making lab includes graduate and undergraduate students who assist with ongoing research studies. The lab investigates psychological phenomena related to criminal investigations and convictions in order to promote the fair administration of justice. Current research studies focus on people's interpretation of forensic decisions and the validity of forensic evidence using real-world samples (e.g., attorneys, judges, forensic experts). Prospective graduate students interested applying to work with Dr. Madon should contact her by email to inquire if she is accepting a new student and to confirm that your interests are a good fit with her ongoing and future research projects. Please visit the Law and Behavioral Science program at Arizona State University for more information about the doctoral program in Law & Psychology.
