Smith, Jones, & Terry 2008 investigated the effects of death-qualification on jurors' confidence. A "death-qualified" juror is one who is willing to give the death penalty. 60 college students were randomly assigned to one of 2 different conditions. In both conditions, participants completed a short questionnaire that asked them whether they would or would not be willing to give the death penalty. In the first condition, participants reported aloud their response, and those participants who were not willing to give the death penalty were asked to leave the experiment. In the other condition, participants handed in their response on a written survey. Again, the researchers told participants who were not willing to give the death penalty to leave. After participants unwilling to give the death penalty left, the researchers told the remaining 45 "death-qualified" participants to fill out surveys regarding how confident they felt in their original death-qualification answers. The researchers found that, "participants in the verbal response condition were more confident in their death qualification status than participants in the written response condition". The researchers concluded that making public commitments about death-qualification status makes participants more confident in their death-qualified status.
