“…Although numerous studies have measured how defendant gender influences jurors' verdicts (e.g., Bornstein & Muller, 2001;Nagal & Hagan, 1983;Quas et al, 2002;Russell, Ragatz, & Kraus, 2012;Spohn & Spears, 1997), those that measure jurors' specific stereotypes and emotions about defendant gender in insanity trials are far less common (Breheney et al 2007; Mossière & Maeder, 2016). In fact, while research has demonstrated that gender stereotypes significantly impact jurors' perceptions of a woman defendant's guilt (Maeder & Dempsey, 2013), the literature has not yet examined which specific stereotypes (e.g., warmth and competence stereotypes; Fiske, Cuddy, Glick, & Xu, 2002) jurors consult when determining the criminal responsibility of men and women defendants.…”
