With increasing frequency, the proof of facts in legal proceedings
en tails the use of quantitative methods. Judges, lawyers,
statisticians, social scientists, and many others involved in
judicial processes must address is sues such as the evaluation and
interpretation of quantitative evidence, the ethical and
professional obligations of expert witnesses, and the roles of
court-appointed witnesses. The Panel on Statistical Assessments as
Evi dence in the Courts was convened to help clarify these issues
and provide some guidance in addressing the difficulties
encountered in the use of quan titative assessments in legal
proceedings. This report is the culmination of more than three
years of research and deliberation. In it, we address a variety of
issues that arise in federal and state court proceedings when
statistical assessments such as quantitative descriptions, causal
inferences, and predictions of events based on earlier occurrences
are presented as evidence. We appraise the forms in which such
assessments are presented, aspects of their admission into
evidence, and the response to and evaluation of them by judges and
juries."
