From March 17-19, Dr. Cox and lab members attended the American Psychology-Law Society annual conference in beautiful Denver, Colorado (#APLS2022). Hannah Lind gave a presentation on confirmation bias in prosecutorial decision making, Haylie Stewart gave her first ever(!) APLS presentation on social dominance orientation and gendered legislation, and Liz MacNeil gave TWO presentations on 1) prosecutorial discretion in sex work cases and, 2) psychopathic traits and plea bargaining. Dr. Cox paired with work-wife, Dr. Kois, and researchers from Fulton Co., GA, the University of Virginia, and Denver University, to present a symposium on the national (in)competency crisis. So many UA grad students were involved in the conference - check out the conference program at https://www.dropbox.com/s/agn7zl214efodso/AP-LS%202022%20Full%20Program.pdf?dl=0  Haylie Stewart, Liz MacNeil, Dr. Cox, and Hannah Lind at the 2022 APLS conference. A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to lab alum, Marissa Stanziani, who married fellow UA alum, Keisha Carden, in New Orleans on March 12, 2022! Other UA and #LabAwesome alumni attended the celebration, including Adam Coffey, Liz Bownes, and Rachel deLacy (who served as an attendant!). In what will absolutely be one of the top 5 moments of her life, Dr. Cox officiated the wedding and was honored to harness the power vested in her by Ruth Bader Ginsberg to announce the beautiful brides wife and wife! Cheers to the beautiful couple!  HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to Liz MacNeil. On March 8, Liz successfully defended her thesis project, "The Effect of Gender Identity and Gender Role Attitudes in Prosecutorial Decision-Making in a Case of Prostitution." Liz found mock prosecutor gender role attitudes impact case processing decisions in a case of prosecution. We are SO PROUD of Liz!
