Public Health Law Research: Theory and Methods definitively explores the mechanisms, theories and models central to public health law research – a growing field dedicated to measuring and studying law as a central means for advancing public health. Editors Alexander C. Wagenaar and Scott Burris outline integrated theory drawn from numerous disciplines in the social and behavioral sciences; specific mechanisms of legal effect and guidelines for collecting and coding empirical datasets of statutory and case law; optimal research designs for randomized trials and natural experiments for public health law evaluation; and methods for qualitative and cost-benefit studies of law.. They also discuss the challenge of effectively translating the results of scientific evaluations into public health laws and highlight the impact of this growing field. “How exactly the law can best be used as a tool for protecting and enhancing the public’s health has long been the subject of solely opinion and anecdote. Enter Public Health Law Research, a discipline designed to bring the bright light of science to the relationships between law and health. This book is a giant step forward in illuminating that subject.” -- Stephen Teret, JD, MPH, Professor, Director, Center for Law and the Public's Health, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health “Wagenaar and Burris bring a dose of much needed rigor to the empirical study of which public health law interventions really matter, and which don’t.” -- Bernard S.

A 2022 PROSE Award finalist in Legal Studies and Criminology A 2022 American Bar Association Silver Gavel Award Finalist A Behavioral Scientist’s Notable Book of 2021 Freakonomics for the law—how applying behavioral science to the law can fundamentally change and explain misbehavior Why do most Americans wear seatbelts but continue to speed even though speeding fines are higher? Why could park rangers reduce theft by removing “no stealing” signs? Why was a man who stole 3 golf clubs sentenced to 25 years in prison? Some laws radically change behavior whereas others are consistently ignored and routinely broken. And yet we keep relying on harsh punishment against crime despite its continued failure. Professors Benjamin van Rooij and Adam Fine draw on decades of research to uncover the behavioral code: the root causes and hidden forces that drive human behavior and our responses to society’s laws. In doing so, they present the first accessible analysis of behavioral jurisprudence, which will fundamentally alter how we understand the connection between law and human behavior. The Behavioral Code offers a necessary and different approach to battling crime and injustice that is based in understanding the science of human misconduct—rather than relying on our instinctual drive to punish as a way to shape behavior. The book reveals the behavioral code’s hidden role through illustrative examples like: • The illusion of the US’s beloved tax refund • German walls that “pee back” at public urinators • The $1,000 monthly “good behavior” reward that reduced gun violence • Uber’s backdoor “Greyball” app that helped the company evade Seattle’s taxi regulators • A $2.3 billion legal settlement against Pfizer that revealed how whistleblower protections fail to reduce corporate malfeasance • A toxic organizational culture playing a core role in Volkswagen’s emissions cheating scandal • How Peter Thiel helped Hulk Hogan sue Gawker into oblivion Revelatory and counterintuitive, The Behavioral Code catalyzes the conversation about how the law can effectively improve human conduct and respond to some of our most pressing issues today, from police misconduct to corporate malfeasance.

In his inaugural lecture, Peter Mascini takes issue with the goal of scientific purity in the behavioral study of the law, conceived as the deliberate choice to postulate a limited number of universally applicable behavioral principles. The guiding principle of behavioral sociology is that law behaves in correspondence to social space, while the guiding principle of law and economics is that individuals behave rationally.Peter Mascini defends a two-fold thesis: first, that the purification of sociology proposed by behavioral sociology is a blind alley that can only be exited by allowing impurity. Second, that the behavioral economics movement has offered law and economics an opportunity to reinvigorate by embracing impurity. He continues by arguing that we need even less purity in the behavioral study of the law than is offered by behavioral economics. He proposes a more modest empirical approach that no longer searches for universally applicable predictions and that allots an important role to the meanings actors attribute to their own behavior.

The success of nearly all public- and private- sector policies hinges on the behavior of individuals, groups, and organizations. Today, such behaviors are better understood than ever, thanks to a growing body of practical behavioral science research. However, policymakers often are unaware of behavioral science findings that may help them craft and execute more effective and efficient policies. The pages of this new journal will become a meeting ground: a place where scientists and non-scientists can encounter clearly described behavioral research that can be put into action. By design, the scope of BSP is broad, with topics spanning health care, financial decisionmaking, energy and the environment, education and culture, justice and ethics, and work place practices. Contributions will be made by researchers with expertise in psychology, sociology, law, behavioral economics, organization science, decision science, and marketing. The journal is a key offering of the Behavioral Science & Policy Association in partnership with the Brookings Institution. The mission of BSPA is to foster dialog between social scientists, policymakers, and other practitioners in order to promote the application of rigorous empirical behavioral science in ways that serve the public interest. BSPA does not advance a particular agenda or political perspective. The first issue’s contents follow.

Disparate impact litigation is unique, in part because outcomes often depend on statistical analysis from expert witnesses who are research psychologists. Accordingly, it is surprising that psychologists serving the court as expert witnesses in disparate impact (DI) cases often take one of two divergent roads, either focusing on case law, as Gutman et al. do in their helpful book, or on published peer-reviewed research in the behavioral sciences as Outtz does with similar effectiveness in his edited volume. Although there are prominent writers in both law and psychology who do address DI from an interdisciplinary perspective, knowledge transfer between experimental psychology and law is surprisingly meagre, even in exemplary texts such as Rutherglen and Donohue's recent book Employment Discrimination; Law and Theory, (2012) which is comprehensive in virtually every other respect. This paper seeks to expand that important interdisciplinary exchange by examining the concordance -- or lack thereof -- between empirical findings in the behavioral sciences and important DI decisions. To compile an informative set of reliable empirical studies I followed (and adapted) conventional procedures for a meta-analysis by surveying empirical studies published in peer-reviewed journals, and by applying a filter to exclude studies where statistical significance, research methodology, or effect size fell below the standards articulated both in Rosenthal's original work on meta-analysis and in the American Psychological Association's article on standards for peer reviewed research. In the interests of enhancing the quality of expert reports and the legal decisions that rely upon them, this paper begins to build an interdisciplinary cross-reference linking DI case law and published empirical research in the behavioral sciences. I use two classic texts -- Rosenthal and Rosnow's Essentials of Behavioral Research: Methods and Data Analysis (2007), and Abelson's Statistics as Principled Argument (1995) -- to provide a theoretical foundation for evaluating empirical research so that this interdisciplinary effort can proceed judiciously. I cover two issues in depth: 1) Data Aggregation and the Omnibus Null Test; and 2) Multiple Regression and the Use of Covariates. I'll close by briefly addressing causation -- a pressing issue that deserves future consideration in a similar interdisciplinary analysis that bridges law and empirical research in experimental psychology.
