Empirically Investigating Judicial Emotion
Keywords:
Judges, emotion, empirical research, research methods, Jueces, emociones, investigación empírica, métodos de investigaciónAbstract
The empirical study of judicial emotion has enormous but largely untapped potential to illuminate a previously underexplored aspect of judging, its processes, outputs, and impacts. After defining judicial emotion, this article proposes a theoretical taxonomy of approaches to its empirical exploration. It then presents and analyses extant examples of such research, with a focus on how the questions they ask fit within the taxonomy and the methods they use to answer those questions. It concludes by identifying areas for growth in the disciplined, data-based exploration of the many facets of judicial emotion.El estudio empírico de las emociones en la judicatura tiene un potencial enorme, pero poco explorado, para arrojar luz sobre un aspecto de la profesión judicial poco explorado previamente, sus procesos, resultados y efectos. Tras definir la emoción judicial, el artículo propone una taxonomía teórica de abordajes a su estudio empírico. Después, presenta y analiza ejemplos existentes de esa investigación, poniendo especial atención en la forma en que las preguntas que se formulan encajan en la taxonomía y en los métodos que utilizan para responder a aquéllas. Concluye identificando áreas de crecimiento en el estudio disciplinado y basado en datos de las múltiples facetas de la emoción judicial.
