Given the recent proliferation of undergraduate psychology and law courses, there is an increased need to empirically evaluate effective methods of teaching psycholegal material. The current study used a between- and within-subject design across four higher education institutions (N = 291 students) to evaluate the effectiveness of incorporating experiential learning activities in undergraduate psychology and law courses. Students who participated in the experiential activities performed significantly better than did control students on exam questions related to some, but not all, of the activities. In addition, experiential students consistently rated aspects of the course as more enjoyable than did control students. Results suggest that the inclusion of experiential learning activities has the potential to improve student performance and increase interest and motivation.
... Sources such as Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) advisory circulars (Acs), federal aviation regulations (FAr), aeronautical information manual (AiM), and handbooks can be effective text-based materials due to their thoroughness and level of detail. nevertheless, student-centred learning strategies such as experiential learning and active learning can increase students' performance, interest, and motivation (cicuto and torres 2016; Zelechoski, riggs romaine, and Wolbransky 2017;Voukelatou 2019). Previous literature has demonstrated that augmented reality (Ar) technology, combined with active learning teaching strategies, provides positive benefits, including enhanced students' interest and motivation, understanding of content, and knowledge comprehension/expansion through visual representation (Koutromanos and Jimoyiannis 2023;Meister et al. 2023). ...

... Although experiences varied, the practical problem of gaining access to vulnerable participants (such as young people who offend) was highlighted in all the different data sources. Legal and ethical requirements placed on particular groups participating in research, e.g., young people in general and certain groups such as young people who offend, mean that designated staff within services often have to take on the role of 'gatekeeping' between the young person and the opportunity to take part in a research study [29][30][31]. In the case of community forensic services, pressures on services to actively and effectively engage with young people and their families in compulsory youth justice work on an involuntary basis, is challenging. ...

... A multilevel regression model was employed in this study to examine mechanisms linking house prices and the self-rated health of older adults. A null model of self-rated health, using the dependent variable, was employed to calculate the intraclass correlation (ICC) [83]. The ICC model was specified as follows: ...

... They typically differ in scale, duration, and intensity. Weather-related natural disasters are generally limited in time and demand attention and action over a relatively short period of time [7]. Biological natural disasters, on the other hand, are long-lasting and require attention and action over much longer periods of time [8]. ...

... versus absent (77.3%). Although lawyers may not be highly accurate in their trial verdict predictions (Goodman-Delahunty et al., 2010), research suggests that they do advise plea offers in the shadow of trial (Kramer et al., 2007;Pezdek & O'Brien, 2014). In a study involving hypothetical decisions, for example, Hellgren and Kassin (2022) found that when the evidence was weak and the defendant did not confess, only 3% of practicing defense attorneys recommended a plea offer. ...
