Dr. Russell's scholarly and teaching interests include psychology and law, perceptions of victims and perpetrators of domestic violence, homicide defendants, and the social psychological and cognitive aspects of jury decision making. I was responsible for data collection and analysis for perpetrators of domestic violence. The data collected was used for a poster that Dr. Russell, myself and another student co-created. Dinger, R.
