Although the Daubert decision, which overturned the 1923 Frye decision upon which courts had come to rely, did not discuss social and behavioral science evidence explicitly, it has significant implications for the admissibility of this evidence. Jasanoff's argument that judges are influenced by their own preferences and prejudices seems particularly relevant to psychological syndrome evidence. The Supreme Court's guidelines rely on criteria such as falsifiability and error rate, which are difficult to apply to psychological syndrome evidence. For example, to assess error rates, judges must evaluate the methodology used in the corroborative testing carried out. Thus, biases, prejudices, and misinformation may interfere with the achievement of justice in cases involving psychological syndrome evidence. Footnotes
