The Depravity Standard

I recently participated in a survey for The Depravity Standard, a research project by The Forensic Institute; and though I'd share it.



It is ostensibly an attempt to create an evidence-based standard to inform criminal prosecution and sentencing, in preference to the emotionally-laden and vague standards currently in common use.

From what I can see, the project is legit. The Forensic Institute was created by Dr. Michael Welner, a forensic psychiatrist; and describes itself as the first to use peer-reviewed oversight in forensic science.



Anyone have any criticisms of the institute or study? As far as I can tell, it looks pretty solid.
