The current studies are designed to test the hypothesis that peoples' implicit theories of attribute mutability or stability play a role in juror judgments and sentencing decisions. In particular, we examine how people might "fill the blanks" about an offender's criminal past or projected future, which could in turn provide justification for sentencing. We focus on how assumptions about the past may be used in the absence of objective information about criminal history, predicting that entity theorists will construct an illusory set of assumptions about criminal history that can have real consequences for offender punishment.
