Moa Lidén is a Researcher in General Jurisprudence at the Department of Law, Uppsala University, specializing in cognitive biases within criminal justice systems. Her work bridges legal theory, forensic science, and psychological research to address systemic flaws in judicial decision-making and criminal investigations.
Her research focuses on confirmation bias as a critical factor in wrongful convictions, examining its manifestations across police interrogations, prosecutorial decisions, and judicial rulings. She investigates debiasing techniques like alternative hypothesis testing and interdisciplinary approaches to enhance forensic reliability, with particular attention to international criminal courts and Swedish legal procedures. Her methodology combines quantitative analysis of large case datasets with qualitative studies of practitioner experiences.
Lidén's publication trends reveal escalating empirical rigor since 2020, increasingly incorporating pandemic-related disruptions to criminal justice and advanced statistical modeling for predicting judicial outcomes. She consistently targets high-impact forensic and legal journals, demonstrating interdisciplinary reach while maintaining core focus on bias mitigation in criminal proceedings across national and international contexts.
