这项研究考察了那些被错误定罪和惩罚的人在被赦免后的生活经历。利用对55名无罪推定者的个人面对面密集访谈的数据，我们测量了与错误定罪相关的短期和长期心理影响。这项研究的结果表明，在采访时，很大一部分研究参与者患有临床焦虑、抑郁、创伤后应激障碍或这三种障碍的组合。最后，我们呼吁采取更综合的办法，解决被错误定罪的人所经历的各种往往相互关联的社会、心理和精神健康问题。
This study examines how those wrongfully convicted and punished experience life after exoneration. Using data from intensive individual, in-person interviews with 55 exonerees, we measure both the short- and long-term psychological effects associated with wrongful conviction. The results of this research demonstrate that a substantial portion of the study participants were suffering from clinical anxiety, depression, PTSD or a combination of the three disorders at the time of the interviews. Finally, we call for more integrated approaches for addressing a wide range of often interrelated social, psychological and mental health issues experienced by those who were wrongfully convicted.
