520 3 _aWe present experimental results on groups facing a dicision problem analogous to that faced by a jury. We consider three treatement variables: group size (three or six), number of votes needed for conviction (majority or unanimity), and pre-vot deliberation. We find evidence of strategic voting under unanimity rule: a large farction of our subjects vote for decision analogous to conviction even when their private information indicates a state analogous to innocence. This is roughly consistent with the game theoretic predictions of Feddersen and Pesendorfer. Although individual behavior is explained well by ghe game theoretic model, there are discrepancies at the level of the group decision. Contraty to Feddersen and Pesendorfer, nour experiments there are fewer outcomes analogous to incorrect convictions under unanimity rule than under majority rule. In the case of no deliberation, we simultaneously accont for the individual and group data using quantial response equilibrium
