What type of scientific/expert testimony requires a higher standard of review before it can be used in court? a. any academic studies b. any studies developed for use at trial c. any studies in an area in which experts differ d. none of the above

The correct answer is b.

Explanation:

The Daubert Standard refers to a standard of review that will be used to determine whether the evidence or the testimony provided by an expert has scientific validity in a court of law. Generally speaking, the Daubert Standard considers whether the studies or trials have been subject to proper scientific testing, whether they have been peer reviewed, and whether they have been accepted by the scientific community. A study developed especially for use at a trial most likely has not been peer reviewed yet, nor has been accepted by the scientific community. Therefore, these studies will require much more strict and higher standards of review before they can be used in a court.
