  abstract = {This paper presents the results of an empirical study conducted on a number of legal practitioners in Austria, Romania and Slovenia to measure the relevance of the neuroscientific evidence when determining the legal responsibility of
a defendant during court proceedings. The legal practitioners were presented five case scenarios in which they were asked
to analyze the admissibility of neuroscientific evidence. The results revealed certain important challenges when interpreting
neuroscientific evidence for use in legal proceedings. This study summarizes those challenges and further concludes that the
application of neuroscientific data is not a straightforward matter. As such, it also argues that neuroscientific experts must play a greater role in court proceedings in order to provide better guidance to judges and other legal practitioners.},
