Jurors often do not understand the technical information provided by expert witnesses. Although these expert witnesses may make conflicting claims, both appear confident, leaving juries unable to assess how reliable their testimonies are.

Juries may be swayed by factors other than reliability in a trial with expert testimony.

This is too strong. The stimulus does not advocate for any limits to be placed on technical information. It purely focuses on jurors’ ability to understand it.

The stimulus argues that jurors often cannot assess the reliability of expert witness testimonies. Thus, it is reasonable to assume that decisions involving expert witness testimonies are not always determined by their reliability.

The stimulus does not explain how jurors utilize accurately understood technical information. While it seems plausible, this is too much of an assumption.

The stimulus does not argue for any change in how jurors should be selected. This requires many assumptions to be correct.

This is anti-supported. The stimulus says that expert witnesses on opposite sides make conflicting claims.
