Definition: Jurimetrics is the use of scientific or empirical methods, including measurement, in the study or analysis of legal matters.

Examples: Jurimetrics can involve using mathematical models to predict the outcome of a court case, analyzing data to identify patterns in judicial decision-making, or conducting surveys to gather information about public attitudes towards the law.
