Prejudicial Effect is a legal epistemological principle within the evaluation of scientific evidence that refers to the tendency of otherwise admissible evidence to unduly influence a decision-maker by arousing emotions, biases, or misconceptions, thereby outweighing its probative value and potentially compromising the fairness of adjudication.
