    • Note
    • As Michael O'Hear has explained: Despite the conventional wisdom that present feelings of remorse predict future desistance from crime, very little research has been done to substantiate the remorse-recidivism connection. To be sure, psychologists recognize that a person's feelings of guilt regarding something he or she has done tend to induce pro-social behavior ⋯ But it is far from clear that the emotion that sentencing judges characterize as "remorse" or "contrition" is the same (or at least has the same behavioral consequences) as the emotion that psychologists label "guilt," as opposed, for instance, to such emotions as shame and embarrassment, with which guilt is often confused.

    • On the other hand, defendants could conceivably oppose the recognition of constitutional rights at sentencing on the ground that it reduces judicial discretion at sentencing. They may argue that sentencing individualization tends to advantage most defendants, because it allows judges to sentence defendants well below the harsh statutory maximum penalties, thereby tempering the various political forces that have led to the modem trend toward higher statutory sentencing ranges.
