elements of procedural fairness and sought to assess whether a conscious practice of

Intentional Awarnessingcould have positive impacts on judicial officers’ responsibilities

in this regard.

Limitations

The number of survey and practice participants for this survey is small and varies in the

pre- and post- practice responses. However, the importance of the findingsremains

significant and certainly raise a compelling call for further attention and action in this

area. Additionally, for clearer comparative analysis, percentages were rounded to the

nearest whole number.

FOUNDATIONAL DATA

Twenty judicial officers completed the pre-practice entrance survey and were sent the

practices to be completed in the 27-day period. Notably, seventeen judicial officers

responded to the exit survey. As such, the response rate for the practice was 85%. This

was considered significant given the sample size.

For the bio and information data that are presented below, the figures reflected are from

the exit survey as it captures participants who completed both surveys. Where the data

shows pre-practice and post-practice responses, the relevant percentages based on the

number of participants in the pre- and post-practice surveys are reflected. As mentioned

earlier, percentages are presented to the nearest whole number.
