The Marshall Hypothesis is what came of Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall's belief and argument that support of the death Penalty comes from a lack of knowledge about it. He believed that the more information the populace had about the death penalty, the less they would support it. (Though he believed that knowledge would make no difference to people who supported the death penalty for retributive reasons)

Social Psychologists have tested this hypothesis extensively, and found that it is partially true.

How did barry marshall test his hypothesis?

Barry Marshall tested his hypothesis that Helicobacter pylori bacteria caused peptic ulcers by self-experimentation. In 1984, he ingested a culture of the bacteria to demonstrate its effects, which resulted in him developing gastritis and ulcer-like symptoms. This bold approach provided evidence supporting his theory and helped shift the medical understanding of ulcer causes from stress and diet to bacterial infection. His work ultimately led to effective treatments for peptic ulcers.
