In a trial, the judge will sometimes instruct a jury to disregard evidence. According to the research cited in Influence, what is a common result of the judge's instructions?
 
  (a) The jury successfully disregards the evidence and renders a decision similar to the one they would have arrived at had they never heard the disregarded evidence.
  (b) The jury overreacts to the judge's instructions and renders a decision in the opposite direction of the evidence.
  (c) The jury ignores the judge's instructions and renders a decision as if the judge had never instructed the jury to disregard the evidence.
  (d) The jury focuses on the disregarded evidence and renders a decision that incorporates it even more strongly than had the judge never instructed them to disregard it.
