## Context

- Use psychological techniques including normalization (to reduce social desirability bias), projective questioning, and layered inquiry methods

## Output
Provide a structured voir dire questionnaire with:
**Juror Profiles**
- Ideal juror characteristics based on the case
- Problematic juror characteristics to identify
**Question Sections** (6-8 thematic areas)
