【摘 要】 经验法则是指人们从生活经验中归纳获得的关于事物因果关系或属性状态的法则或知识。经验法则在司法审判实践中具有证据评价、事实推定以及法律解释的功能。由于受法官主观水平的影响，加之经验法则适用制度的不完善，经验法则在司法审判实践中产生了一定的局限性。建议从确立法律规范、完善质疑和上诉程序、明确经验法则标准、限制法官自由裁量权以及保障当事人证明权等方面进行完善。

Study on the Application and Improvement of Experience rule. Jiang Zhenming, Director of Research Institute of the Superior People′s Court of Tibet

【Abstract】 The experience rule is the rule or knowledge of the causality relationship or nature of things obtained from people′s daily life. It has such functions as assessing evidence, inferring fact-finding and interpreting law in the judicial practice. Due to its imperfect application system and judge′s personal qualifications, the experience rule plays a limited role in the judicial practice. This paper suggests to improve it by setting up legal norms, perfecting the challenge and appeal procedure, establishing its standard, limiting judicial discretion and protecting the party′s right to proveies.
