品格证据是一项发端于英美法系国家的证据规则。对品格证据在刑事诉讼中如何运用这一问题,英美法系国家以证据的相关性为出发点规定了详尽的规则,指导司法实践。品格证据作为当代证据法学的一个非常重要的内容,不仅对我国的证据立法有重要的意义,而且对我国刑事诉讼也有一定的支撑和实现作用。但我国学者对其研究却较少。因而笔者以品格证据为题进行了一番尝试性的探讨,以期能对证据制度的完善有一些意义。 Character evidence is a set of rules of evidence that originated in common law countries. On the issue of how to apply the evidence of character in criminal proceedings, Anglo-American countries set forth detailed rules based on the relevance of the evidence to guide the judicial practice. As a very important content of contemporary evidence jurisprudence, the evidence of character not only plays an important role in the legislation of evidence in our country, but also supports and realizes the criminal lawsuit in our country. However, there are few researches in our country. Therefore, the author conducted a tentative discussion on the subject of character evidence in the hope of making some sense to the improvement of the evidence system.
