Description
Psychologists have been increasingly called on to testify in child abuse cases. The rough and tumble world of courtroom machinations, however, has left many wondering how they can protect themselves and their science from manipulation and misuse by the court system
Description
In this volume, eminent lawyers, psychologists, and social workers discuss the thornier aspects of testimony and provide recommendations on the proper role of the expert witness. How can psychologists participate in the legal realm while maintaining the integrity of their science? How can expert witnesses avoid the trap of advocating for a client rather than providing neutral information?
