This detailed reference work is intended to help both professionals and students distinguish between supported and unsupported courtroom techniques, and how to avoid those that may be misleading or inadmissible in a courtroom. The editors and authors address four primary areas that have seen considerable research advances in recent years: memory and suggestibility, specialized assessment instruments, forensic evaluation of psycholegal issues, and criminal sentencing. Controversial issues such as recovered memories, lie detection, child witnesses, offender rehabilitation, and violence risk assessment also are addressed. Editors Skeem (psychology and social behavior, U. of California), Douglas (law and forensic psychology, Simon Fraser U.), Lilienffeld (psychology, Emory U.), and 36 co-authors contributed to the book.
