Whether you want to pursue a career in forensic psychology or have decided to learn about the subject for personal reasons, you've come to the right place.

This informative course will give you a detailed look at the field of forensic psychology and help you understand the intricacies of criminal behavior.

We'll begin by going through the origins of forensic psychology and discussing how law and psychology intersect in this field.

We'll also discuss the nature of crimes, including forensic psychology's assessment, treatment, and consultation stages. Later, we'll use case studies to give concrete examples of criminal behavior. And lastly, we'll go through different aspects of forensic psychology training.

First, let's go through where the word "forensics" comes from. Forensics derives from the Latin word "forensis." This, in turn, was taken from an Ancient Roman word meaning "the forum," referencing their judicial system.

Now that you know the word's history let's go through what forensic psychology is.

In simple terms, forensic psychology integrates psychology with law. Forensic psychologists use their psychological knowledge to understand the nature of crimes.

Another definition comes from the American Board of Psychology, which defines forensic psychology as the "application of psychological principles to issues involving law and the judicial system."

Forensic psychology is relatively new compared to other fields. Despite this, it has quickly risen in popularity.

Many graduate programs now offer dual degrees in psychology and law or specializations in forensic psychology. People who earn these degrees are often employed in the criminal and civil justice systems.

So, what tasks do forensic psychologists perform?

Well, many testify in court as expert witnesses. They also assess defendants' competency to stand trial, determine defendants' criminal responsibility, verify defense claims regarding intoxication and amnesia, predict violent behavior, evaluate eyewitness testimony, and provide testimony on appropriate sentencing.

Forensic psychologists can also assist in other judicial proceedings, such as performing child custody evaluations.

Now that you know what forensic psychologists do, let's review how they gather information.

Most forensic psychologists use forensic interviewing and psychological evaluations to assess their subjects. Forensic interviews gather the information that can be used in legal proceedings. Psychological evaluations check a defendant's mental status and determine if any disorders are present.

Other assessment methods used are forensic hypnosis and polygraphs.

Forensic hypnosis helps witnesses recall information about the crime scene and the suspect. This assessment tool is rare and only used in specific cases.

Polygraphs, or lie detectors, record physiological indicators such as blood pressure, pulse, respiration, and skin conductivity while a person answers questions. This helps forensic psychologists determine if they are lying. Today, polygraphs are rarely used because there are concerns about their trustworthiness.
