Clinical forensic psychology is defined by the application of
clinical psychology – assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and
consultation – in legal contexts. The term captures the
integration of clinical psychology as an applied professional
discipline and forensic psychology as an experimental discipline.
Cases in Clinical Forensic Psychology offers a series of case
studies that allow readers to take a close and personal look at the
criminal justice system in Canada. Clinical forensic psychologist
Margo C. Watt examines the particulars of each case, including the
biological, psychological, social, cultural, and legal factors. The
book takes an evidence-based approach and highlights how the
science of clinical forensic psychology informs all aspects of
criminal cases: police investigative techniques, eyewitness
testimony, pretrial publicity, jury selection and decision-making,
forensic evaluations, psychological autopsies, mental health in
corrections, and more. Examining incidents ranging from false
confessions to wrongful convictions to deaths in custody and the
ones who got away, Cases in Clinical Forensic Psychology questions
how and why these events happened and considers what we can learn
from them.
