Forensic mental health assessment (FMHA) has grown into a specialization informed by research and professional guidelines. This series presents up-to-date information on the most important and frequently conducted forms of FMHA. The 19 topical volumes address best approaches to practice for particular types of evaluation in the criminal, civil, and juvenile/family areas. Each volume contains a thorough discussion of the relevant legal and psychological concepts, followed by a step-by-step description of the assessment process from preparing for the evaluation to writing the report and testifying in court.

Volumes include the following helpful features:

· Boxes that zero in on important information for use in evaluations

· Tips for best practice and cautions against common pitfalls

· Highlighting of relevant case law and statutes

· Separate list of assessment tools for easy reference

· Helpful glossary of key terms for the particular topic

In making recommendations for best practice, authors consider empirical support, legal relevance, and consistency with ethical and professional standards. These volumes offer invaluable guidance for anyone involved in conducting or using forensic evaluations.

Industry Reviews

"This volume is a gem. It is rare to find a volume so well done that it cannot be improved. Each of the seven chapters is concise, yet thorough...Volumes such as this one not only help to make psychologists more effective in the legal arena but also may well help increase their numbers while reducing the divide that has long separated law and psychology. Meanwhile, Evaluating Eyewitness Identification is an essential reference for any psychologist interested in testifying in court on eyewitness evidence."--PsycCRITIQUES
