What is Forensic Psychology?
Forensic psychology examines the interrelations among psychology and law. Forensic psychologists in academic settings might study legal issues from a psychological perspective (like how jurors assign responsibility for a crime).
Forensic psychologists also work in applied settings. They might conduct an evaluation to determine whether someone is competent to stand trial, or conduct research on the factors that influence competence. They might offer expert testimony on the reliability of eyewitness accounts. It's a huge field with lots of opportunities.
