Abstrakt: | The author generally reviews crucial problems which, in his opinion, appear
in a psychology‑law
relationship, and formulates his own theoretical theses against this
background. Thus, he discusses (1) the relationships of psychology with law, (2) a psychological
and legal approach to behaviour analysis, (3) a methodological perspective of what
is objective, general and idiosyncratic in psychology, (4) a notion of “special information”
as a criterion and reason for appointing expert witnesses, (5) the subject and tasks of
a forensic psychology, (6) some methodological and crucial problems of a psychologist as
an expert witness, (7) as well as ethical‑professional
problems of an expert witness psychologist. |
