90 reviewsThis book provides a comprehensive presentation of psychological problems, such as posttraumatic stress, depression and chronic pain, that are the result of injury or trauma and legal proceedings, such as tort after motor vehicle collisions. It stresses the complex nature of these disabilities, particularly in the judicial setting, and the critical task of accurately assessing and diagnosing the extent of the injury. Assessments involve the use of standardised tests, including those that assess for negative response bias and possible malingering.
The chapters that follow cover key psychological disorders and explore their effects in a range of populations, which can vary by age, sex, and minority or racial status. It encompasses international perspectives and emphasizes the importance of relevant factors that affect assessment, rehabilitation, and compensation. It is ideal for psychologists and mental health professionals working in in a field that requires a comprehensive, scientifically-informed, impartial approach to assessment that will stand up in court.
The area of psychological injury and law is a cutting-edge field that requires expertise in both forensics and law. As a distinct field, it is relatively recent, and this Handbook is the first in the field. Most of the contributors have published in the journal Psychological Injury and Law (Springer Nature), which is a boutique journal with a growing impact factor. The team assembled to edit and to write the book comprises leaders in the field, and readers will find it useful for practice, research, and court. The handbook will appeal not only to psychologists, psychiatrists, and other mental health professionals but also to judges, attorneys, and other court workers.
