A guide to working effectively with children in the criminal
justice system
Uniquely designed to train psychology, criminology, and social
work students to work with children in the criminal justice
system–both in the courtroom and as clinical
clients–Forensic Child Psychology presents current
research and practice-based knowledge to improve the judicial and
child welfare systems.
Authors Matthew Fanetti, William T. O’Donohue, Rachel N. Happel,
and Kresta N. Daly bring their combined expertise in child
psychology, forensic interviewing, and criminal prosecution to bear
on the process of obtaining accurate information from children
involved in legal proceedings, preparing professionals to work
with:
* Children who are victims of crime
* Children who are perpetrators of crime
* Children who are witnesses of crime
The book also covers related topics, including mandated
reporting, the structure of juvenile justice and advocacy systems,
and contains sidebars, summaries, glossaries, and study questions
to assist with material mastery.
This is an excellent resource for students of child
psychopathology in psychology, social work, nursing, and criminal
justice at the graduate and late undergraduate stage of their
educations.
