      Anwendungen von psychologischem Fachwissen und Wissenschaft im forensischen Kontext

      This innovative book offers a conceptual framework and clinical methods for addressing issues related to the administration of Miranda warnings and waivers. Miranda rights have faced significant compromises over decades, affecting millions of cases. Each year, numerous adult arrestees with intellectual disabilities or severe mental disorders waive their rights without adequate understanding of the Miranda warnings. Similarly, many developmentally immature juvenile detainees receive complex warnings that exceed their comprehension levels. To tackle this ongoing crisis, the book presents balanced, empirically based guidelines for conducting forensic assessments and effectively communicating findings to the legal community. It equips psychologists and related professionals with essential forensic and legal knowledge for evaluating both Miranda comprehension and waiver-relevant reasoning. The content includes a legal framework for evaluations, the structure and objectives of assessments, systematic evaluations of understanding and reasoning, decision-making processes regarding waivers and self-incrimination, and guidance on communicating results. Additionally, it explores the broader professional roles beyond individual cases, emphasizing the importance of addressing these critical issues in the justice system.
