The History and Development of Forensic Psychology | For this episode we navigate the fascinatingly intricate world of Forensic Psychology, where human behaviour, responsibility, and the law intersect. 

Our journey begins in the fertile grounds of the late 19th-century, where trailblazers like Hugo Munsterberg and James McKeen Cattell pioneered the marriage of psychology and criminal justice. Learn how psychological experiments have shaped our understanding of the reliability of eyewitness testimonies and chart a course through present-day breakthroughs. We examine complex themes such as offender profiling, psychological autopsies, and the controversial aspects of eyewitness memory. 

Prepare to glimpse into this unique discipline, where science meets justice & intellect embraces the law. Don't miss this fascinating episode of Sleep with Psychology.
