Forensic Psychology: It’s Not What You See on TV - Madison Harvey

This presentation will give an overview of the topic of forensic psychology (the intersection of psychology and the law). A major focus of the presentation will be on current research happening at Simon Fraser University, particularly in the areas of witness credibility, voice identification, and memory. Examples involving real cases will help to illustrate the ideas to students. Possible education and career paths will also be discussed.
Presenter: Madison Harvey, SFU's Forensic Psychology program.
Originally presented as part of FASS's e-Sampler series, helping our students prepare for and succeed in their studies at SFU: www.sfu.ca/fass/students/pros...

I was majoring in social work last year and have been thinking about changing my major to psychology. I didn’t know much about forensic psychology, but it sounded interesting to me. This presentation was really helpful in understanding the area of study. Thanks!

You could always double major or pick one and pursue a masters degree

How reliable is speech recognition software that is used in digital assistants and caller verification? Is speech recognition software ever used in court?

[@oppressednolonger1497]

very reliable. speech recognition software has been used successfully in a court of law for several years now.

8:42 "Forensic psychology isn't the same as in tv shows." Uses a tv show clip as an example of forensic psychology. 😂
