Psychological Testimony

The editors of this book state in the Preface that “this volume is not a ‘how to guidebook.’ ” While this is certainly true, the chapters explaining legal issues (e.g., rules of evidence) offer what is essentially an advanced primer on evidentiary law as it relates to psychological testimony in civil and criminal trials. It is in this regard that the work has its greatest value.

Psychological Testimony

The debate between McCloskey and Egeth and Loftus concerning the usefulness of expert psychological testimony in court serves here as the springboard for an essay-review of a significant part of its context, a retrospective evaluation of Loftus's book Eyewitness Testimony. The partisanship evident in the book provides a case study of the unusual vulnerability of psychology, in policy contexts, to overgeneralization and underqualification of small average effects.
