Human Factors in Forensic Science Practice
The Forensic Technology Center of Excellence recently published a collection of five articles as a Special Issue in Forensic Science International (FSI): Synergy. These articles are known collectively as the Human Factors in Forensic Science Practice Sourcebook. The sourcebook is intended to educate forensic science practitioners and managers on the ways human factors can impact forensic science practice both positively and negatively and to expand the discussion beyond issues of bias. A working group that paired cognitive psychology researchers with forensic scientists met to create the sourcebook. This webinar brings together three of the authors to give an overview of the project and discuss its content.
This webinar was hosted by the NIJ Forensic Technology Center of Excellence on June 21, 2022.
