Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A forensic psychologist specializes in applying psychological principles and theories to legal issues, especially in the criminal justice system. Therefore, a forensic psychologist would be the most appropriate expert to provide insights regarding the psychological profile of a defendant in a criminal trial. Social, experimental, and biological psychologists may not have the necessary expertise in forensic psychology to provide relevant testimony in a criminal trial.
