This book considers those legal, ethical and assessment issues that arise when forensic mental health professionals are asked to evaluate an individual's capacity to waive his or her Miranda rights, and the subsequent validity of the confession. The authors look at the history and importance of this process, the legal standards and the procedure for applying this assessment in court. Drawing upon established empirical foundations from the behavioral, social, and medical sciences, this book provides a detailed "how-to" for practitioners, including information on data collection, interpretation, report writing and expert testimony.
