At any level of study or work, research and insight is always valuable. You will have your own published article forming part of that research.

The importance that Legal Psychology has gained over the last few years is an obvious fact if we consider its evolution not only at a scientific level but also in the applied field, remaining today as an inseparable part of Law and Criminology.

In the scientific field, there has been an increase in the number of journals listed globally, from 13 in 2009 to 16 in 2014, an increase in the number of scientific articles, from 576 in 2009 to 810 in 2014.

In these last five years, Legal Psychology as a discipline, has

not remained stagnant in its growth. This aspect reveals an increase in the number of groups and the strengthening of groups of experts.

Contemporary Legal Psychology is characterised by its

multidisciplinary quality This is evident when considering the multitude of issues it addresses, as has been demonstrated by the number and diversity of the key words that define each scientific article.
