Resumo
Desde el ámbito de la Psicología del Testimonio se han creado y desarrollado
una serie de técnicas dirigidas a la obtención de la declaración y a la evaluación de su
credibilidad. Este esfuerzo ha dado lugar a una serie de instrumentos cuya utilidad ha
sido probada científica y empíricamente. Por consiguiente, la labor del psicólogo
forense puede constituir un importante mecanismo auxiliar de la justicia, sobre todo en
aquellas casuísticas caracterizadas por la dificultad probatoria, en las que el juzgador ha
de dictar sentencia basándose, casi exclusivamente, en el testimonio de las partes. En el
presente trabajo se abordarán algunas de estas técnicas con un doble objetivo. Primero,
poner al alcance del lector de manera escueta una serie de instrumentos de reconocida
eficacia dentro del ámbito psicológico-forense y, segundo, reivindicar un mayor
reconocimiento de las bondades que puede ofrecer la intervención del psicólogo forense
dentro de la sala de justicia.
Within the realm of eyewitness testimony one has created and developed a series of techniques that aim to elicit reports and assess their reliability. This effort has given rise to a set of instruments whose utility has been scientifically and empirically demonstrated. Therefore, the work of forensic psychologists may constitute a significant auxiliary mechanism of justice, mainly in those cases characterized by a lack of evidence, requiring that the verdict be almost exclusively based on eyewitnesses’ accounts. In this paper we discuss some of the techniques with a double goal. Firstly, we want to provide an overview of some valuable methods of interviewing, and secondly we argue that the judicial procedures may be enhanced with the intervention of Forensic psychologists.
