Researchers have concluded that there is considerable variability in the evaluation methods of forensic psychology professionals when conducting child custody evaluations. Additionally, ethical violations by psychologists when conducting these evaluations have been frequently reported to state licensing boards.* The American Psychological Association’s Guidelines for Child Custody Evaluations in Divorce Proceedings can help forensic psychology professionals perform evaluations professionally and ethically, and in the best interest of the child. However, these guidelines are aspirational in nature and do not represent mandatory standards of conduct. In this Application, you apply the Guidelines to address custody issues in a case study.
