Did early psychologists working in applied research identify as: A) forensic psychologists B) behavioural scientists C) no formal name existedD) criminal profilers
C) no formal name existed
Early psychologists working in applied research identified themselves as “behavioral scientists”. They used their understanding of human behavior and psychological principles to study a wide range of real-life phenomena from workplace productivity to social interactions, and criminal behavior. The term “forensic psychology” emerged much later to describe the application of psychology to the legal system and criminal justice. Criminal profiling was also introduced in later years, and it is a specific application of forensic psychology, typically used to help law enforcement officials solve crimes by developing a profile of the offender based on behavioral analysis and psychological assessment.
