| Summary: | Lawyers' evaluation of the performance of forensic psychologists and their relationship with them is a topic that has hardly been studied empirically despite the great relevance of these aspects for the development of legal psychology. An online questionnaire was used to question 317 practicing lawyers in Spain. The results indicate that Spanish lawyers consider court reports to be more useful and influential on the judge than party reports. In addition, a higher percentage of lawyers consider that judicial psychologists should improve the speed of their reports and the clarity of their wording, while private forensic psychologists should improve their ratification skills and training in legal aspects. The cost of the expertise is the element that lawyers consider to be the most influential when commissioning a party report. We conclude by discussing the relevance of the findings for the professional development of forensic psychology. Las valoraciones de los letrados sobre el desempeño de los psicólogos forenses y su relación con ellos es un tema apenas estudiado empíricamente pese a la gran relevancia de estos aspectos para el desarrollo de la psicología jurídica. Mediante un cuestionario online se interrogó al respecto a 317 abogados ejercientes en España. Los resultados indican que los letrados españoles consideran que los informes judiciales tienen una mayor utilidad e influencia sobre el juzgador que los informes emitidos desde el ámbito privado o de parte. Además, en un mayor porcentaje los letrados consideran que los psicólogos judiciales deben mejorar en la rapidez de emisión de sus informes y en la claridad de la redacción de estos y los psicólogos forenses privados en sus habilidades de ratificación y en la formación en aspectos jurídicos. El coste del peritaje es el elemento que los letrados consideran que es el más influyente a la hora de encargar un informe de parte. Se concluye discutiendo la relevancia de los hallazgos para el desarrollo profesional de la psicología forense. |
