Actual problems in the expert competence of a psychologist in civil proceedings of the Republic of Uzbekistan (on the example of psychological and psychiatric examinations)

Abstract

This article discusses the criteria of expert competence in conducting forensic psychological and forensic psychiatric research. The author pays special attention to the trends in the objective interpretation of expert opinions in the aspect of legal law. The history of our long-term practical activity in the field of forensic psychology reveals many prospects for a critical analysis of the provisions, which allows us to move “from the point of stagnation” and clarify objective directions, taking into account the methodological positions adopted both in the CIS countries and in foreign countries. The aspects of our review include questions related to the influence of emotional states on the behavior of a person in a legal status.
