Abstract
Abstract With various calls in the forensic scientific literature for pattern-matching disciplines to adopt evaluative reporting (ER), which is also known as the likelihood ratio or logical approach, practitioners used to reporting evidence under a more traditional paradigm may have a level of apprehension, and face a steep learning curve. There may be doubts about the benefits of ER, when it applies and when it does not, what it actually entails, its validity, and how to explain it in court. These questions and more are answered in this comprehensive collection of frequently asked questions on ER. While the focus is on providing context for forensic handwriting examiners, many of the questions and answers are general in nature and the concepts can be applied to other disciplines.
