Within HD is a trans-disciplinary center for the integration of research and outreach in the social sciences, legal studies, and public policy. Included are scholars from the fields of developmental psychology, social psychology, organizational behavior, cognitive psychology, anthropology, sociology, and law. On this page: What HD is doing in this area HD has scholars conduct research on, "negotiation under stress," child abuse and violence, children's disclosures legal policies, and legal decision making about children (e.g., decisions by judges, juries, prosecutors, defense attorneys, law enforcement officers, child protective services personnel, and parents) and decisions about children's competence to participate in the legal process and children's memory as it affects their participation in the legal process (e.g., as defendants, as plaintiffs, as third-party witnesses). Law schools increasingly want to hire Ph.D.s who work at this interface and, within psychology departments, psychology and law courses are very popular. Courses
