Dr. Ellsworth Fersch

Would consider serving as:
Thesis Reader

Research Interests:
Psychology and law (forensic psychology and psychiatry; use, misuse, and nonuse of psychology in court); insanity (abnormal psychology, legal standards, and the insanity defense); stigma (mental illess, stigma and the insanity defense)
I am also willing to meet with students to discuss their general interest in the overall topic of psychology and law, or in possible future study/work in it.
