Abstract
As the official journal of the American Psychology-Law Society (Division 41 of the American Psychological Association), Law and Human Behavior occupies a prominent position in the psychology-law field. It is a privilege to introduce this special section celebrating the journal's 50th anniversary. A review of the types of articles published in Law and Human Behavior over the past 5 decades reveals that the journal has continued to evolve to reflect the most important developments in the field in an effort to serve as a valuable resource for researchers, clinicians, legal professionals, and policymakers. The evolution of Law and Human Behavior is likely attributable, at least in part, to recent advances in forensic research and clinical-forensic practice, the increasingly complex legal landscape relevant to the psychology-law field, and growing recognition of the value of high-quality empirical research.
