Find at least one scholarly reading from a peer-reviewed source not included in the Learning Resources about the topic you have selected that pertains to the role of forensic psychology professional in the criminal system.

Post by Day 3 a 2- to 4-paragraph response to the following:

• Give a 1- to 2-sentence summary of your peer-reviewed source(s).
• Based on the information in your peer-reviewed article, describe some of the roles and responsibilities of the forensic psychology professional in the area that you selected.
• How can knowledge of your chosen topic and the role of the forensic psychology professional be applied to Walden University’s social change mission?
• Support your response with evidence.

Respond by Day 5 to at least one colleague who chose a different topic than yours.

Respond in one or more of the following ways:

• Ask a probing question and provide insight into how one would answer your question and why.
• Ask a probing question and provide the foundation, or rationale, for the question.
• Expand on your colleague’s posting by offering anewperspective or insight.
• Agree with a colleague and offer additional (new) supporting information for consideration.
• Disagree with a colleague by respectfully discussing and supporting a different perspective.
