Abstract

Purpose: This article aims to analyze the psychological criteria and theoretical foundations for assessing social behavior in forensic psychological examinations, emphasizing the integration of cognitive, emotional, and behavioral dimensions within legal contexts. Research Methodology: The study adopts a qualitative and analytical approach by reviewing theoretical frameworks and methodological practices in forensic psychology. Sources include established models of social cognition, emotional regulation, and behavioral learning, combined with applied methods such as structured interviews, psychological testing, and observational analysis. Results: The analysis highlights that a comprehensive evaluation of social behavior requires balancing cognitive interpretation, emotional responsiveness, and observed conduct. Structured methodological approaches improve the reliability and validity of assessments, while contextual factors such as culture and situational dynamics significantly influence interpretation. Conclusions: Forensic psychological examinations must incorporate multidimensional perspectives to avoid reductionist judgments. Recognizing cultural diversity and situational context strengthens the objectivity of social behavior assessments in legal proceedings. Limitations: The paper is conceptual and does not include empirical testing; future studies should apply mixed-methods designs and cross-cultural samples to validate the proposed frameworks. Contribution: This study enriches forensic psychology by offering a holistic framework for evaluating social behavior that integrates psychological theory with practical forensic methodologies. It provides guidance for examiners to ensure more accurate, ethical, and context-sensitive assessments.
