 Using Social Media Data in Forensic Psychological Evaluations
with Randy K. Otto, PhD, ABPP
Americans’ use of social media has exploded in the past two decades. Adults and children post information referencing themselves on a variety of social media platforms including, but not limited to Snapchat, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Tik Tok. Little commentary, however, has been offered regarding the potential utility and pitfalls of using information posted to these platforms when conducting forensic psychological examinations. Although some professional organizations have developed guidelines for how psychologists should use social media data, all of these documents are focused on psychologists when acting as treatment providers. After reviewing the potential value and limitations of using data gathered from social media data, factors psychologists should consider when contemplating use of these in forensic examination contexts are discussed.
