Definition(s)

  • Since the 1970s, some clinical psychologists (often referred to as operational psychologists) have become more actively involved in the resolution of critical incident situations, which are classified as either hostage situations or crisis intervention situations. Police psychologists are valuable contributors to the training of tactical and crisis/hostage negotiators. [Source: Encyclopedia of Psychology and Law; Crisis and Hostage Negotiation]
