Elias Escaff


Hi classmates!

The person/expert on my field that I admire is Elias Escaff. He is Psychologist of de Universidad de Chile. From 1992 is teacher of the legal Psychology in our university.

He has worked for over 30 years in matters relating to social research, legal psychology and victimology.Professionally, he worked from 1971 to 2003 in the investigative Police of Chile, where he crated the first victimology center of the country, the Center for Assistance to Victims of Sexual Assault (CAVAS), In that role, select and form interdisciplinary teams responsible for the comprehensive care of victims and designs intervention strategies for the treatment of those affected by sexual crimes.


From 2004 to 2007, he was named manager of the Nacional Division for Visctims and Witnesses.

The area of Psychology that I like is ligal Psychology and I think Elias Escaff is the mentor of this area in our country. He observed improper practices within the field of legal proceedings and began the work to change the system and most of the changes have been for his work.

Two weeks ago I had a class with him and he told us about his work and areas of action that legal psychology have and i confirmed my love for this area.

A Hug!
