Alienist
Alienist is an archaic term for a psychiatrist or psychologist . Despite falling out of favor by the middle of the twentieth century, it received renewed attention when used in the title of Caleb Carr 's novel The Alienist (1994), and in the 2018 television series of the same name based on the novel. Although currently not often used in common parlance, the term "alienist" is still employed in psychiatric hospitals to describe those mental health professionals who evaluate defendants to determine their competency to stand trial. However, in this context professionals are more often referred to as forensic psychologists . [ citation needed ]
