    El presente estudio descriptivo muestra la valoración que los psicólogos forenses españoles (N = 64), otorgan a los criterios propuestos en la literatura científica para valorar casos de solicitud de traslado de menores tras la ruptura de los progenitores. Los resultados muestran que los profesionales otorgaron una alta importancia a los criterios de evaluación propuestos, situándose en posiciones inferiores criterios relacionados con aspectos de infraestructura y organización familiar, económicos y culturales. Respecto al asesoramiento técnico sobre la conveniencia o inconveniencia del traslado, se aprecia que en pocas ocasiones los profesionales informan de forma favorable al cambio de residencia, mostrando una inclinación por el mantenimiento del statu quo.

    This descriptive study analyzes Spanish forensic psychologists’ (N = 64) rating of criteria proposed in the scientific literature to assess relocation cases after parents’ separation. Our results showed that forensic psychologists gave a high importance to evaluation criteria suggested, giving a lower ranking to criteria related to infrastructural, economic, and cultural aspects. Regarding the technical advice on the convenience or inconvenience of the relocation, it is observed that professionals reported favorably to the change of residence only in few occasions, showing a trend to maintain the statu quo.
