Week 12 Reading

Tuesday Apr 13, 2021
In this video we actually look at one of my readings!
I study the personality correlates of police decision-making which is critical if we are going to start understanding, predicting, and potentially changing the types of decisions that are made when police officers face challenging situations on duty.
I hope you enjoy my work!

Week 12 lecture
Tuesday Apr 13, 2021
Tuesday Apr 13, 2021
As we speak, the United States is suffering another round of riots in response to the police shooting of Daunte Wright.
How do we, as forensic psychologists, understand the process of high-stakes decision-making and how can we know the degree to which someone is culpable?
This is not an easy topic but it is one we MUST explore. In this weeks lecture we look to a case from the military to begin our understanding of the immense complexities of diagnosing decision-making.

In this weeks reading we explore Stott et al., (2008) who studies football hooligans. In this study he seeks to understand why the 200 Euros involved so much football violence, but the 2004 Euros were viewed as a great success! Its interesting theoretically and methodologically!

Week 10 Lecture
Tuesday Mar 30, 2021
Tuesday Mar 30, 2021
In this weeks lecture we explore the relationship between the brain and behavior.
We specifically focus on the case of "non-offending paedophiles" and the role that the brain plays.
The bulk of the lecture is a lecture by James Cantor who has tracked the neural underpinnings of deviant sexual interest all the way back to events that occur in the womb.
What does this mean for the "big questions"? Who is to blame? Can we treat it? Can we prevent it?
Enjoy! It is no understatement that this is the most challenging question facing forensic psychology right now.
