Book Atlas of Forensic and Criminal Psychology

Download or read book Atlas of Forensic and Criminal Psychology written by Bernat-N. Tiffon and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-04-04 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in Spanish in 2017 by Libreria Bosch, Barcelona, the Atlas of Forensic and Criminal Psychology is a one-of-kind book made available in English for the first time. This unique work is highly illustrated with full-color images, providing a medico-legal examination of forensic pathology as it relates to cases of forensic psychological interest. The book begins with a historical perspective and includes images of patients to familiarize the reader with symptoms, the hazard-risk criteria, lethality, and suicidal rescue—research that Dr. Tiffon has addressed in his previous publications. Chapters present photographic records of cases to deepen forensic, psychologist, and medico-legal professionals’ insight into thoughts, behaviors, and mechanisms of self- and hetero-aggressiveness. Such cases illustrate the outcomes of various disorders manifested in individuals and victims; as such, they provide an understanding of the psychological-legal conclusions reached in such cases in order to adapt the legal and preventative measures for specific situations. Coverage includes affective, schizophrenic, and personality disorders as contributing elements in diagnostic judgments, noting the great difficulty such examples present to experts performing psychopathological evaluations after criminal, and often violent, events have occurred. Various psychopathological disorders are addressed as well as the technical treatment that should occur in each case from a psychological-forensic perspective. Features: • Presents a provocative look at various syndromes familiar to forensic psychologists, as applied to criminal cases and the pathology of suicide victims and homicide perpetrators • Combines the work of world-renowned expert contributors to examine the criminal, legal, and psychological facets of various diagnoses and case examples • Offers insight into the psychological state of suicide victims, considering their state of mind as a "psychological autopsy" In his previous books published in Spanish, Manual of Consulting in Psychology and Clinical, Legal, Legal, Criminal, and Forensic Psychopathology (2008), Manual of Professional Performance in Clinical, Criminal, and Forensic Psychopathology (2009), and the 4-volume Practical Criminological Atlas of Forensic Psychometry (2019-2020), Tiffon approached forensic psychology and psychopathology from a theoretical perspective. In the Atlas of Forensic and Criminal Psychology, his first book translated into English, Tiffon expands on these prior works, serving to provide a visual reference and guide to medical pathologists and consulting psychologists in cases of disorders in which psychopathological mutilation, injury, and self-injury occur.

Book Psychological Knowledge and Practices in Brazilian Colonial Culture

Download or read book Psychological Knowledge and Practices in Brazilian Colonial Culture written by Marina Massimi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-22 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the complexities of the colonization of the territory that is now Brazil and its shaping of psychological knowledge and practice. It reveals the rich network of cultural practices that were formed through the appropriation of elements of Jesuit Catholicism and the blending with elements of the cultures of native, African and Lusitanian populations present in the territory, and how psychological concepts and practices emerged and circulated between the sixteenth and the late eighteenth centuries, long before the establishment of psychology as a modern science. The volume summarizes the research program developed by the author over 38 years of academic activity through which she contributed to expand the field of historical studies in psychology by investigating how psychological concepts and practices were produced in cultural and historical contexts different from the European and North American societies where scientific psychology developed in the 19th and 20th centuries. Psychological Knowledge and Practices in Brazilian Colonial Culture will be of interest not only to historians of psychology, but also to professional psychologists working with culturally diverse populations who seek to understand how psychological concepts and phenomena are shaped by culture. By doing so, the book intends to contribute to the development of a psychology better prepared to deal with cultural diversity in an increasingly multicultural world. “Massimi’s book will now form an important foundation of English-language scholarship about the psychological and cultural impact of colonization on subjugated peoples. She has, of course, made many such contributions in Portuguese. It is to be hoped that much of her work will be translated into English so that more scholars may benefit from the richness of her insights.” – Excerpt from the Foreword by Dr. Wade E. Pickren.

Book Atlas forense gr  fico psicom  trico  perspectivas de la psicopatolog  a criminal y forense

Download or read book Atlas forense gr fico psicom trico perspectivas de la psicopatolog a criminal y forense written by Bernat-N. Tiffon and published by Siglo del Hombre Editores. This book was released on 2022-01-26 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En el año 2017, el Dr. Bernat-N. Tiffon publicó en la Editorial J.M. Bosch, su “Atlas de Psicología Forense (Penal)”. Dicha obra gráfico-visual supuso un hito, cuasi transgresor, en el campo de la Psicología Forense y Criminal al relacionar las consecuencias conductuales y victimológicas de los comportamientos agresivos y/o hostiles de los victimarios. Tal fue el alcance de esta obra que, en la actualidad, se está en espera de la inminente publicación de su versión inglesa para el mercado anglosajón. Después de este Atlas y de la “faraónica” obra completa en cuatro volúmenes sobre la Psicometría Forense (Editorial J.M. Bosch, 2019-2020), el Dr. Tiffon trabaja conjuntamente con el Dr. Jorge González Fernández realizando una nueva e innovadora obra que presenta una especial singularidad: nuevos casos criminológicos con ilustraciones fotográficas y visuales de la escena del crimen y de autopsias, y gráficas psicométricas para el análisis del perfil psicológico y/o psicopatológico del victimario. En esta ocasión, la simbiosis académico-profesional Médico-Psicológica (y Psicopatológica)representada por los autoresprocura un avance científico-investigador en la explicación delictual de las consecuencias conductuales de naturaleza criminológica o psicopatológica. Sin duda, la presente obra no dejará indiferente al lector de las disciplinas del Derecho, de la Medicina Forense, de la Psicología Criminal y Forense y de la Criminología. Como siempre, y desde la línea del estilo artístico-creativa y de innovación científico-investigadora del alma mater y autor principal de la obra (Dr. Bernat-N. Tiffon), nos encontramos nuevamente ante su mirada provocativa que originará en el lector procesos de reflexión sobre los distintos casos que se exponen en el cuerpo de este Atlas Forense Gráfico-Psicométrico: Perspectivas de la Psicopatología Criminal y Forense.

Book Parental Alienation  DSM 5  and ICD 11

Download or read book Parental Alienation DSM 5 and ICD 11 written by William Bernet and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2010 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parental alienation is an important phenomenon that mental health professionals should know about and thoroughly understand, especially those who work with children, adolescents, divorced adults, and adults whose parents divorced when they were children. In this book, the authors define parental alienation as a mental condition in which a child - usually one whose parents are engaged in a high- conflict divorce - allies himself or herself strongly with one parent (the preferred parent) and rejects a relationship with the other parent (the alienated parent) without legitimate justification. This process leads to a tragic outcome when the child and the alienated parent, who previously had a loving and mutually satisfying relationship, lose the nurture and joy of that relationship for many years and perhaps for their lifetimes. We estimate that 1 percent of children and adolescents in the U.S. experience parental alienation. When the phenomenon is properly recognized, this condition is preventable and treatable in many instances. The authors of this book believe that parental alienation is not simply a minor aberration in the life of a family, but a serious mental condition. Because of the false belief that the alienated parent is a dangerous or unworthy person, the child loses one of the most important relationships in his or her life. This book contains much information about the validity, reliability, and prevalence of parental alienation. It also includes a comprehensive international bibliography regarding parental alienation with more than 600 citations. In order to bring life to the definitions and the technical writing, several short clinical vignettes have been included. These vignettes are based on actual families and real events, but have been modified to protect the privacy of both the parents and children.

Book Strategic Communication in Context  Theoretical Debates and Applied Research

Download or read book Strategic Communication in Context Theoretical Debates and Applied Research written by Sara Balonas and published by UMinho Editora/CECS. This book was released on 2021-07-30 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strategic communication is becoming more relevant in communication sciences, though it needs to deepen its reflective practices, especially considering its potential in a VUCA world — volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous. The capillary, holistic and result-oriented nature that portrays this scientific field has led to the imperative of expanding knowledge about the different approaches, methodologies and impacts in all kinds of organisations when strategic communication is applied. Therefore Strategic Communication in Context: Theoretical Debates and Applied Research assembles several studies and essays by renowned authors who explore the topic from different angles, thus testing the elasticity of the concept. Moreover, this group of authors represents various schools of thought and geographies, making this book particularly rich and cross-disciplinary.
