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.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psicopatología forense. Libro de casos es todo lo que su nombre indica. Ofrece una síntesis rigurosa de eventos adversos que han sufrido las personas cuyos comportamientos les han enfrentado al sistema de justicia. Los casos reales que se incluyen en esta obra han sido elaborados por profesionales que trabajan desde hace 30, 20 años o cuando menos una década en ámbitos clínicos, jurídicos y forenses. Este es un aspecto muy destacado de un trabajo eminentemente práctico, ya que sus autores forman parte del Instituto Nacional de Ciencias Penales (México), la Defensoría General de la Nación (Argentina), el Instituto de Medicina Legal y Ciencias Forenses (de España y Panamá, respectivamente) o la Unidad de Valoración Forense Integral de Violencia de Género (España) y/o han sido autorizados por el Poder Judicial de la Ciudad de México y el Poder Judicial de la Federación para ejercer labores periciales. La obra reúne a expertos y expertas provenientes principalmente de áreas como medicina, psiquiatría, psicología y neuropsicología forense quienes, además, disponen de una envidiable y constante formación académica y reconocimiento de sus pares y sus instituciones. En conjunto, la obra brinda orientación tanto a peritos como a jueces, defensores y fiscales, frente a preguntas tales como ¿Qué lleva a una madre a atentar contra la vida de su propio hijo? ¿Qué decisión tomaron los jueces en casos tan complejos como los que aquí se presentan? ¿Qué tipo de evaluación pericial fue necesaria? ¿Cómo es que la salud mental de una persona puede alterarse de tal manera, que pone en riesgo todo lo que le da sentido a la vida, incluyendo la propia existencia? La obra incluye más de una decena de casos reales, que van desde el TEPT-Complejo hasta los difíciles casos de abuso sexual en la infancia o la violencia contra las mujeres, sin descuidar aquellos donde se requieren evaluaciones del funcionamiento cognitivo para valerse por sí mismo. La extensión es breve, pero muy intensa, ya que los lectores dispondrán de casos muy interesantes e ilustrativos del ejercicio pericial. Los alcances de la obra están dirigidos tanto a quienes ya ejercen en los tribunales de justicia, como para quienes están estudiando y desean dedicarse a estos ámbitos, ya que la obra brinda un planteamiento fruto de la experiencia profesional que se conjuga con el conocimiento y la evidencia científica más actual en contextos tan delicados, complejos y exigentes, como son los periciales y forenses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biosocialities, Genetics and the Social Sciences explores the social, cultural and economic transformations that result from innovations in genomic knowledge and technology. This pioneering collection uses Paul Rabinow’s concept of biosociality to chart the shifts in social relations and ideas about nature, biology and identity brought about by developments in biomedicine. Based on new empirical research, it contains chapters on genomic research into embryonic stem cell therapy, breast cancer, autism, Parkinson’s and IVF treatment, as well as on the expectations and education surrounding genomic research. It covers four main themes: novel modes of identity and identification, such as genetic citizenship the role of institutions, ranging from disease advocacy organizations and voluntary organizations to the state the production of biological knowledge, novel life-forms, and technologies the generation of wealth and commercial interests in biology. Including an afterword by Paul Rabinow and case studies on the UK, US, Canada, Germany, India and Israel, this book is key reading for students and researchers of the new genetics and the social sciences – particularly medical sociologists, medical anthropologists and those involved with science and technology studies.

Download or read book Los Invisibles written by Richard Cleminson and published by University of Wales. This book was released on 2007 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the social, medical and cultural history of male homosexuality in Spain, this book looks at it from the time homosexuality came to be an issue of medical, legal and cultural concern. Research into homosexuality in Spain is in its infancy. The last ten or fifteen years have seen a proliferation of studies on gender in Spain but much of this work has concentrated on women's history, literature and femininity. In contrast to existing research which concentrates on literature and literary figures, "Los Invisibles" focuses on the change in cultural representation of same-sex activity of through medicalisation, social and political anxieties about race and the late emergence of homosexual sub-cultures in the last quarter of the twentieth century. As such, this book constitutes an analysis of discourses and ideas from a social history and medical history position. Much of the research for the book was supported by a grant from the Wellcome Trust to research the medicalisation of homosexuality in Spain.

Download or read book Credibility Assessment written by J.C. Yuille and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Credibility assessment refers to any attempt to ascertain truthfulness. Other terms which have been used to refer to the assessment of credibility include the detection of deception and lie detection. The term lie detection has become virtually synonymous with the use of the polygraph and can no longer be used to refer to the range of procedures currently employed to assess credibility. Also, both lie detection and the detection of deception have a negative cast which does not fully capture the orientation of current approaches to credibility. Consequently, the term credibility assessment has emerged recently as the preferred label. The goal of credibility assessment is typically the determination of the truth of a statement or be found in set of statements. The need or desire to make such an assessment can every human context from marital relations through clinical examinations to police and court interrogations. Examples of the kinds of statements which require credibility assessment are: 1) A child's assertion that she or he has been sexually abused. 2) The claim by a previously suicidal person that he or she has recovered and will not attempt suicide again. 3) The denial of guilt by a suspect in a criminal investigation. 4 ) The confident statement of a witness that he or she is sure in his or her identification of a thief. 5) The vow of loyalty by a potential employee for a security job. It is necessary to assess the credibility of these and similar statements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Workplace bullying, emotional abuse and harassment unfolds as a process, usually recursive and escalating, that involves multiple actors and stakeholders. Through Section 1 of this volume, the antecedents and effects of workplace bullying, emotional abuse and harassment are detailed. Apart from discussing individual and organizational causative factors and adverse outcomes for targets and organizations, this section presents issues pertaining to target coping and survival and power versus powerlessness as dialectic rather than sovereign. Emergent research examining the physiological impact on targets, the controversial interplay of personality and the striving towards well-being is showcased. Section 2 brings together chapters on the various key players in the workplace bullying, emotional abuse and harassment scenario. The focus here is on targets, bullies, bystanders, leaders and significant others as well as the range of interventionists (such as HR managers, therapists, organizational practitioners, unionists and so on) who address situations of misbehaviour. The motives, experiences and outcomes of the former group and the roles, dilemmas and challenges of the latter group are elaborated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The brilliant, controversial, bestselling critique of American culture that “hits with the approximate force and effect of electroshock therapy” (The New York Times)—now featuring a new afterword by Andrew Ferguson in a twenty-fifth anniversary edition. In 1987, eminent political philosopher Allan Bloom published The Closing of the American Mind, an appraisal of contemporary America that “hits with the approximate force and effect of electroshock therapy” (The New York Times) and has not only been vindicated, but has also become more urgent today. In clear, spirited prose, Bloom argues that the social and political crises of contemporary America are part of a larger intellectual crisis: the result of a dangerous narrowing of curiosity and exploration by the university elites. Now, in this twenty-fifth anniversary edition, acclaimed author and journalist Andrew Ferguson contributes a new essay that describes why Bloom’s argument caused such a furor at publication and why our culture so deeply resists its truths today.
