Forensic Psychology is a challenging subject. From anti-social behavior and sexual violence to acts of terrorism, well ask you to consider material relating to a range of different kinds of offenders and their offenses. For example, youve been provided with a case study of a violent offender. What assessment tools would you use to evaluate the case in light of the concept of psychopathy? Identify the interventions youd recommend to treat this offender and explain your recommendation. Youll need to have the maturity and sensitivity to tackle these kinds of topics during your degree. Youll also consider the impact on victims and the kinds of support they may need to help them contribute as witnesses in the criminal justice system. While sometimes distressing, youll need to approach these topics with a thoughtful and professional mindset.
