Psychological disorders often play a complex role in criminality, influencing behavior in various ways. For example, individuals with antisocial personality disorder may exhibit a lack of empathy and disregard for societal norms, increasing the likelihood of engaging in criminal behavior such as fraud or violence. Similarly, those with substance use disorders may commit crimes to support their addiction or while under the influence. Additionally, mood disorders like depression or bipolar disorder can impair judgment and impulse control, contributing to impulsive or reckless acts that may lead to criminal charges. Moreover, individuals with psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia may experience delusions or hallucinations that distort reality and lead to behaviors that are perceived as criminal.

Deviant Behavior 6
The document discusses trait theories in criminology, which focus on linking biological and psychological traits to antisocial and criminal behavior. It describes several biosocial and psychological trait theories that attempt to explain criminal behavior, including theories related to biochemistry, neurology, genetics, evolution, psychodynamics, behaviorism, cognition, social learning, mental illness, and personality/intelligence. Trait theorists believe criminal behavior is influenced by both inherent traits and environmental factors interacting together. The document raises questions about the theories and notes limitations in the early research while also highlighting potential strengths of each approach.
Psychopathy
This document discusses psychopathy, including its definition as a personality disorder characterized by antisocial behavior, lack of empathy and remorse, and disinhibited behavior. It provides background on influential figures in conceptualizing psychopathy like Hervey Cleckley and Robert Hare who developed the Psychopathy Checklist (PCL-R). The PCL-R is a 20-item assessment tool used to diagnose psychopathy. Witnessing abuse in childhood may be linked to higher psychopathic traits in adulthood. While psychopaths are often thought of as criminals, some research suggests psychopathic traits could benefit CEOs and business leaders.
PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAIT for reference of students
The document discusses psychological trait theories of crime causation. It describes psychodynamic/psychoanalytic theories proposed by Sigmund Freud which view criminals as dominated by their id and having uncontrollable drives due to issues like an unhappy childhood or weak ego. It discusses how psychological disorders or traits like schizophrenia or psychopathy may relate to criminal behavior and the criminal justice system's response through insanity defenses or treatment versus punishment. Case examples are provided of crimes committed by individuals with diagnosed psychological conditions.

Understanding Persons With Mental Illness Who Are and Are Not
Criminal Justice Involved: A Comparison of Criminal Thinking and
Psychiatric Symptoms
Nicole R. Gross and Robert D. Morgan
Texas Tech University
Research has begun to elucidate that persons with mental illness become involved in the criminal justice
system as a result of criminality and not merely because of their mental illness. This study aims to clarify
the similarities and differences in criminal thinking and psychiatric symptomatology between persons
with mental illness who are and are not criminal justice involved. Male and female (n � 94) participants
admitted to an acute psychiatric facility completed measures to assess criminal thinking (i.e., Psycho-
logical Inventory of Criminal Thinking Styles and Criminal Sentiments Scale–Modified) and psychiatric
symptomatology (Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory–Third Edition). In addition to the inpatient
sample, 94 incarcerated persons with mental illness from a previously conducted study were selected
based on their match with the current sample on several key demographic and psychiatric variables. The
results of this study indicated that hospitalized persons with mental illness with a history of criminal
justice involvement evidenced similar thinking styles to persons with mental illness who were incarcer-
ated. Persons with mental illness without criminal justice inv ...
Nursing Case Study Paranaoid Schizophrenia
The document describes paranoid schizophrenia. Key points include:
- Paranoid schizophrenia is characterized by stable delusions and auditory hallucinations.
- Symptoms include suspiciousness and paranoia. The condition is lifelong but can be managed with treatment.
- The case study involves a 40-year-old male patient who was admitted after stabbing his cousin, experiencing auditory hallucinations and paranoid delusions.
Cognitive Criminal Behavior
Criminals exhibit cognitive distortions and thinking patterns that differ from non-criminals. A study interviewed 255 offenders and identified 52 thinking errors that could be categorized into crime-related, automatic, and criminal thinking patterns. Criminals also tend to have lower levels of moral development according to Kohlberg's stages of moral development and attribute negative behaviors of others to their disposition rather than the situation. Studies have also found a link between lower intelligence as measured by IQ tests and higher rates of criminal behavior, though intelligence is not the only factor that determines if someone will commit a crime.
Mental disorders and Crime.pptx
Welcome to today's presentation on the complex relationship between mental disorders and crime.
We will delve into the intersection of these two topics, exploring the impact of mental disorders on criminal behavior.
13514_Chapter07_PPT.ppt
This chapter discusses several psychosocial theories of criminal behavior:
- Intelligence and personality traits like impulsiveness and empathy are linked to criminality. Low IQ can lead to poor school performance and delinquent peer associations.
- Theories explore how temperament, classical conditioning, and cognitive styles developed from early experiences can increase criminal risk.
- Antisocial personality disorder is examined, distinguishing primary psychopaths from secondary psychopaths influenced by environment.
- Theories are evaluated on their strengths like integrating concepts, and weaknesses like individualism ignoring environment or lack of policy guidance.

How do psychological disorders impact a person’s life?
Psychology is the examination of the conscious and unconscious mind and human behavior. A professional researcher involved in this specialty is called a psychologist. As per the WHO (world health organization), all over 450 million people currently suffer and affect by such conditions, placing mental illness or disorders among the leading causes of ill health and disability worldwide.
A total 8 type psychology disorders describe by professional scientists such as:
Emotional Vampires
They are among us. One in every one hundred individuals could meet the criteria for psychopath. Just think how many might have strong tendencies but don\'t pass the litmus test. It is scary. Learn more and be prepared. Dr. Dorothy McCoy
The Mentally Ill Offender final power point
The document discusses the path of mentally ill offenders through the criminal justice system from arrest to release. It notes that many police officers receive little training in dealing with mentally ill individuals and that arrests can sometimes escalate situations. For those booked into jails and prisons, mental health treatment is often lacking. Over time, deinstitutionalization led to fewer psychiatric hospital beds, resulting in many mentally ill individuals becoming incarcerated instead of treated. The document recommends improving mental health treatment for inmates and increasing diversion programs to help address this issue.
Tamela M. McGhee--PSYC4900--Unit 10 Portfolio Presentation
This document is a capstone presentation summarizing the key points of Tamela McGhee's Bachelor's degree in psychology. The presentation explores several topics through different slides, including the positive impact of spirituality on mental health, the negative effects of video gaming on pro-social behaviors, cultural competency in the professional environment, and approaching ethical dilemmas with critical thinking. By the end of the presentation, the goal is to demonstrate McGhee's psychological knowledge, cultural awareness, critical thinking abilities, and professional values. The presentation contains research summaries and conclusions on how spirituality can benefit those struggling with mental health issues, such as adolescents with alcoholic fathers and incarcerated individuals.
Antisocial Personality Disorder
Antisocial personality disorder is a psychological disorder characterized by dysfunctional and destructive thinking and relating to others. People with this disorder have no regard for others' rights and feelings and manipulate or antagonize others for pleasure or gain, showing no remorse. Symptoms often begin in childhood and become fully evident in the 20s-30s, potentially including cruelty to animals and bullying. Half of male inmates meet criteria for this disorder.
Social Psychology 2_ Law
Kirk Bloodsworth was the first American sentenced to death row who was later exonerated by DNA evidence, despite already having his sentence commuted to life in prison. Several questions are raised about his wrongful conviction based on eyewitness testimony, including whether police procedures influenced eyewitness identifications and whether pretrial publicity prejudiced the jury. Social psychology can provide insights into how the criminal justice system's underlying psychological assumptions about eyewitness memory and behavior may not always be accurate. Variables like lineup administration procedures, witness characteristics, and event characteristics can impact eyewitness accuracy, and research on these system and estimator variables aims to reduce wrongful convictions.
Sharon Stenberg Psicopathy
Psychopathy is a personality disorder characterized by immoral behavior, lack of empathy, egocentricity, and failure to learn from mistakes. It has been recognized for centuries but was first studied scientifically in the 1800s. Robert Hare developed a diagnostic tool called the Psychopathy Checklist that assesses personality traits and past behavior. Psychopaths tend to be manipulative, lack remorse, and engage in criminal activities from a young age. Treatment is difficult as psychopaths see themselves positively and are unlikely to change behaviors. About 1% of the general population is thought to have psychopathy.
Independent report 3000-4000 words
This document provides an abstract, introduction, and methodology section for an academic report on psychopathy. The report analyzes what causes psychopathic behavior and whether it is innate or developed through one's environment. The methodology includes a literature review using sources like books on psychopaths in the workplace and documentaries on serial killers. The introduction discusses how watching the TV show Dexter sparked an interest in psychopathy and outlines the hypothesis that nature and nurture both impact psychopathic tendencies.
Forensic psychology
Forensic psychology is the branch of psychology concerned with applying psychological principles to legal issues. It involves areas like criminal profiling, determining competency to stand trial, assessing insanity defenses, and predicting future violence. Forensic psychologists conduct interviews and psychological assessments to answer legal questions regarding these issues. They may work with law enforcement, courts, or in correctional facilities. The document provides examples of roles for forensic psychologists like evaluating competency to stand trial, assessing criminal responsibility through the insanity defense, considering intoxication or amnesia defenses, and providing evidence for mitigating sentences.
People With A Personality Disorder
The document discusses psychopathy and its characteristics. Psychopathy is a personality disorder characterized by lack of empathy, guilt, or remorse. People with psychopathy tend to be manipulative, insincere, and lack emotion. While psychopathy is associated with criminal behavior, not all psychopaths are criminals and some can be successful professionals through manipulation and deception. The document explores whether psychopathy is useful or harmful for society.
Schizophrenia and Psychotic DisordersIndividuals with psyc.docx
Schizophrenia and Psychotic Disorders
Individuals with psychotic disorders are characterized by irrational, bizarre beliefs (delusions) and perceptual disturbances (hallucinations). Although these disorders have a relatively low prevalence, they account for a large portion of the costs of mental health care. These disorders start in early adulthood, are relatively chronic, and last an entire normal adult lifetime. Many individuals with schizophrenia are severely impaired and often unable to work or care for themselves. Many of the individuals with schizophrenia are homeless and are entangled in the criminal justice system due to the lack of community resources to treat them. Defendants who are successful with the insanity defense typically have a history of suffering from a severe and persistent mental illness, usually schizophrenia.
As a forensic mental health professional, two major reasons that increase your likelihood of interacting with individuals with schizophrenia are criminal behavior and suicide, as individuals with schizophrenia are at increased risk of both. Individuals with schizophrenia are more likely to commit suicide than individuals with any other diagnosis. As a forensic mental health professional, you should learn about the risk factors for suicide and suicide prevention skills.
Refer to the Webliography section to learn more on suicide prevention.
The issue of severe and persistent mental illness poses important ethical and legal questions. For example, is it ethical and legal to force people to take medications? Many of the antipsychotic medications have unpleasant side effects, some of which can be irreversible, such as tardive dyskinesia. Tardive dyskinesia is an extrapyramidal symptom that involves involuntary movements of the face, mouth, tongue, or jaw. This can cause difficulty in speaking and eating for the patient. Other ethical concerns are involuntary hospitalization and the placement of individuals with severe and persistent mental illness among the general prison population.
Psycholegal Issues
As a forensic health professional, it is important for you to understand the psycholegal issues of competency to stand trial and the insanity defense, both of which involve individuals with psychotic disorders (mental illness).
For example, the Supreme Court has ruled that individuals who cannot understand the punishment that they might receive or the reasons for it cannot be executed. Thus, in the United States, a person with severe mental illness cannot be executed if found incompetent to stand trial. There have been cases of mentally ill individuals on death row who have been found incompetent to be executed (not competent to receive the death penalty). In such instances, the role of the state is to return the person to competency in order for the individual to be executed since it can be assumed that the individual was competent at some time. If the person had been found incompetent, he or she would not have g.

the Process of introduction DNA in detail .pdf
DNA analysis is a cornerstone technique in forensic science, used to identify individuals and establish genetic relationships. It involves extracting DNA from biological samples found at crime scenes, such as blood, hair, saliva, or skin cells, and comparing it to known samples, like those from suspects or victims.
Introduction of DNA analysis in Forensic's .pptx
The methods for producing a DNA profile were developed by Alec Jeffreys and his team in 1985. Jefferys discovered that an unknown sample of DNA such as blood, hair, saliva, or semen could be analyzed and a unique DNA pattern/profile could be developed.
DNA analysis was first discovered, a process called Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) was used to analyze

Exploring Criminology and Criminal Behaviour.pdf
Criminology is the scientific study of crime, criminals,and the criminal justice system. It is an interdisciplinaryfield that draws upon knowledge and methodologiesfrom sociology, psychology, law, biology, statistics, andother related disciplines. Criminologists examine variousaspects of crime, including its causes, consequences,prevention, and control.
Three broad models of criminal behaviorsare the following: psychological,sociological and biological models.
The primary goal of criminology is to understand whyindividuals commit crimes and to develop effective strategiesfor crime prevention and reduction. Criminologists study the social, economic, and psychological factors that contributeto criminal behavior.

JAMES WEBB STUDY THE MASSIVE BLACK HOLE SEEDS
The pathway(s) to seeding the massive black holes (MBHs) that exist at the heart of galaxies in the present and distant Universe remains an unsolved problem. Here we categorise, describe and quantitatively discuss the formation pathways of both light and heavy seeds. We emphasise that the most recent computational models suggest that rather than a bimodal-like mass spectrum between light and heavy seeds with light at one end and heavy at the other that instead a continuum exists. Light seeds being more ubiquitous and the heavier seeds becoming less and less abundant due the rarer environmental conditions required for their formation. We therefore examine the different mechanisms that give rise to different seed mass spectrums. We show how and why the mechanisms that produce the heaviest seeds are also among the rarest events in the Universe and are hence extremely unlikely to be the seeds for the vast majority of the MBH population. We quantify, within the limits of the current large uncertainties in the seeding processes, the expected number densities of the seed mass spectrum. We argue that light seeds must be at least 103 to 105 times more numerous than heavy seeds to explain the MBH population as a whole. Based on our current understanding of the seed population this makes heavy seeds (Mseed > 103 M⊙) a significantly more likely pathway given that heavy seeds have an abundance pattern than is close to and likely in excess of 10−4 compared to light seeds. Finally, we examine the current state-of-the-art in numerical calculations and recent observations and plot a path forward for near-future advances in both domains.

It involves extracting DNA from biological samples found at crime scenes, such as blood, hair, saliva, or skin cells, and comparing it to known samples, like those from suspects or victims.
Introduction of DNA analysis in Forensic's .pptx
The methods for producing a DNA profile were developed by Alec Jeffreys and his team in 1985. Jefferys discovered that an unknown sample of DNA such as blood, hair, saliva, or semen could be analyzed and a unique DNA pattern/profile could be developed.
DNA analysis was first discovered, a process called Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) was used to analyze
Introduction of Forensic Arthashastra__.pptx
Forensic archaeology is the application of archaeological techniques and methods to criminal investigations and legal issues. Archeologists assist law enforcement in locating, recovering, and analyzing evidence from crime scenes, mass disasters, and historical sites.
Exploring Criminology and Criminal Behaviour.pdf
Criminology is the scientific study of crime, criminals,and the criminal justice system. It is an interdisciplinaryfield that draws upon knowledge and methodologiesfrom sociology, psychology, law, biology, statistics, andother related disciplines. Criminologists examine variousaspects of crime, including its causes, consequences,prevention, and control.
Three broad models of criminal behaviorsare the following: psychological,sociological and biological models.
The primary goal of criminology is to understand whyindividuals commit crimes and to develop effective strategiesfor crime prevention and reduction. Criminologists study the social, economic, and psychological factors that contributeto criminal behavior.
Blood- group system, & it's Type's .pdf
Blood is made up of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets in a liquid called plasma. Your blood group is identified by antibodies and antigens in the blood.
The ABO blood types were discovered by Karl Landsteiner in 1901; he received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1930 for this discovery.

JAMES WEBB STUDY THE MASSIVE BLACK HOLE SEEDS
The pathway(s) to seeding the massive black holes (MBHs) that exist at the heart of galaxies in the present and distant Universe remains an unsolved problem. Here we categorise, describe and quantitatively discuss the formation pathways of both light and heavy seeds. We emphasise that the most recent computational models suggest that rather than a bimodal-like mass spectrum between light and heavy seeds with light at one end and heavy at the other that instead a continuum exists. Light seeds being more ubiquitous and the heavier seeds becoming less and less abundant due the rarer environmental conditions required for their formation. We therefore examine the different mechanisms that give rise to different seed mass spectrums. We show how and why the mechanisms that produce the heaviest seeds are also among the rarest events in the Universe and are hence extremely unlikely to be the seeds for the vast majority of the MBH population. We quantify, within the limits of the current large uncertainties in the seeding processes, the expected number densities of the seed mass spectrum. We argue that light seeds must be at least 103 to 105 times more numerous than heavy seeds to explain the MBH population as a whole. Based on our current understanding of the seed population this makes heavy seeds (Mseed > 103 M⊙) a significantly more likely pathway given that heavy seeds have an abundance pattern than is close to and likely in excess of 10−4 compared to light seeds. Finally, we examine the current state-of-the-art in numerical calculations and recent observations and plot a path forward for near-future advances in both domains.

The cost of acquiring information by natural selection
This is a short talk that I gave at the Banff International Research Station workshop on Modeling and Theory in Population Biology. The idea is to try to understand how the burden of natural selection relates to the amount of information that selection puts into the genome.
It's based on the first part of this research paper:

Evidence of Jet Activity from the Secondary Black Hole in the OJ 287 Binary S...
Wereport the study of a huge optical intraday flare on 2021 November 12 at 2 a.m. UT in the blazar OJ287. In the binary black hole model, it is associated with an impact of the secondary black hole on the accretion disk of the primary. Our multifrequency observing campaign was set up to search for such a signature of the impact based on a prediction made 8 yr earlier. The first I-band results of the flare have already been reported by Kishore et al. (2024). Here we combine these data with our monitoring in the R-band. There is a big change in the R–I spectral index by 1.0 ±0.1 between the normal background and the flare, suggesting a new component of radiation. The polarization variation during the rise of the flare suggests the same. The limits on the source size place it most reasonably in the jet of the secondary BH. We then ask why we have not seen this phenomenon before. We show that OJ287 was never before observed with sufficient sensitivity on the night when the flare should have happened according to the binary model. We also study the probability that this flare is just an oversized example of intraday variability using the Krakow data set of intense monitoring between 2015 and 2023. We find that the occurrence of a flare of this size and rapidity is unlikely. In machine-readable Tables 1 and 2, we give the full orbit-linked historical light curve of OJ287 as well as the dense monitoring sample of Krakow.

Anti-Universe And Emergent Gravity and the Dark Universe
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best understood in Anti-de Sitter space, where they rely on the area law for entanglement entropy. The extension to de Sitter space requires taking into account the entropy and temperature associated with the cosmological horizon. Using insights from string theory, black hole physics and quantum information theory we argue that the positive dark energy leads to a thermal volume law contribution to the entropy that overtakes the area law precisely at the cosmological horizon. Due to the competition between area and volume law entanglement the microscopic de Sitter states do not thermalise at sub-Hubble scales: they exhibit memory effects in the form of an entropy displacement caused by matter. The emergent laws of gravity contain an additional ‘dark’ gravitational force describing the ‘elastic’ response due to the entropy displacement. We derive an estimate of the strength of this extra force in terms of the baryonic mass, Newton’s constant and the Hubble acceleration scale a0 = cH0, and provide evidence for the fact that this additional ‘dark gravity force’ explains the observed phenomena in galaxies and clusters currently attributed to dark matter.

Psychology- Disorders & Criminality.pptx
- 1. TOPIC – PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDER AND CRIMINALITY Rohan Singrore
- 3. A psychological disorder is an engoing dysfunctional pattern of though, emotion and behavior that causes significant distress and that is considered deviant in that person’s culture or society. According to bio-psycho-social model psychological disorder have biological and social causes.
- 8. Criminality the propensity to become involved in criminal activity and crime, participation in a specific criminal event are normally treated as separate entities. Most criminology theories, in fact can be classified as either theories of criminality or theories of crime
- 10. The term mental disorder is also referred to as mental abnormality. It denotes that the mind is in a state of confusion or is suffering from some disease. Studies have shown that there is no evidence to prove that the crimes committed by criminals were induced by their mental disorder. On the contrary crime statistics showed that quite a large number of criminals were persistent offenders and more than 66% of them has a past criminal record and 44% of them had previously been in prison undergoing sentence.
- 11. Be that as it may, law does take mental illness or insanity into account while determining the criminal liability of the offender. It is also taken into account in sentencing offenders where they are subjected to clinical treatment rather than being sentenced. Insanity has been recognised as a defence in most penal laws. The rules recognising the defence of insanity in criminal law were first laid down in 1843 in the historic 'M’ Naghten’s case .
