This week we explore the case of Robert Knapper and the role of the psychologist Paul Britton. I would recommend watching this on Youtube if you can. But if not, listen and enjoy!! It is no understatement to call this one of the most defining cases in the history of UK Profiling. 

In this weeks reading we explore Alison et al.,"Pragmatic Solutions to Offender Profiling"  Niche, but a favorite. Its was written in a reflective manner about what we can learn, nd how we can best move forward (post-Stagg). 

In this weeks Q and A I answer three questions from the class: 0:00:50 - What do the letters "A" and "C" stand for in the offender profiling equation? 0:06:42- How do profilers develop their "gut" instincts? 0:13:438- Have I ever given a profile? Thanks for the questions!

In this lecture we explore the mythology, history and methods of offender profiling and what it means for the beginnings of Forensic Psychology.    Enjoy! 

This week we explore Woodhams et al., (2008) who uses Marine Ecology to overcome the issue of behavioral stability (we discuss this in detail in Thursdays lecture!)   Enjoy! 

In this weeks Q and A I answer three questions from the class: (1) What is something that most people do not understand about Forensic Psychology?  (2) What is the best/my favorite topic in the semester?  (3) Do I have any tips for learning virtually and during COVID? 

Welcome to the introduction! A little about the course, a little about me, and a little (possibly a lot) about my philosophy for Forensic Psychology (and Psychology in general). Enjoy
