Criminal Psychology

What it covers

This course examines the various ways in which psychologists, as well as psychological theories and methods, contribute to the study of crime, criminal behaviour and the processes of criminal justice. We consider several key domains of forensic psychology including: criminal profiling, eyewitness testimony, forensic interviewing, offender risk assessment and case management. The course also examines points of connection and disjuncture between criminology and psychology, through consideration of the relationship between individual-level and society-level explanations of criminal behaviour.
