5 Criminal thinking Same or different than me? 5
6 WHAT IS THIS? 6
7 WHAT IS THIS? 7
8 Current Theories Rational Choice Contemporary trait Social Structure Criminals are rational actors who weigh the costs and benefits of the actions and determine the rewards for the crime outweighing the punishments if caught. Biological cause of the criminal behavior such as inherited genes, abnormal physiology, and abnormal brain chemistry. Environmental conditions provoke criminal behavior. High unemployment, lack of opportunity, abusive family members, poverty, etc 8
9 Poverty and Crime Did crime/criminals increase during The Great Depression? 9
10 Economic Recession
11 Affluenza June 15, 2013 A Texas teen killed four pedestrians under the influence of alcohol. Lawyer told the judge he suffered from affluenza, parents were so preoccupied with their own issues they set no limits on their son. 11

13 Picture worth a thousand words Compared to the control brain-the bottom brain shows significantly decreased brain activity in the frontal lobe linked to empathy and morality (the anatomical patterns linked to sociopathic behaviors) 13
14 James Fallon high functioning You can also split your content 14 Fallon had a family line of alleged murderers such as Lizzie Borden who was accused of killing her father and stepmother in Not all sociopaths or psychopaths kill but exhibit other sorts of psychopathic behaviors.
15 Making of a Criminal Made or Born? How can we rehabilitate? 15
16 A CriminalCriminals vs. A NonCriminal Criminals know right from wrong. They know legalities more than the common citizen. Criminals promote themselves at the expense of others Criminals are aware of the consequences and occupational hazards. Are at their greatest vulnerability when they are faced with something that they value. (Trigger for violence here) 16
17 Are we all the same when we drink? 17
18 In two or three columns Commonalities 90% of killers in America are male. About 30% of males compared to 9% of females have a form of the MAO-A Gene also known as the warrior gene because of its association with violence. This gene has been found to impair the ability to deal effectively and prosocially with stressful situations. Amygdala which is the seat of emotion has deformities in most criminals minds. 18 Psychopathy is distinctively different from criminality in that, the majority of psychopaths are not criminal, and the majority of criminals are not psychopaths
19 Recidivism and Desistance Recidivism Desistance The tendency for a criminal to reoffend. The process where the person arrives at a permanent state of non offending. 19
20 Desistance Punishment must be applied properly to be effective. Punishment needs to be immediate, inescapable, and sufficiently unpleasant. Harsh forms of punishment do not significantly decrease recidivism rates psychological principles must be applied. 20

22 Use Remember charts to explain your ideas your PSY 201 Crime was committed Why What was the motive? 22 Thinking patterns of the individual
23 How to tell if someone is lying Changing their head position quickly. They repeat words or phrases. Stare at you without blinking much. Their breathing could change. (reflexive deeper breathing- the voice will get shallow) They provide too much information. Difficulty speaking (autonomic nervous system decreases salivary flow in stressful situations) They stand very still (almost catatonic) but only move their feet if they move. They may touch or cover their mouth. Instinctively cover vulnerable body parts 23 Tend to point a lot to turn the tables on what your faults an aggressive gesture.
24 Truth or Tale?? 24
25 Hare Psychopathy Checklist Two parts: a semi-structured interview and the review of the subject s file records and history. Clinician scores 20 items that measure central elements of the psychopathic character. This covers two key aspects that help define the psychopath: selfish and unfeeling victimization and an unstable and antisocial lifestyle. Law and Human Behavior 23, no. 2 April
