PSY 766 Personality Profiles of the Homicidal Offender
The goal of this course is to acquaint the student with the varying personality profiles, levels of motivation and prognoses of the homicidal offender. Homicide will be studied, not as a unitary event, but as a complex behavior with differing phenomenology, psychopathology and dynamics. In addition to the study of typologies, theories and research, a major focus throughout will be on criminal profiling through presentation of case material and applying case findings to further the understanding of murder.
