The Impact of Gruesome Photographs on Forensic Judgments of Competency and Legal Insanity

January 2018 (has links)
abstract: The legal system relies heavily on the contribution of forensic psychologists. These psychologists give opinions on a defendant’s ability to stand trial, their legal sanity at the time of the crime, their future dangerousness, and their competency to be executed. However, we know little about what extrinsic factors bias these experts. I assessed the influence of gruesome photographs on forensic psychologists’ evaluations of competency and legal sanity. Previous research has demonstrated that these photographs influence lay judgments of guilt. I predicted that gruesome color photographs (versus the same photographs in black-and-white or a textual description of the photographs) would influence forensic psychologists to judge the defendant competent and sane (decisions that might ultimately lead to punishment). I also predicted that this effect would be greater for sanity judgments than for competency judgments. I asked laypeople to make the same decisions in order to compare expert and lay judgments. I predicted that impact of photograph type seen in experts would be greater in the lay sample. No differences in judgments of competence, sanity, or mental illness emerged as a function of the type of visual information, for either expert or lay participants. Experts relied on competency evidence to make competency judgments and insanity evidence to make insanity judgments. In contrast, lay people relied on various types of evidence to make their ultimate judgments. This research suggests that people making competency and sanity judgments might not be biased by gruesome photographs. / Dissertation/Thesis / Masters Thesis Psychology 2018

A prototype fact sheet designed for the development of a forensic computerized information system at Valkenberg and Lentegeur Hospitals

Hansson, Desiree Shaun January 1987 (has links)
Includes bibliography. / The discussion in this paper centers around the development of a paper-and-pencil fact sheet for collecting and systematizing forensic case material. This paper-and-pencil device is the prototype fact sheet that will be used to collect the data to form a computerized, forensic information system. The system, known as FOCIS, the Forensic Computerized Information System, will serve the largest Forensic Unit in the Western Cape, at Valkenberg Hospital, and the new unit that is being developed at Lentegeur Hospital. FOCIS will comprise case material from all forensic referrals to these two hospitals, under the present law: Sections 77, 78 and 79 of the Criminal Procedure Act 51 of the 1st of July 1977. Additionally, FOCIS will develop dynamically, continuing to incorporate case material as referrals are made to these hospitals. The estimated 7500 cases that will constitute FOCIS by the time this project is completed, include all of the officially classified population groups of South Africa, i.e. the so-called 'black', 'coloured' and 'white' groups [POPULATION REGISTRATION ACT, 1982]. The prototype fact sheet has a schematic layout and uses a mixed-format for data collection, i.e. checklists, multiple choice answer-options and semi-structured narrative text.

Infração, infrator e a responsabilização: o judiciário sob a óptica da psicanálise / Infraction, Infractor and Accountability: the Judiciary under the Psychoanalysis Optic

Whitaker, Christiane 27 August 2007 (has links)
A infração, o infrator e suas relações são os temas centrais de investigação desta tese, particularizados a partir do judiciário, seus trâmites e funções operacionais, sob enfoque da Psicanálise. A responsabilização é o veio que mantém as discussões numa univocidade necessária à edificação dos argumentos aqui depositados. A perspectiva do enfrentamento da questão, o liame infração e infrator, se estabelece sobre as bases do campo subjetivo, tomado como soberano e determinante. O Sujeito no sentido psicanalítico do termo, enquanto sujeito do desejo, do inconsciente, se faz absolutamente responsável por seus atos. É na relação com o Outro social que a participação do jovem e sua inserção no circuito infracional passa a ser entendida. O trabalho se divide em duas grandes partes: institucional e clínica A primeira grande questão que esta tese traz à luz é referida a um fenômeno dúbio e de difícil discernimento, uma vez que entranhado no campo institucional. Aqui adquiriu o estatuto de (des)patologização. Esse fenômeno em seu sentido positivado é conexo com a patologização. Trata-se de um acontecimento movido pela engrenagem do judiciário que objetivando particularizar os jovens, demanda do saber especializado PSI - um discurso não só analítico (de análise) do contexto psicológico, mas também preditivo (inclui-se aí periculosidade e afins), e que acabou por alavancar uma ordenação compulsiva de realizações infindáveis de laudos e perícias psicológicas e psiquiátricas. Aqui reside a ambigüidade: na tentativa de despatologizar, patologizase. Essa constatação subsidia a introdução da questão da sobreposição dos critérios médicos e psicológicos aos da justiça. Por outro lado, a despeito das inserções dos jovens na via criminal, a escuta clínica permitiu entrever uma real distância da Perversão, enquanto estrutura clínica da teoria psicanalítica, para uma maioria. E, partindo daí, em direção à especificidade da Psicanálise desenvolve-se a discussão sobre a responsabilização e subjetividade. Além de se estabelecer a passagem dos móbeis sociais para a causa subjetiva, enfrenta-se a questão da adolescência e sua relação com a responsabilização que é co-extensiva ao debate de inimputabilidade e imputabilidade, desenvolvidas ao final do trabalho. A parte clínica introduz a questão da inserção dos jovens à cultura infracional. Trata-se de um ideal a ser atingido, enquanto inscrição lógica de reconhecimento simbólico, a partir de uma posição fálica garantida pela insígnia do ser do mundo do crime. Em contigüidade a essa posição articula-se aquilo que nomeamos de fraturas constituídas nos processos de subjetivação que os remetem para além dos ideais familiares, como forma de responder aos vácuos aí constituídos, em que o estado de anomia e tomadas de risco de vida são efeitos. O trabalho se encaminha a uma discussão final, bastante particularizada pela Psicanálise, que incide sobre um ponto crucial: a responsabilização. Esse conceito que admite acepções no Direito e na Psicanálise, é aqui elevado a conseqüências radicais, naquilo que diz respeito a uma possível interlocução entre essas duas disciplinas. Assim o enlace, infração e infrator, é enfrentado a partir das noções de ato, culpa, responsabilização e sanção, numa articulação às discussões desenvolvidas anteriormente, sejam elas institucionais ou clínica / The infraction, the infractor and their relations are themes central to this work, distinct from the judiciary, its proceedings and operational functions, and under the Psychoanalysis perspective. Accountability is the vein that keeps the debates unequivocal, a necessary condition for the construction of the arguments presented here. The possibility of confronting the issue, the link between infraction and infractor, is found at the base of subjectivity, viewed as sovereign and determinant. The Subject, according to the psychoanalytic meaning of the term as the subject that desires, the unconscious, is fully responsible for its actions. It is when he relates with \"Another\" social being that the young adults insertion and participation in the infraction circuit can be understood. The work is split in two large sections: institutional and clinical. The first important issue that this thesis uncovers is related to a dubious phenomenon of difficult discernment, once deeply rooted in the institutional arena. Here it reached the (non)pathology status. This phenomenon in its positive aspect is connected to pathology. It has to do with an event issuing from the judiciary that in targeting young adults requires from experts - PSI - a discourse of the psychological context, not only analytical but also predictive in its nature (including perilous, and similar others), that ends up by triggering a compulsive ordering of endless psychiatric and psychological tests, exams and reports. Here resides the ambiguity: in attempting to eliminate pathology, one is created. This observation gives credibility to the introduction to the question of medical and psychological criteria overlapping the judiciarys. On the other hand, in spite of young adults entering the path of crime, clinical diagnosis as structured by psychoanalytical theory has caught a glimpse at the distance that exists to Perversion in the majority of cases. From this point onwards within the specific field of Psychoanalysis evolves the debate about accountability and subjectivity. Aside from establishing the change of social mobiles to the subjective cause, one is faced with the question of adolescence and its relation with accountability which is a continuation of the debate about unaccountability and accountability developed at the end of this work. The clinical section introduces the question of young adults joining the culture of infraction. It is a question of an ideal to be reached, as a logic record of symbolic recognition, from a phallic position guaranteed by the banner belonging to the world of crime. Concurrently, a proposition is enunciated called fractures formed in the subjectivity processes that send them beyond family ideals, as a way to respond to vacuums created there, in which the state of anomy and life threatening risks are taken. Drawing substantially from Psychoanalysis, the work proceeds to its final debate focusing on a crucial point: accountability. This concept, that accepts meanings from the fields of Law and Psychoanalysis, is raised here to a position of radical consequences in what it says about a possible dialogue between these two disciplines. Thus, the link between infraction and infractor is approached from the perspective of the notions of act, guilt, accountability, and sanction, within the framework of the previous debates, whether it be institutional or clinical
