They also found that childhood sexual abuse was the most common trauma that lead to PTSD symptoms. These findings are in line with previous research on this topic or similar topics to this one. Although childhood sexual assault was the common, the authors noted that being stalked and being threatened produces the most severe symptoms of PTSD in the regression equation. Another finding that was consistent with previous research is that sudden death of a loved one was a traumatic even experienced more frequently by the participants. Even though this was a very diverse group in terms of ethnicity, it still found that men experienced robbery and stranger assault more frequently than women. These findings are also consistent with other research. The authors expressed that because the diagnoses were not based on research-based diagnoses but from clinical charts it may not be as reliable. They also noted that there may be some groups that were not represented in the study, such as those living with SMI in the inner

Over the weekend I was working in Evolv on a client Biopsychosocial Assessment , and I accidentally used Biopsychosocial Assessment RTF.

Can you please assist me with deleting the incorrect assessment.

Bill McClary, male, is twenty-five years old. He is unemployed, single, and has been living with his sister, Colleen, for eighteen months. She has noticed he had been acting peculiar as well as isolating himself from others. He spent most of his time daydreaming, talking to himself, and saying things that did not make any sense. His sister forced him into psychological treatment, because he had not been able to fit in with her family and was also worried about his affect on her three children. Growing up Bill was the youngest of four children. He grew up in New York City with his mother and father. Most of his family lived in Ireland. His father was a firefighter, and came across as harsh and distant to Bill. He was very close to his mother

In 2004 Paul Haggis directed the film Crash, a movie fundamentally about the effects of prejudice and bias on a group of Los Angeles natives including cops, robbers, and immigrants whose lives “crash” into one another’s. With the help of strong acting and an amazing storyline Crash won three Academy Awards and did it while carrying a message not so easily identified. The characters Anthony (Ludacris) Peter (Larenz Tate) Officer Ryan (Matt Dillon) and their depictions of explicit bias are so well done that the impact of implicit bias in the screenplay is almost missed.

I believe Jeremy Bamber fits the Dangerously Antisocial parricide offender type. In Table 8-3, there are three required characteristics of this offender type: Killed to serve a selfish purpose, Intentional killing, and history of defiant behavior. Bamber demonstrated all three characteristics; he intentionally killed his family selfishly for the inheritance he would receive and prior to the killing, Bamber went on a rampage of behaving odd and in a way that he knew his parents wouldn't appreciate. There is another characteristics that Bamber displayed after the killing; he went on a buying spree. After the death of his family, he was partying nonstop until the money dwindled away.

Several serial killers have a definitive and common personality profile. Almost every major social, biological, psychological behavioural influence that has been seriously suggested as playing a role in causing crime has been thoroughly thought as potentially

Simon Birch and his extraordinary experiences clearly represent the five dimensions of a person’s personality, S.P.I.E.S. Through his positive and negative thoughts, experiences and memories, Simon conveys the five dimensions of a personality: social, physical, intellectual, emotional and spiritual in a different way than most.

As discussed and studied there are many who now have a hard time believing there psych disorders exists. Understandably so, because we find that it can become repetitive once a criminal has scene that there may be a way out of their consequence. Mr. Kenneth Bianchi is known as the Hillside Strangler and also a man who brought more skepticism to psych defenses in crime. This is a man who was caught and convicted for 15 rapes and murders. In his younger years you could say he has slightly a tragic story. His biological mother was a drunk but “was adopted at birth and had a love-hate relationship with women even as a young child.” (Bio, 2017)

The movie “Crash”, by Director and Writer Paul Haggis, follows 8 ethnically diverse families/ individuals facing the struggle of modern day racism and stereotypes created and faced in modern Los Angeles, California. These individuals take the roles of individuals living their daily lives within Los Angeles, California while facing stereotypes. The cast portrays: 2 caucasian white male police officers, an African American director and his wife, a white district attorney and his wife, a Persian immigrant family, and a Hispanic father whose occupation is a locksmith. The scene chosen from this film involves the police officers (Officer Ryan and Officer Hanson) pulling over the African American Director (Cameron Thayer) and his wife (Christine Thayer) at a traffic stop. This scene establishes two different types of theoretic sociological concepts of Thomas Theorem and cognitive dissonance.

Mercer was a reserved man, and gun fanatic, in reality he was mentally ill and easily able to purchase guns and other weapons. After two years of moving north of his hometown in Torrance, California to Oregon. Christopher Harper Mercer was known as the neighborhood's outcast. Guns fascinated him, and he collected all sorts of rifles and handguns. He and his mother were both huge fanatics of guns. They bonded regularly as they went to shooting ranges together. Chris was eager to move to Oregon because it would include a fresh start for him. It has been discovered that Chris had an animus towards Christians. He was very bitter because he didn't have a girlfriend. This only resulted with him creating a dating profile. Chris was at very low state of mind. While he was enrolled in his Community’s college Umpqua he decided to shoot nine of his classmates from his writing class. Chris developed a hate towards a lot of things including organized religion. Before shooting his nine classmates Chris asked them what religion they belonged to. The lives he took away were young christians who were aspiring to stand out in this black and white world. Sure enough Chris was mentally ill suffering from Asperger's syndrome. Everyone hopes to stand out but Christopher Harper Mercer stood out in a frightening way. According to the New York times, Christopher's mother knew all along that he was suffering with mental issues. He was a graduate from Switzer Learning Center a school for students with learning disabilities, emotional issues and other special-education needs. (Healy) (Lovett). This proves that it was very easy for Chris to gain access to guns such as the six guns he brought to class and the other seven that he had collected at home because of the weak gun

He was a successful business man with a picture perfect family. He was announced “Man of the Year” and one just looking at him would never believe he was a man out to kill. Earl Brooks considered his desire to kill as an addiction. He didn’t necessarily know why he had this addiction and in turn he did not know how to fight against it. He tried going to AA meetings, he had his “cooling off” period for two years, but yet he still had his need for blood. When he learned that his daughter committed a murder he questioned if this addiction was genetic. We may never know the truth behind this scenario, however natural genetics and psychopathy traits can lead one to believe it is possible.

Despite being well educated and portraying an All-American image, serial killers have a psychotic side to them. Hannibal Lecter showed this side of him when he killed two prison guards. Not only did he murder them but he ate some of their body parts and even carved out the face of one of them to use as a way of disguising himself when he escaped from prison. Earl Brooks murdered in such a cold hearted way. Evidence of this is
