For your Final Project, you will select <\/span>three <\/span><\/strong>case studies from the Final Project Case Studies document located in this week\u2019s Learning Resources. Each case study exemplifies a different type of offender (e.g., juvenile offender, sex offender, violent offender, family violence offender, white-collar criminal).<\/p>\n

For each case, you will take on the role of a forensic psychology professional who has been asked to conduct a case analysis of criminal behavior for a trial defense team. You have been asked to focus on the type of crime, relevant criminological theory, the offender\u2019s behavior, and factors that may have led to the behavior. Your case analysis will leverage the defense in court.<\/p>\n

Note:<\/strong> <\/span>Your Week 2 and 4 Assignments and your Week 3 Discussion may inform your Final Project.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

*Assignment<\/strong><\/p>\n

For each of the three cases you selected, complete the following:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Describe key aspects of the case.<\/li>\n
  2. Evaluate whether developmental risk factors and correlates of criminal behavior influence criminal behavior. Explain your rationale. (Apply learning from the Week 2 Assignment.)<\/li>\n
  3. Evaluate if the crime(s) presented should be categorized as expressive or instrumental. Explain your rationale. (Apply learning from the Week 3 Discussion.)<\/li>\n
  4. Evaluate whether the offender is a criminal. Explain your rationale.<\/li>\n
  5. Apply a specific theoretical approach to the criminal behaviors displayed. (Apply learning from the Week 4 Assignment.)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Note:<\/strong> <\/span>While assessment is an important part of the work that forensic psychology professionals complete, be aware that you will not be conducting forensic assessments of the offenders in the case studies you select for the Final Project.<\/p>\n

    Present your Final Project in one of the following ways:<\/p>\n

    Option 1: Written Paper<\/strong>
