UK Profiling: The Statistical or Actuarial Approach
{"Image DocumentName": "UK Profiling: The Statistical or Actuarial Approach", "Image ImageDescription": "One of the objections to the FBI approach raised by Canter(1995) is that after acquiring all this information there doesn t appear to be a great deal of systematic analysis of the data in order to arrive at the profile, it appears to be an art as much as a science and there appears to be heavy reliance on the experience and intuition of the profilers. Canter suggests that when a criminal interacts with his environment and people within that environment, they leave subtle clues. These are not the clues that forensic scientists typically have to deal with, e.g. a strand of hair, traces of bodily fluids, or perhaps even a finger print. The clues a forensic psychologist has to work with are far more subtle than this. They are concerned with the behaviour of the criminal, what do they do to their victims, do the say anything, are they controlled in their behaviour. How does the crime fit in with everyday patterns of behaviour?", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
