Verlag: Taylor & Francis Inc
Descriptions of how each personality style views him or herself and the world, and how these views lead to problematic behavior
Ways to indirectly assess a subject through interviews with associated others, and through review of records
Behaviors you are likely to encounter during the interview, and responses those behaviors may provoke in you
Clues garnered from nonverbal behavior, including eye contact, facial expressions, and posture
What type of questions to ask, and how to ask them
Finally, each chapter applies all of this information to an actual interview based on the opening vignette. This book is not for diagnosing personality disorders, but rather exists to help forensic interviewers understand the core traits that influence people’s responsiveness. This personality-focused approach is helpful for professionals in a variety of areas including police, attorneys, parole officers, mental health workers, and others who interview witnesses, suspects, and offenders throughout the criminal justice system.
Zielgruppe
Law enforcement officers, attorneys, probation and parole officers, mental health workers, and anyone else who interviews witnesses, suspects, and offenders throughout the legal system.
