THE PERSONALITY PARADOX IN OFFENDER PROFILING A Theoretical Review of the Processes Involved in Deriving Background Characteristics From Crime Scene Actions

TL;DR: In this article, the task of predicting personality characteristics from crime scene actions relies on a model that is nomothetic, deterministic, and nonsituationist, which relies on behavioral consistency across offenses and stable relationships between configurations of offense behaviors and background characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is offender profiling possible? Testing the predicted homology of crime scene actions and background characteristics in a sample of rapists

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that there is no evidence for the assumption of a homology between crime scene actions and background characteristics for the rapists in the sample and argue that the homology assumption is too simplistic to provide a basis for offender profiling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
