PSY-5112 v1: Theories of Criminal Behavior – Analyze Crime and Criminal Behavior

 

Purpose 

For this lesson, you will present your final project, an application of the theories and research you have studied throughout the course to a specific type of criminal behavior. This is a project that you have been building gradually throughout the course and through which you can demonstrate your understanding of criminal behavior.

You will revisit topics such as the developmental, neurobiological, and learned origins of criminal behavior. You will focus on a specific manifestation of criminal behavior and suggest ways to prevent such behavior or to rehabilitate those who have exhibited it. Good luck!

This is the final lesson. These are your final project instructions. 

Review the introduction and the assignment instructions. Once you have completed that, move to the assignment designation and upload through the appropriate area in the courseroom.

The final project is an opportunity for you to pull together the concepts and topics that you have learned through this course and apply what you have learned.
