Aggression01:47

Aggression

28.1K
Humans engage in aggression when they seek to cause harm or pain to another person. Aggression takes two forms depending on one’s motives: hostile or instrumental. Hostile aggression is motivated by feelings of anger with intent to cause pain; a fight in a bar with a stranger is an example of hostile aggression. In contrast, instrumental aggression is motivated by achieving a goal and does not necessarily involve intent to cause pain (Berkowitz, 1993); a contract killer who murders for...

Interpersonal Psychotherapy

101
Interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) is a structured, time-limited therapeutic approach initially developed to treat depression. It integrates key concepts from psychodynamic, humanistic, and cognitive-behavioral therapies, making it a uniquely eclectic framework. The therapy is rooted in the interpersonal theories of Adolph Meyer and Harry Stack Sullivan, as well as John Bowlby's attachment theory, and focuses on the interplay between interpersonal relationships and emotional well-being.

Attribution Theory

13.4K
Behavior is a product of both the situation (e.g., cultural influences, social roles, and the presence of bystanders) and of the person (e.g., personality characteristics). Subfields of psychology tend to focus on one influence or behavior over others. Situationism is the view that our behavior and actions are determined by our immediate environment and surroundings. In contrast, dispositionism holds that our behavior is determined by internal factors (Heider, 1958).

Area of Science:

  • Criminology
  • Forensic Psychology
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Offenders involved in intimate partner violence (IPV) may exhibit a broader pattern of criminal behavior.
  • Understanding the diversity of offending patterns is crucial for effective intervention and prevention strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and characterize distinct typologies of male and female offenders using a person-centered approach.
  • To analyze the diversity of offending behaviors within and outside intimate relationships.
  • To explore variations in offender typologies based on sex and time period of offending.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a police dataset of 1,189 male and female offenders with solved offenses from 2009-2019.
  • Employed hierarchical cluster analysis and K-means clustering to identify offender typologies.
  • Conducted a person-centered analysis to examine diversity in offending patterns.

Main Results:

  • Established six distinct typologies for male offenders (e.g., 'low-level offenders,' 'escalating intimate partner violence offenders,' 'anti-social offenders') and four for female offenders (e.g., 'low-level female offender,' 'prolific violent and anti-social female offender').
  • Found significant variations in typologies across several variables between male and female offenders.
  • Identified similarities and differences in typologies based on gender and the time period of offending (pre-2013, 2013, post-2013).

Conclusions:

  • Police administrative data can effectively differentiate offending patterns based on sex and offense types.
  • Recognizing diverse offender typologies allows for more tailored and effective law enforcement and judicial responses.
  • Further research can refine these typologies and their implications for criminal justice practices.
