Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the conceptualization of psychopathic personality disorder for criminal/forensic populations and examines in depth the emerging phenomenon of the ‘corporate psychopath’. In doing so its authors expose the paradoxical nature of the disorder: while it is frequently associated with antisocial, criminal and predatory behaviour, more recent studies have highlighted examples of creative, visionary and inspiring leaders who are also found to present a high degree of psychopathy. They focus on the nature, behaviours and consequences of psychopathy in executives and across the organization, offering an important contribution to the emerging body of research on psychopathy and other problematic personality constructs in the workplace. The book will appeal to scholars, students and professionals across the discipline, and particularly to those working in workplace, forensic and personality psychology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Worldwide economic constraints on health care systems have highlighted the importance of evidence-based medicine and evidence-based health policy. The resulting clinical trials and health services research studies require instruments to monitor the outcomes of care and the output of the health system. However, the over-abundance of competing measurement scales can make choosing a measure difficult at best. Measuring Health provides in-depth reviews of over 100 of the leading health measurement tools and serves as a guide for choosing among them.LNow in its third edition, this book provides a critical overview of the field of health measurement, with a technical introduction and discussion of the history and future directions for the field. This latest edition updates the information on each of the measures previously reviewed, and includes a complete new chapter on anxiety measurement to accompany the one on depression. It has also added new instruments to those previously reviewed in each of the chapters in the book.LChapters cover measurements of physical disability, social health, psychological well-being, anxiety, depression, mental status testing, pain, general health status and quality of life. Each chapter presents a tabular comparison of the quality of the instruments reviewed, followed by a detailed description of each method, covering its purpose and conceptual basis, its reliability and validity and, where possible, shows a copy of the actual scale. To ensure accuracy of the information, each review has been approved by the original author of each instrument or by an acknowledged expert.

Download or read book Rethinking Risk Assessment written by John Monahan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2001-03-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presumed link between mental disorder and violence has been the driving force behind mental health law and policy for centuries. Legislatures, courts, and the public have come to expect that mental health professionals will protect them from violent acts by persons with mental disorders. Yet for three decades research has shown that clinicians' unaided assessments of "dangerousness" are barely better than chance. Rethinking Risk Assessment: The MacArthur Study of Mental Disorder and Violence tells the story of a pioneering investigation that challenges preconceptions about the frequency and nature of violence among persons with mental disorders, and suggests an innovative approach to predicting its occurrence. The authors of this massive project -- the largest ever undertaken on the topic -- demonstrate how clinicians can use a "decision tree" to identify groups of patients at very low and very high risk for violence. This dramatic new finding, and its implications for the every day clinical practice of risk assessment and risk management, is thoroughly described in this remarkable and long-anticipated volume. Taken to heart, its message will change the way clinicians, judges, and others who must deal with persons who are mentally ill and may be violent will do their work.

Download or read book Juvenile Psychopathy written by Jamie Flexon and published by . This book was released on 2018-03-31 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars have focused upon youth in efforts to better understand psychopathy. While the term psychopath is an often-evoked term used to describe the worst among us; the serial killer, the sadist, the chronically violent criminal who preys upon the weak, the distance between the commonly used term and those who satisfy the criteria for the personality disorder is striking. Aggravating the understanding of psychopathy is the disagreement that exists in the scientific community concerning classification, identification and measurement -issues that are amplified when trying to apply the psychopath label to youth. This work is an effort to sort through the literature and to educate the reader with a burgeoning interested on the subject. It is a starting place to anchor the complexity of the issues toward further study and understanding. The orientation of this work, then, is one of simplicity aimed toward a broad audience. The reality that informs this work, and one that is essential to understand, is that while there is an avalanche of research on the topic of psychopathy, including developmental psychopathy, there are more questions than settled empirical findings. While it may appear that many issues are resolved, questions often remain insofar as there is disagreement over conceptual development and measurement of psychopathy -and juvenile psychopathy, in particular. These problems are not unique to psychopathy research, and such complexities are recognized in this writing. Chapters cover issues, such as the identification of psychopathy over time, the changing criteria, definition and measurement of juvenile psychopathy, variants or types of psychopaths, treatment strategies, legal issues and directions for future development. Some of the ideas that readers will become acquainted with are: --Whether there is a dark figure of psychopathy --Whether all psychopaths become violent criminals --Are there variants or types of psychopaths? --Can we improve upon the classification criteria for psychopathy? --Does treatment help psychopathy? --What are the legal consequences that attach to psychopaths By the end of the book, the reader should have a better grasp of the research and thoughts that inform the study of juvenile psychopathy. While the scholarly landscape is complex, this work breaks down the issues into broad, more easily understood ideas. The reader is also aided by understanding the debates in the literature that have characterized the psychopathy literature for some time.
