Criminal Behaviorology

The video of this entire interview can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/xA3ZDZ8COBM Joseph Wyatt, Ph.D., is a retired forensic psychologist, and previous guest on Criminal Behaviorology. In 2002 he took an interest in the infamous McMartin Preschool trial, which took place in California. If you have not heard of this case, take some time to look up the story. It is simply the most shocking case of false accusation I have encountered. Joe takes a critical, and behavior analytic, viewpoint regarding the expert opinion of an archeologist  who claimed to have discovered evidence of sinister tunnels built under the preschool buildings.  These tunnels would seem to confirm the allegations of secret sexual abuse and ritualistic torture. But is there an alternative conclusion - one with a behavior analytic explanation?  (Podcast listeners - skip to 10:12 unless you enjoy Joe and I conversing on audio quality) Show Highlights: A respected preschool center is accused of crimes so shocking it made news the world over.The use of anatomically detailed dolls to facilitate interviews with children. The misapplication of these methods, and the belief that children could not make up such explicit stories, led to the unjust prosecution in the McMartin case.How children could be influenced by the interviewing techniques used in the case.The parents of children involved in the case, in a very emotional state, asked for an archeological analysis to provide evidence of secret tunnels allegedly put in place to commit unspeakable crimes beneath the building. Ground penetrating radar, and a detailed report followed that supported the existence of underground tunnels.Skinner’s concept of “Operant Seeing.” Is this an explanation for why an expert archeologist’s flawed conclusions when the totality of the evidence clearly indicates an innocent explanation? Confirmatory bias - the pursuing of conclusions before the facts.The legacy of the McMartin trial. How could so many be so wrong about such a serious criminal case? The real victims of McMartin case.

Criminal Behaviorology Kids, Cars and Danger Janette Fennell had a rather dramatic beginning in her advocacy of car safety. Kidnapped at gunpoint with her husband, they were placed in the trunk of their own car and transported to an unknown location. After they managed to escape using their bare hands, she sought out data on cases of trunk entrapment and what could be done in terms of prevention. In time, she helped mandate interior trunk releases for all cars in the United States. Because of the efforts of this one-woman data collection machine, she began to work on the phenomenon of children dying in hot cars after lapses in memory by their parents. This episode focuses on the tragic and the hopeful. Dr. David Diamond, memory expert and neuroscientist, joins us to discuss his role in answering the question: “How could a parent mistakenly leave their own child in a vehicle?” As hundreds of children have died in hot car deaths, and notable criminal prosecutions have resulted, we delve into the intricacies of the human memory and technology that could save the lives of many. Video of this interview in its entirety: https://youtu.be/pGcUNnuSpHY Show Highlights: - Janette’s kidnapping from her own garage and escape from being contained in the trunk of her car. The realization that the National Highway Safety Administration did not collect data on deaths and injuries related to vehicles not on the roads, despite numerous such incidents in many different ways. -The reality of children being left in hot cars. The change in environment (within the car) that came from laws having children ride in the back to prevent deaths from airbag deployment. - Notable cases such as the films Stop All Clocks and especially the Justin Ross Harris case in Fatal Distraction. - How prosecutors are handling cases like this. The significance of public perception and particularly how the media has responded. - Dr. Diamond discusses the significance of brain anatomy and his own experiences in the potential for a loss of awareness due to environmental and neurological factors. - The Hot Cars Act and the potential for an improvement in vehicle safety using technology to save the lives of children. - The significance of data collection in regards to why some issues are perceived as important and others are sadly neglected.

Criminal Behaviorology Victims or survivors? Victimology as Viewed by a Behavior Analyst Karola Dillenberger is a Professor of Behaviour Analysis and Education and Director of the Centre for Behaviour Analysis at Queen’s University Belfast. She provides insights from her 2007 article on behavior analysis and victimology. Her own experiences living in Northern Ireland supplement this often neglected side of the impact of criminality. We find that many of the same contingencies found with victims are also in place in the learning histories of perpetrators. A video presentation of this discussion can be found in its entirety below: https://youtu.be/3GrmLz9lKkk Show Highlights: - What is Victimology as a field of study? The main differences between victims and survivors? - The three key concepts: a) personal learning history; b) prevailing contingencies; and c) cultural contexts. How these concepts factor in the development of victims and perpetrators. - The importance of behavioral economics in the study of victims. Closed and open economies. - Trans-generational transmission of trauma. - The old idea of an “unconscious longing to be a victim.” The lack of evidence to support such a notion and how a careful examination of the contingencies involved can dispel many of these mysterious explanations of victim behavior, as in domestic violence and other examples. - Karola’s emphasis on getting away from “bigger and bigger words,” greater elaboration found in much of psychodynamic and psychological literature, and instead focus on the basics of behavior. What is the antecedent? What is happening now? Behavior analysis as a means to deal with depression and bereavement. - The increased use of behavior analytic concepts in several fields, often without even mentioning the field of behavior analysis specifically.

Criminal Behaviorology A Critical Look at In Cold Blood: The True Crime Novel as a Work of Literature After meeting writer Nicholas Tredell in 2018, I found him to have a keen understanding of true crime, writing, and history. He has edited a new book focusing on the Truman Capote novel, In Cold Blood. We discuss the infamous Clutter family murder as written about in Capote’s world-famous work, as well as in multiple film and television adaptations, as well as the influence of such a style of writing. Show Highlights: - The Clutter family murder in Holcomb, Kansas in 1959. The shocking nature of such a crime in its time as compared to today. - The psychology of the perpetrators, Smith and Hickock. The “folie à deux” (“madness for two”) element in this murder. The social-psychological factors involved. - The very pertinent issues in this case, impacting us to this day, including insanity as a defense, the death penalty, and so forth. - What is appealing regarding this case and Truman Capote’s book, In Cold Blood. - The cross-cutting technique in Capote’s writing and other prescient features that are hallmarks of modern true crime and fiction stories. - What is special about the true crime novel as literature and why true crime remains so popular. - The accuracy of these kinds of based-on-a-true-story type novels and movies. Can such a genre ever be completely accurate, or is some embellishment necessary to truly convey the ideas? - Capote’s possible insight into how our changing world was relevant to the Kansas murders. Crimes motivated for self-esteem. - How our modern life, highway travel, technology, and other factors all contribute to crimes manifested in new ways.

Criminal Behaviorology Trick or Treat! Behavior Theory and Crime, Dog Training and Beggars’ Night Becomes Halloween Three readings as a treat for this Halloween season. One segment from a criminology textbook and two articles on behavior analysis as it relates to this ghoulish time of the year. Show Highlights: - Behavior theory as seen by a criminologist. What is unique about behaviorism as compared to other fields in psychology. Why it is important for understanding the causes of crime. Criticisms of behavior theory. - Operant conditioning and dog training. How our pets react can tell us something about the influence of the environment we have created for them. The importance doing good things without an incentive. The idea of altruism. - How behavior analysis helped create the tradition of Halloween. Ugly realities of October in the 1930s. Police reports on vandalism and other mayhem in Des Moines, Iowa. How one woman started a campaign to establish an alternate behavior for children (perform a trick, stunt, sing a song, etc.) on “Beggars’ Night,” the legacy of these efforts today.

Criminal Behaviorology Two Speakers on Behavior Analysis (Novel Uses of ABA) In a recent webinar on the Novel Uses of Applied Behavior Analysis, we have presentations from two very accomplished speakers. Kent Corso, PsyD, BCBA-D, has worked in the areas of suicidality, health and military applications, and has been a guest on a previous episode. Vanessa Bethea-Miller, MA, BCBA, provides details regarding the juvenile justice population and how behavior analysis can make a difference. Kent begins at 04:55 and ends about 39:04. Vanessa begins at 40:31 and winds up the podcast. Corso Highlights: - How the research on behavior analysis has focused on such a small percentage of the population. - “Demand Signals” regarding where behavior analytic research could be useful. Options for the future dissemination of behavior analysis. - The importance of publishing in non-ABA journals and communicating respectfully and efficiently with those outside the field. Bethea-Miller Highlights: - Defining juvenile justice in behavioral terms. - Statistics and pertinent facts regarding this population. - Research on methods of treatment. - Token reinforcement and contingency management programs. - Switching from a reactive to a preventive model.

Criminal Behaviorology Joseph Cautilli, behavior analyst extraordinaire, discusses, at length, the use of this field in corrections, and in the treatment of mental disorders including depression, ADHD and schizophrenia. Joe also lists some of the past accomplishments which are at risk of disappearing unless a new generation of researchers will carry the torch. In this very cerebral conversation, we examine how specialists in the field have made important gains that were never put into widespread use or have otherwise been pushed aside in favor of more popular applications. Show Highlights: - Joe’s journey from counselor to behavior analyst. - Mental Health TV - Behavior analysis in correctional facilities: Maybe some things work. - Schizophrenia, ADHD and other disorders. Are these conditions biological in origin? Does it matter? - The use of behavior analysis in speech therapy, couples counseling and other areas. The importance of tailoring our language to meet the needs of the population being served. - The closing window of opportunity to learn from some innovative thinkers in behavior analysis.

Criminal Behaviorology Bad Analysis Equals Wrongful Conviction: The Tragic Case of Timothy Masters Timothy Masters was released from a Colorado prison in 2008 after serving nine years for a crime he did not commit. In this episode, we will review an article (When Worlds Collide, The Forensic Examiner, 2009) by Frank S. Perri and Terrence G. Lichtenwald on the Masters case, and focus on the proper and improper use of criminal profiling. Updates and other information on the webinar can be found at this Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/NovelApplications/ Show Highlights: - The facts of the Masters case including the details of the crime, the extrapolation of personality and behavioral characteristics from Masters’s drawings and the lack of physical evidence linking him to the murder. - Allegations of the defense not receiving pertinent details, including the opinion of retired FBI Agent Roy Hazelwood. - The use of a forensic psychologist in cases of criminal profiling, and why such an expert could view the same information very differently from a seasoned criminal investigator. - The reality of criminal profiling and why we must be careful in the interpretation of evidence in cases like this one.

Criminal Behaviorology I Have Decided to Call this Criminal Behaviorology In a recent symposium, presented online, your host had the opportunity to present on the Application and Dissemination of Applied Behavior Analysis in the Criminal Justice Field. Along with an excellent opportunity to discuss an area of behavior analysis not always presented at such conferences, there was also a walk down memory lane regarding some of the episodes we have presented previously. In addition, the announcement of an upcoming (July 30th, 2020) webinar on “Novel Uses of Applied Behavior Analysis,” for which Continuing Education units are available. Sign-up information is below: https://www.signupforms.com/registrations/23153 Updates and other information on this webinar can be found at this Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/NovelApplications/ Show Highlights: - The start of Criminal Behaviorology as an area of interest. A brief review of literature on crime and behavior analysis that is by no means exhaustive. - A Special Interest Group with the Association of Behavior Analysis International (ABAI) on Crime, Delinquency and Forensic Behavior Analysis. - A special focus on domestic violence, in part because of some very intriguing literature, and because it is an area of where crime and behavior analysis intersect in some ways potentially quite beneficial. - The upcoming webinar on the novel applications of ABA. A set of speakers on different topics for students, researchers, and practitioners of applied behavior analysis.

Criminal Behaviorology Criminology from a New Perspective: The Psychosocial View David Gadd and Tony Jefferson wrote the book Psychosocial Criminology. These gentlemen graciously agreed to interview via WebEx and discuss the ideas in the book. Although we had some differences in approach to the fascinating world of criminality, we also shared some common ground on the importance of individual experiences and the complexities involving each case. We went on past the scheduled time, but Tony Jefferson reminded me that none of us are going anywhere, with things as they are, so we continued the discussion a bit longer. Show Highlights: - The distinction of the psychosocial view from a purely sociological examination on what causes crime. - The significance of the case-study approach. Contrasting case studies from cross-sectional research. How looking at large population comparisons can be a problem when analyzing data. The proper use of case studies and cross-sectional approaches. - Freud’s ideas regarding mental conflict. The relevance of the Freudian view and what is the unconscious anyway (sorry behavior analysts
