a) Review this DVD program, "Application of Psychological Research - Clinical Settings." Consider the areas of forensic psychology research that are relevant to forensic clinical settings.
b) Review the article, "Actuarial Versus Clinical Assessments of Dangerousness," in this Learning Resources.
c) Pay particular attention to the studies discussed in the article and the key "takeaways" from these studies. Think about how a forensic psychology professional might use the findings of the studies in a forensic clinical setting.
d) Using the Walden Library, select and review another study, current or historical, that was conducted in a forensic clinical setting.
e) Again, focus on the key "takeaways" of the study you selected and think about how the findings might be used by a forensic psychology professional in forensic clinical settings.
With these thoughts in mind:
Post a brief summary of the study you selected, being sure to include the key findings and any other important "takeaways" of the study. Then, explain how a forensic psychology professional might use the findings in this or another clinical forensic setting.
The response should include a reference list. Using one-inch margins, Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space and APA style of writing and citations.
