Russell, I haven't forgotten about this. Just to keep things rolling, let me stir the pot. Are you suggesting that people who scored highly on the PCL-R such...

Bryan, I think a good parallel would be a bank robber with a gun, no note, no casing the joint, no consideration of whom he might run into inside or exiting,...
Hey Joe, How's the weather? I think that was Hazelwood actually. Or at least I've been present when he has said that in his lecture. He even used my website...
Also factor in the power of fear and intimidation. The entire gang culture is permeated with an ethos of not-snitching. There are anti-snitch t-shirts that...
Not enough, moi. Excellent post. Russell ... culture is permeated with an ethos of not-snitching. There are anti-snitch t-shirts that were even being sold at...
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this moi. Excellent post and it gives me a great deal more to consider on this topic. When I am doing some groups with my...
Amber, With our plummeting rate in the US, a stable clearance rate would be great. 88%? I suppose you have to look at the number of cases as well. How many ...
Bryan, In general, the more sophisticated the psychopath the lower the score. Characteristics such as good impulse control reduce the score. A prototypical...

Bryan, Both Factor 1 and Factor 2. Examples for Factor 1 would include Glibness/superficial charm and pathological lying. The sophisticated psychopath would...
Thanks Bryan, good point. Australia currently has approximately 350 homicides per annum as opposed to the United States which has approximately 19,500 in the...

Russell, If not caught, of course their score would be lower because there may not be a score for Item 20 - Criminal Versatility (yet this item can still be ...
Amber, From what I have read, your numbers and primary motives sound closer to the US about 40 years ago. It seems the shift came as the US developed more ...
Russell, Interesting. How did this happen? Who sent it in? Do you need me to do anything? I haven't worked on it, or heard from Dr. Silva in more than a ...
Joe, 37 for Buffalo is pretty good isn't it? What is the population there? We have people from all over on this board. Anyone interested in trying to find...
Bryan, This is the same one we submitted with the wrong paperwork, or lost paperwork, in 2008. Art will be presenting and the only thing I know of that we...
