PSY378

028518

This course will address general intersections of various areas of psychology and law. In particular, lessons from developmental, social, clinical, and cognitive psychology will be applied to important substantive issues in criminal law and criminal defenses. In addition, a significant portion of the course will focus on developmental issues in adolescence and their implications for juvenile justice. As such, alternative forms of antisocial behavior (e.g., aggression, delinquency) in adolescence, as well as alternative responses (e.g., rehabilitation, punishment) to these varied behavioral patterns will be explored and discussed in detail.
