Forensic Psychology Clause Samples

Forensic Psychology. The Forensic Psychology Research Centre partners with Canadian organizations such as the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and Correctional Service of Canada as affiliates and with international researcher affiliates. There are a number of other colleagues across Carleton from the School of Business, Criminology, and Information Technology who are actively engaged with this work. No other university in Canada provides the depth or breadth in forensic psychology that Carleton University has both at the undergraduate and graduate levels.8 • All forensic faculty members have research programs that are externally funded by Tri-Council funding or other types of government contract work. As well, four of the eight faculty members have CFI-funded laboratories that are used to conduct leading-edge research. 8 The PSYC Cycle Program Review from 2014-15, which was evaluated by External Reviewers included the following statement on p.12: “The Forensic Psychology research area is one of the strongest experimental programs in Canada. Forensic faculty are known for both their strong lab research (e.g., Pozzulo, Eyewitness testimony; ▇▇▇▇▇, Sex offender research) as well as their more applied contributions, such as Serin’s work on Risk Assessment, quickly becoming the international standard, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s work in the area of police psychology, including collaborations with the RCMP and researchers in the UK.” • Current research is being applied to parole decision-making across Canada, the U.S., and New Zealand. Canada’s policing agency, the RCMP, is using work from forensic psychology researchers at Carleton to better understand use-of-force in the field. Moreover, research around violent offending and female offending is routinely used to better understand program needs for prevention, intervention, and overall reduced offending. Consultations occur globally regarding best practices for child witnesses- victims. This work further recognizes the excellence in cognate departments such as law and legal studies, journalism and communication.
