In Rosenhan’s study; “On Being Sane In Insane Places”, Rosenhan seeks to examine the validity and reliability of psychiatric diagnosis and the effects of labeling. Rosenhan also aims to find out whether; “the salient characteristics that lead to diagnoses reside in the patients themselves or in the environments and contexts in which the observers find them?” (Rosenhan, 1973, p.3) In other words, Rosenhan wants to test the ability of psychiatrists and other hospital staff, to correctly distinguish people who have a mental illness from those who don’t, and investigate whether a diagnosis is derived from a patient’s mental state itself or, if the environment the patient is placed in effects how the diagnosis is made.…
My perspective of the article is that I think the police should do thorough investigation, and that the article does explain very well of how a false confession can occurred. This topic does not affect me in a negative way. It show me that when I become a detective one day, I should be focusing on getting the truth, try to make that 21% decrease. It is significant because we in trust that our law enforcement will do a great job of getting evidence. But hearing that false confession could happen to anyone and possibly putting innocent in jail is world and it will affect the community. I hope the police well do a better job at detecting false confession, and preventing innocent from being lock up.…

When no other evidence against the subject can be found, getting a confession becomes of outmost importance, and with the misclassification of an innocent person they are often subjected to accusation interrogation. The primary cause of police-induced false confession is psychologically coercive police methods. Two ways of the psychological coercion can be defined: police use of interrogation techniques that are regarded as inherently coercive in psychology and law, or police use of interrogation techniques that, cumulatively cause a suspect to perceive that he has no choice but to comply with interrogator’s demands (Leo, R. 2013). With coercion there are police practices in interrogations that can also lead to false confessions. Although police have been trained not to contaminate a confession, doing so by feeding or leaking crucial facts. Feeding facts contaminates a confession because if a suspect is told how the crime happened, then police can never again properly test the suspect’s knowledge (Garrett, B.…

Syndrome, it is very perplexing why a hostage would bond with their kidnapper, who is the cause of their trauma. Generally, one would think of their kidnapper as an evil, cruel, inhumane individual, but why would Stockholm Syndrome develop and make someone see their captor in a positive light? Overall, Stockholm Syndrome develops as a defence mechanism, and it makes the victim form an attachment to their captor which makes their judgment of the situation obscured.…
Victim facilitation, precipitation and provocation are three terms used to describe a victim’s role in a crime. Furthermore, they each focus on the prevalence of the victims involvement, minimizes victim blaming and enhances victim personal responsibility. First, victim facilitation, is used in a way as to not blame the victim but to blame the interaction that the victim has that makes them susceptible to becoming a victim of crime (Karmen, 2016). In victim facilitation, researchers study the actions that make a victim vulnerable to victimization. The text states that "victim facilitation ought to be reserved for situations in which victims carelessly and inadvertently make it easier for a thief to steal (Karmen, A., 2010)." Their carelessness…
