How do you feel about the idea of working with sex offenders?
-Generally we would be uncomfortable dealing with them. More so, if we are a part of their victim profile.
-

2. What would you find personally challenging about the work?
- Practising empathy and separating personal conflicts with job responsibilities. And controlling our emotions.
- Trying not to take what they say personally and get affected by it.
-
3. How might these issues affect the way you work with sex offenders?
- Being unable to empathise may affect the tone and body language that we are speaking to them in, leading to mistrust of the clients - ineffective counselling as the client may stop sharing

4. How might it affect your attitudes about other people?
- Becoming more cynical over time
- Hard to trust other people

5. How might it impact on other areas of your life?
-
6. What would help you cope with the difficulties in the work?
-Preparation before the session
-Debrief about the case after the session.]]> 2018-08-03 04:22:44 UTC https://padlet.com/pirinitaa/PY2110tutD/wish/271859232 Task 2: Everyday Distortions pirinitaa https://padlet.com/pirinitaa/PY2110tutD/wish/271861326 How do people justify:

They got chatting and she invited him back to her house for a quick drink. They began to kiss and ended up in the bedroom. He pressured her into having sex but she said no. He then raped her. During the 🤬 she remained quiet and did not say anything so he said she must have enjoyed it. When questioned, K said that she'll be okay because "she clearly wanted to have sex" as she invited him back to her place, which gave him the green light. He also said that "there's no way it could be 🤬" as she never screamed or complained or anything like that.

-Minimising the fact that she said "no" and that they had a few drinks
-It boils down to verbal consent, which was not given in this situation. So we would ask him, why did he continue on even after he heard her say 'no'?

Yes.

2. What are his attitudes towards violence?

He seems to be trivialising the violence. He does not view it as a serious, alluding it as being normal.

3. What about his ability to perspective-take?

He lacks the empathy to view his wife's perspective.

4. Does he take responsibility for his behaviour? What justifications does he use?

No, he does not. "It's normal, she fell over because she had too much to drink. She's making a big deal out of it.'

5. What might be relevant static or predisposing factors in this case?

Family history of violence; demographic differences; low EQ.

6. What might be relevant dynamic factors (eg. disinhibitors)?

Alcohol; maybe lack of personal support.

7. What is his attitude towards treatment?

He is uncertain and dismissive towards treatment. He is pushing the blame on his wife.

8. What does this tell you about his risk? To whom might he be a risk?

High risk boiboi. To himself and his family.

9. Other than your clinical judgement, what kind of formal risk assessment tool could you use to evaluate the risk Kevin poses to others? What kind of information would you need?

• Conflict Tactics Scale (CTS)
• Danger Assessment (DA)
• Domestic Violence Screening Inventory (DVSI)
• Kingston Screening Instrument for Domestic Violence (K-SID)
• Spousal Assault Risk Assessment Guide (SARA)
You probably need to ask the wife since he feels like it is a normal thing.

10. What could you do to manage his risk?

Personal counselling and couples counselling. ]]> 2018-08-10 04:35:05 UTC https://padlet.com/pirinitaa/PY2110tutD/wish/272587016 Tutorial 4 Task 1 naba_naseer https://padlet.com/pirinitaa/PY2110tutD/wish/272587040 1. Has Kevin been violent?

Yes. He has admitted to pushing and hitting his wife on multiple occasions.
2. What are his attitudes towards violence?

He does not see the severity of the issue, he describes it as "little bit of pushing and shoving". Therefore, it indicates that he does not take the issue as seriously as Lydia.
3. What about his ability to perspective-take?

He does not see the situation from Lydia's perspective and does not understand why it is serious enough for her to talk to a psychologist or even give him an ultimatum.
4. Does he take responsibility for his behaviour? What justifications does he use?

No, he does not take responsibility. He tries to shift the responsibility on alcohol or brushes it off as things that happen in any relationship - 'couples have arguments'.
5. What might be relevant static or predisposing factors in this case?

Through the conversation, it might be implied that he does not see violence in a relationship as that serious of a problem, as he describes it as 'pushing and shoving'. Therefore, he may have been violent previously as well, but it is not clearly stated.
6. What might be relevant dynamic factors? (eg. Disinhibition)

Alcoholism; as there is always alcohol involved. When asked how often alcohol is a factor, he says 'most of the time'.
7. What is his attitude towards treatment?

He does not see it as necessary but he is willing to do it to keep the family together. It is not because he sees it as a problem but mostly due to the fact that Lydia has given him an ultimatum.
8. What does this tell you about his risk? To whom might he be a risk?

There is a high risk of violence towards his wife and children if he continues to drink and have arguments with his wife.
9. Other than your clinical judgment, what kind of formal risk assessment tools could you use to evaluate the risk Kevin poses to others? What kind of information would you need?

- SARA and other actuarial or SPJ violence risk assessments are appropriate. Many domestic violence risk assessments lack reliability and validity.
10. What could you do to manage his risk?

He would benefit from an anger management therapy, (group or
CBT) to address his cognitive distortions as well as improving empathy. He should also abstain from alcohol.

High internal validity (in Minnesota Prison)
Cost effective
Objective

2. What are the disadvantages?

Low external validity
Does not predict recidivism for all types of offending.
It is not possible to link with needs, therefore we are unable to produce conditional risk statements.
Certain correctional facilities might not have the IT infrastructure to support the test.

3. Do you think automation is a good idea?
It might be for certain offences (perhaps petty crimes), but for the major felonies, it might not be the best idea?

4. Do you think clinicians or computers are more likely to make correct decisions?
a
5. If you were an advisor to the Singapore Government, would you advocate clinical, actuarial, SPJ or fully automated risk assessment?
a

- High degree of consistency of inter-rater reliability
- Higher cost-benefits of using MnSTARR
(Duwe & Rocque, 2017)
- Different from other risk assessments (eg. COMPAS) as they have a 'multiband' instrument that categorises male and female, instead of being inclusive of both (Duwe, 2014).
- High objectivity as it is automated.

2. What are the disadvantages?
Predictive validity is lower, as scores on MnSTARR are higher compared to that of manual scoring (Duwe & Rocque, 2017).
