The Psychology of Crime - Taster Day – The University of Law
The University of Law – Leeds Campus will be hosting a subject taster day for our BSc (Hons) Psychology course launching in September 2023 on Tuesday 27th June, 10am-3pm.
An exciting opportunity to examine the psychology behind a criminal case.

What will the day involve?
Theories of crime and nature vs. nurture
Psychology of police interviewing
Media influence on portrayals of crime and victims
Purpose of prison
The role of a forensic psychologist in a prison setting
Facts of the case – Students are presented with the facts of the case, with an opportunity to discuss nature vs nurture and how this may impact an individual. We will look at theories of crime to understand why individuals commit crime or behave in certain ways.
Psychology in the Criminal Justice System – Understand the psychology of police interviewing techniques and how the media can influence a criminal case.
Punishment vs rehabilitation – What should a prison sentence achieve? In this session we will discuss the difference between a punitive and rehabilitative approaches in prisons. Students will have the chance explore how forensic psychologists create intervention plans to reduce reoffending.
