You always hurt the one you love

The one you shouldn’t hurt at all

You always take the sweetest rose

And crush it till the petals fall

—“You Always Hurt the One You Love,” song written by Doris Fisher and Allan Roberts

Intimate partner violence can bring unique experiences for forensic psychology professionals, as oftentimes the victim wants to protect the offender. Police are repeatedly called to the same household under domestic violence complaints. Victims may want law enforcement assistance at the time of the crime, but are reluctant to follow through with charges and testimony. This cycle of abuse is challenging to understand for those working with these individuals.

In this Discussion, you apply the concepts of personality disorder from earlier in the course as you analyze the manifestation of intimate partner violence by the offender and the possible counterintuitive behaviors of their victims.

Explain how the different personalities you have studied manifest in intimate partner violence. Explain possible counterintuitive behaviors that victims might display. Provide examples that illustrate your rationales. Explain how victim responses potentially create a dilemma for those in the criminal justice system and how a forensic psychology professional should react.

/in /by

create two Word Clouds. The first should be based on  quasi-experimental methods, and the second one should be based on  experimental research methods. Reflect on your readings and additional  research conducted this week. What key terms or themes surround each of  these research methods? This reflection exercise will assist in creating  your Word Clouds.

Next, prepare a critical analysis of the differences between a  quasi-experimental and an experimental research method. For your  selected research topic of interest, determine the types of variables or  measures might you want to examine that you don’t have any control over  (e.g., age, gender, IQ, or other factors that could impact the outcome  dependent measures). With these variables in mind, provide an example of  a quasi-experimental research study where you intentionally look at  these variables as your ‘quasi’ independent variable; explain why your  study would be considered ‘quasi’.

How might you be able to revise this to a true experiment – even just hypothetically speaking?

Support your assignment with at least three scholarly resources. In  addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly  resources, including seminal articles, may be included.

Length: 4-6 pages, not including title and reference pages. Be sure to include your Word Clouds with your submission.

Your assignment should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the  ideas and concepts presented in the course by providing new thoughts and  insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should  reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards.
