Assignment
Personality Disorders and Criminal Behavior
Select one of the
personality disorders discussed in Chapter 4 (i.e., odd or eccentric
personality disorders, dramatic personality disorders, anxious or fearful
personality disorders, or antisocial personality disorder) and locate two to
three scholarly articles in the Ashford Library that discusses a link between
that personality disorder and the development of criminal behavior. In your
paper, discuss the diagnostic characteristics of the personality disorder, the
etiology of the disorder (the causes of the disorder, when it first manifests,
etc.), and how the characteristics of the disorder have been linked to future
criminal behavior. Discuss early warning signs, assessment methods, and
treatments that can be used to manage the disorder. Is it possible to treat the
disorder before criminal tendencies develop?
The paper must be two
to three pages in length and formatted according to APA style. In addition to
the textbook, you must use two to three scholarly resources from the Ashford
University Library to support your claims. Cite your sources within the text of
your paper and on the reference page. For information regarding APA, including
samples and tutorials, visit the Ashford Writing Center, located within the
Learning Resources tab on the left navigation toolbar, in your online course.
