Abstract: | This article discusses misconceptions in Bennell, Jones, Taylor, and Snook's (2006) critique of Kocsis (2003a) concerning the validities and abilities surrounding criminal profiling. It also, in part, serves to canvass the approach of investigative psychology and what may be viewed as an imperative for some of its proponents to challenge evidence into the validity of criminal profiling, which is not easily reconcilable with that ideology. |
