FORENSIC & CRIMINAL PSYCHOLOGY: Juvenile Crime & Behaviour (Udemy.com)

Have you ever wondered:

• Why some teenagers break rules… while others go much further?

• How “normal” behaviour turns into risk — and sometimes crime?

• What warning signs appear long before something goes wrong?

If so, you are in the right place!

This is not just another theory-based psychology course.

This is a deep, practical exploration of the psychology behind youth crime, combining:

• criminal psychology

• forensic psychology

• real-life case analysis

• modern research

• and prevention strategies

INSTRUCTOR:

Hello, my name is Elmira Strange.

I am a Research Psychologist and online instructor with over 10 years of teaching experience and more than 150,000 students worldwide.

Before teaching online, I worked in the UK as a university lecturer and researcher, specialising in human behaviour.

In this course, I will not just give you information.

I will teach you how to think like a psychologist.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:

In this course, you will understand:

• What juvenile crime really is (and what it is NOT)

• Early warning signs: antisocial behaviour, conduct disorder, impulsivity

• The teenage brain: risk, emotion, and decision-making

• The role of family, attachment, trauma, and environment

• Why peer groups and “bad influence” matter more than we think

• The psychology behind theft, aggression, and serious offences

• School shootings, extreme cases, and myth vs reality

• How risk develops — and how it can be prevented

    Not for shock — but for understanding patterns and prevention
