In October of this year (2024) Philip Zimbardo passed at the age 91. After a legendary career in psychology, he is known for a very innovative study at Stanford University. A group of students, who were about to get quite a surprise, were randomly assigned be either guards or prisoners. In this episode we look back at Zimbardo’s life and the surprising outcomes of some of his most controversial research on the dynamics of incarceration.

Show Highlights:

• The life and career of one Philip Zimbardo.
• The BBC special on the Stanford Prison Study. Zimbardo’s inspiration from the Attica Prison uprising.
• Students randomly assigned to be “guards” and “prisoners.”
• The Stanley Milgram experiment on obedience to authority. Shocking results.
• Guards who became sympathetic, and those who become “hardliners.”
• Controversies and conclusions about this infamous study.

Criminal Behaviorology Lab Leak! Nicholas Wade and Origin of SARS-CoV-2

The entire interview can be found on our YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/b-uyVPAnd5I

The views of our guests do not necessarily reflect those of Criminal Behaviorology, nor our sponsors. 

Nicholas Wade has written numerous books and articles on science. As the Science Editor for the New York Times (1990 to 1996) he possesses the skills necessary to sift through complicated ideas and arrive at the truth. When the COVID-19 (aka SARS-CoV-2) pandemic began, he soon began to suspect there was an unspoken truth about the origin of the virus.  He found not only was there evidence this virus was not of natural origin, but there was a deliberate effort to keep such an idea from becoming part of the mainstream discourse.

Show Highlights:

- Nicholas Wade’s concern with bias in science writing.

- How he became interested in SARS-CoV-2. The sustained campaign to suppress the lab leak hypothesis.

- How SARS-CoV-2 looks and acts differently than a natural virus. The three parts of the SARS-CoV-2’s genetic structure that point to a synthetic origin.

- The 2018 DEFUSE proposal: Manipulation of the original SARS virus.

- The objections to “gain-of-function” research. How they were ignored.

- Behavioral and circumstantial evidence. The uncooperativeness of the Chinese government.

- Political polarization regarding the SARS-CoV-2 issue.

- Do we have enough evidence already?

- The harm done to the reputation of the scientific community.

Your gracious host took part in a webinar on August 25th, 2022. This was titled Novel Uses of ABA: Part IV. My modest contribution was on the subject of competency to stand trial (CST). This was a well attended event, with much audience participation. 

Show Highlights:

• What is CST and how can behavior analysis assist in the process.
• Discrete trial training in learning court terms and concepts.
• The use of matching cards, as well as “tacting,” and “intraverbals.”
• Should behavior analysts touch the criminal justice system with a twenty-one and a half foot pole? The importance of ethics in competency restoration.
• Practical issues raised in the Q&A about malingering, client populations, and how one can become involved in this area of behavior analysis.

Criminal Behaviorology All the (Road) Rage: The Causes of Driver Aggression 

The video of this entire interview can be viewed here: 

https://youtu.be/I4YW5JoDt3A 

The views of our guests do not necessarily reflect those of Criminal Behaviorology, nor our sponsors, if we had any. 

Dr. Jerrod Brown, Ph.D., is a professor, trainer, consultant, and researcher, and the founder and CEO of the American Institute for the Advancement of Forensic Studies (AIAFS). He has had two previous appearances on Criminal Behaviorology (listed below). He once again came to educate us the subject of road rage (Driver Aggression). If you are traveling for the holidays, or any reason, this might be an important episode. Stay safe out there. 

Show Highlights: 

- Dr. Brown looks at the behaviors involved in road rage from a psychological perspective. 

- Minor driving aggression (what we all do) can progress into full rage. Road rage as on the most extreme side of the spectrum. 

- Anxious driving behavior, driver related stress, and other types of problematic driving behaviors. 

- The variables involved: dehydration and nutrition; what happens before one gets in a car; warm temperatures; neurology and impulse control (executive function); maturity level; population (more cars on the road); alexithymia; emotional intelligence; sleep deprivation. 

- Road Rage: What it is, and what it is not. The coining of the term sometime in the 1980s. 

-What is the intent, if there was one? Driven by rage. -What are the behaviors observed? Intimidation? Gestures of aggression, threats? 

- Triggering events: Slow driving; reckless driving behavior of others; discourtesy and disrespect by other drivers; time urgency; family troubles; driver distractions. 

- The personal nature of the automobile. How the car gives us so much autonomy, attention, respect and other benefits. The car as a second home or office - If you are in an automobile accident… How to act. What to do.

More Horror Movies Equals Less Crime: An Analysis of Movies on Crime Reduction 

The video of this entire reading can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/QmlSTwl0UW8 

Donate to Criminal Behaviorology Podcast: 

https://anchor.fm/criminalbehaviorology (Hit “$ Support”, then make selection) 

A reading of a 2017 Washington Post article, and 2009 Quarterly Journal of Economics article, on horror movies. The idea of horror movies reducing violent crime appears counterintuitive. However, the concept of a replacement behavior becomes critical in understanding of this study. The whole idea brings about more questions than it answers. Do not be afraid to explore this new idea. Wait! On second thought, be afraid. It is Halloween! 

Show Highlights: 

- Do horror movies produce more crime, or are they “harmless”
