PURPOSE
Aggression and violence are complex social problems that are best understood using multidisciplinary approaches. Drawing from research and theoretical frameworks covered in this course, you will apply what you have learned and explore one of the most bizarre and intriguing phenomena in human behavior, the serial killer. Examining the lives of serial killers offers a useful learning tool because their behavior is unquestionably aggressive and often depicts the most extreme cases of violence. The purpose of this research paper is to facilitate making connections between theory, research, and the real-world implications triggered by such violent behavior.
OBJECTIVES
The main object of this assignment is to research a serial killer of your choice and explain his or her actions with the theories and concepts discussed throughout this course. After completing this research paper, you will be able to recognize the key theories and concepts discussed in chapters 2 and 4 of your book. Additionally, you will have expanded your knowledge of the physiology and psychology of human aggression and violence.
TASKS
1. Content: The content of your paper must address the three parts discussed below. You need to incorporate theories, concepts, and research discussed throughout this course and/or from your book.
Part 1: Biographical Information – What was the individual’s life like? Upbringing? Criminal behavior? What was his/her childhood like? Childhood behavioral problems? Schooling? Did he/she marry? Have any children? Sexual orientation? Social behavior? (1 page)
Part 2: Criminal Activity – What were the nature of the crimes? How many victims? Any specific victim characteristics? Did the killer take souvenirs and/or leave a signature? What is their “modus operandi” (method of doing something)? Time span for the crimes? What was his/her behavior when caught? What was he/she charged with and sentenced to? Is he/she still alive? (1 page)
Part 3: Analysis/Characterizing the Serial Killer – Attempt to analyze the killer’s behavior from any of the approaches discussed in Alvarez and Bachman (your textbook) and additional sources. Give specific examples of how the individual’s behavior connects with at least one theory and one concept discussed in class. Finally, based on the Gradations of Evil Scale, note which category number is most appropriate and include your reasons. (3-4 pages)
2. Reflection: You are required to complete a one-page reflection paper explaining why you chose this specific killer. This reflection is intended to be your viewpoint, as such, no references are needed. You may wish to consider the ways your culture, social setting, ethnicity, sex, or upbringing has affected your beliefs about serial killers. You also may reflect on any assumptions you may have had prior to your research and if so, how your background norms and beliefs have influenced these assumptions.
3. References: A minimum of 6 references should be used, with at least 3 sources being from peer-reviewed journals. Note the following:
You must count your book as a reference.
Unacceptable sources of information: Wikipedia, Murderpedia, and/or opinion blogs. These tend to be biased and unreliable. Always look for the original source of information.
