DEACON, Jude
Some psychodynamic reflections on polygraph examinations with sex offenders
Probation Journal, London, V.46,n.4(Dec. 1999), p.241-245


DELINQUENTE SEXUAL, DETETOR DE MENTIRAS

With the approval of the authors of "The Use of the Polygraph in the Community Supervision of Sex Offenders", Probation Journal invited Jude Deacon both to offer some general observations and to comment on the case for such methods made in that article. She adopts a psychodynamic approach, in particular exploring the role of external inhibitors to offending in the context of social and organisational defences against anxiety.
