Yahoo! 14/5/2020 News Investigative Empathy: A Strength Scale of Empathy Based on European Police Perspectives A growing body of research suggests that empathy plays a major role in establishing and maintaining rapport during police interviews. The benefits of rapport include not only increased cooperation from interviewees, but also gaining more accurate investigation-relevant information. However, there still is no universally agreed-upon definition and very little research on operationalizing empathy, especially within investigative interviewing. The present study analyzed police interviewers’ self-reports regarding their (a) training and methods employed during interviews, (b) application of empathy in interviews, and (c) definitions/understanding of empathy. It was found that officers in all seven participating countries varied within each country in their use of accusatory or information-gathering interview styles. The majority of participants in each country claimed to employ empathy in their interviews with suspects, yet they varied regarding the definitions they provided. In no country was empathy defined as having aspects that may not be conducive to investigative interviewing. Psychiatry Psychology and Law - Registration at source 14/5/2020 Research article Legal Crime: An Analytical Framework For Studying International Criminogenic Polices Increasing globalisation increases the difficulty of studying crime (and analogous social injury) exponentially and necessitates new methods and theoretical. The current paper proposes a new analytical framework for studying criminogenic policies created bi- or multilaterally which serves several purposes. First, this fills a major gap in the state crime literature that fails to investigate state crimes where more than one state is criminally responsible. Second, the concept of an international criminogenic policy provides a new avenue for studying multiple participating criminal states and begins to explain how policy can create criminogenic conditions. Lastly, the new analytical framework integrates four disparate, major bodies of literature: (1) state-corporate crime/crimes of the powerful literature; (2) world-systems analysis; (3) social structure of accumulation theory; and (4) the concept of the transnational capitalist class. Taken together, the proposed framework offers a lens forstudying complex crimes via policy formation and its consequences.
