A presumption was made that "the position will be clearer by the time of publication of the May 2006 issue". Well, the future of the 2004 Draft Bill has of course now been resolved - as all readers will know, it has followed the 2002 Draft Bill2 into the shredder. Instead the 1983 Act is to be amended, as recommended by (amongst others) David Brindle, public services editor of the Guardian, way back in March 20053 . So there is fresh ‘uncertainty’ to concern us - on this occasion, uncertainty about the detail of the proposed amendments. The debate over the direction of mental health law reform which was started with the appointment of the Expert Committee in October 19984 , and in which so many people and organisations have participated over the last eight years, is not yet concluded. The Department of Health have helpfully issued ‘Briefing Sheets’5 which give a flavour of the Government’s intentions and hopes, but as relevant ministers and civil servants will know all too well, it will not be a smooth ride from briefing sheet to legislation. Following publication of the briefing sheets, we made attempts to commission a speedy response from various leading participants in the debate, but they were soon abandoned. All agreed that JMHL readers would prefer commentaries and reflections on the detail of the amendments rather than on what is presently in the public arena. On the presumption (yet another) that the proposed amendments will be published by the time the next issue is being prepared, we give an assurance that they will be considered then. So far as this issue is concerned, we have decided to publish both articles which clearly sit within the term ‘mental health law’, and others which might be viewed as more on the fringes, but presumed to be on matters of interest to the majority, if not all, the JMHL readership. We start off with two articles by Austen Garwood-Gowers, or, to be more honest, one article in two parts. Craftily (admittedly on our suggestion and with our encouragement) negotiating his way around our editorial policy of ‘5000 words maximum’ per article, Dr. Garwood-Gowers in ‘Vindicating the right to bodily security of the incapable in research (Parts 1 and 2)’ casts a knowledgeable, thoughtful, and critical eye over domestic and international provisions regulating research targeted at incapable persons. The trigger for this reflection is of course sections 30 – 34 1 Cm 6305-1 (September 2004) 4 The Report of the Expert Committee ‘Review of the 2 Cm 5538-1 (June 2002) Mental Health Act 1983’ was published by the Department

    Notes on the culture of Broadmoor and other special hospitals, comparison with traditional psychiatric hospitals and the likely problems of whistle-blowing and diagnostic overshadowing within these cultures Diane Carpenter, University of Southampton Introduction These notes have been selected from a wider bibliography as they appear to encapsulate the relevant cultures under examination. The sources are briefly addressed in the text or footnotes. Following the examination of hospital cultures I have included a timeline to help with contextualization. Any outstanding questions I shall endeavour to address in person. The accompanying PowerPoint presentation summarises the issues that these extracts support. Culture in special hospitals / Broadmoor The following list provides examples of the culture within Broadmoor for the period c. 1970s- 1981.1 Its source was based on the evidence of former staff and patients and was televised before publication in book form. Whilst no source is completely without its bias, it is arguably important to take account of the recollections of those who may not traditionally have had a voice. These accounts may then be compared with the findings of official inquiries – where accusations have equally been levelled of bias towards the staff and the system. Accusations by patients of staff pilfering visitor’s gift. Key culture: keys represent power Admission procedure (described by Goffman as a ritual) involved stripping, bathing and isolating new patients).

    Available online at www.worldscientificnews.com WSN 22 (2015) 108-119 EISSN 2392-2192 Gender, Masculinity, Contemporary History and the Psychiatric Secure Estate: Back to the Future? Jason L. Powell* and Paul Taylor University of Chester, Parkgate Road, Chester, CH1 4BJ, United Kingdom *E-mail address: [email protected] ABSTRACT In contemporary history, the use of gendered treatments for women with mental health issues in the psychiatric secure estate is an issue of major concern in Great Britain. This paper examines women and gender in the psychiatric secure estate from a structural analysis drawing influence from Connell’s (1987) theoretical and conceptual work on hegemonic masculinity. Bio-psychological approaches have almost dominated academic discussion in relation to women’s incarceration and there is an reflexive need to develop other sociological frameworks on hegemonic masculinity because dominant bio-psychological models have failed to identify underlying configurations which combine to oppress women whilst simultaneously reproducing consequences of masculinity and power within institutional structures. Keywords: bio-psychology, power, gender, secure units, masculinity 1. INTRODUCTION The relationship between women and mental illness/disorder is complex and multifaceted. It has a long history. This relationship is constructed through multiple forces, and it’s nature and character comes to be known through three primary themes; discursive World Scientific News 22 (2015) 108-119 controls shaping the relationship, legal responses to female offending and the administrative management of women said to be suffering with diagnosed mental illness and disorders. The culmination of discursive, legal and administrative behaviours render the female subject to sanctions and societal opinions which continue to mis-recognise women who seriously or violently offend beyond bio-medical paradigms.

  • Theory of Mind and Mentalizing Ability in Antisocial Personality Disorders with and Without Psychopathy
    Psychological Medicine, 2004, 34, 1093–1102. f 2004 Cambridge University Press DOI: 10.1017/S0033291704002028 Printed in the United Kingdom Theory of mind and mentalizing ability in antisocial personality disorders with and without psychopathy M. D O L A N* AND R. F U L L A M University of Manchester, UK; Bolton Salford and Trafford Mental Health NHS Trust, UK; the Edenfield Centre, Bolton Salford and Trafford Mental Health NHS Trust, UK ABSTRACT Background. The literature on Theory of Mind (ToM) in antisocial samples is limited despite evidence that the neural substrates of theory of mind task involve the same circuits implicated in the pathogenesis of antisocial behaviour. Method. Eighty-nine male DSM-IV Antisocial Personality Disordered subjects (ASPDs) and 20 controls (matched for age and IQ) completed a battery of ToM tasks. The ASPD group was categorized into psychopathic and non-psychopathic groups based on a cut-off score of 18 on the Psychopathy Checklist: Screening Version. Results. There were no significant group (control v. psychopath v. non-psychopathic ASPD) dif- ferences on basic tests of ToM but both psychopathic and non-psychopathic ASPDs performed worse on subtle tests of mentalizing ability (faux pas tasks). ASPDs can detect and understand faux pas, but show an indifference to the impact of faux pas. On the face/eye task non-psychopathic ASPDs showed impairments in the recognition of basic emotions compared with controls and psychopathic ASPDs. For complex emotions, no significant group differences were detected largely due to task difficulty. Conclusions. The deficits in mentalizing ability in ASPD are subtle.

  • A Preliminary Review of Cyber-Deception Factors: Offerings from a Systematic Review Anoushka P.A
    A Preliminary Review of Cyber-Deception Factors: Offerings from a Systematic Review Anoushka P.A. Anderson, Jo Bryce, Carol A. Ireland, * Jane L. Ireland ABSTRACT The current paper aims to provide a preliminary exploration of the characteristics associated with cyber-deception, by focusing on motivations for engagement and the psychological characteristics of those perpetrating such behaviour. It aims to further outline gaps in the literature and suggest what areas any potential model of cyber-deception could include to benefit future research. A systematic search of 11 databases was undertaken, with additional manual searching for relevant journals and sources. This was followed by data extraction and thematic analysis. A total of 21 studies were identified as meeting eligibility criteria. Six motivational themes emerged (i.e. acquiring attention and sympathy; a response to negative childhood experiences; preserving identity and presenting your ‘true’ self; to cause intentional harm and to pursue personal enjoyment; to exploit materially; deception as a stress-reliever in response to life strain), and one individual theme (i.e. perpetrator personality). Perpetrator motivation included a varied range of factors, with more static characteristics (i.e. personality) less well captured in the literature. Future research could determine if psychological differences are of value or if the area is better understood through consideration of more dynamic (motivational) factors. Key words: Cyber-detection; Motivation; Attention; Preserve identity; Harm; Enjoyment INTRODUCTION Deception is defined as a deliberate act with the intent to mislead (Buller & Burgoon, 1996), with online deception the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to commit such acts (McGuire & * Corresponding author: [email protected] Salus Journal 88 Volume 7, Number 1, 2019 Dowling, 2013) and thus captured using the term cyber-deception.

Thesis Abstract Forensic mental health (FMH) is described as a complex and challenging specialism to work in. The experiences of staff working within FMH settings have important influences on the quality of care provided to patients. This thesis explored the experiences of both multidisciplinary staff and clinical psychologists. A meta-synthesis of international qualitative studies was conducted to explore the experiences of staff working in FMH settings. Sixteen papers were synthesised, revealing five themes: 1) The impact of safety; 2) Psychological and emotional impacts; 3) Trying to maintain control; 4) The double-edged sword of support; and 5) A special insight into humanity. The findings point to the importance of understanding how staff manage the impacts of working in FMH settings in order to develop effective support systems. Eight clinical psychologists were individually interviewed to explore their lived experiences of compassion satisfaction when working in UK forensic mental health settings.
