In this interview we cover Dr. Wyatt’s work as an expert witness and how his interest in behavior analysis developed into a unique perspective on crime, forensic psychology and modern mental health care.
Show Highlights:
-
The title case describes how bullying ultimately culminated into a lethal event. How a behavior analytic view differs from the way traditional psychology might conceptualize such a case.
-
A private life made public, mental deterioration and a tragic act result in the aftermath of an overseas scam, in “He Murdered His Gay Partner.”
-
Some of the limitations in our standard methods for treating mental illness, and especially psychiatry’s intriguing recent history. Ways that a behavior analytic viewpoint could be of benefit in the future for those in need of care.
-
The real-life work of a forensic psychologist as an expert witness and how Dr. Wyatt has navigated through our adversarial legal system by offering critical testimony in numerous cases.
