An Approach to the Psychological Diagnosis of Albert Fish and Jeffrey Dahmer, Notorious Child Molesters
[ send me this paper ]
A 24 page paper analyzing the psychology of child molestation. In the more disturbing cases children are not only abused, they are abducted, sexually and otherwise physically abused, and even killed. Two of the more notorious cases of child molestation were committed by the now notorious killers Albert Fish and Jeffrey Dahmer. These killers had a similar tendency for cannibalism of their victims’ bodies as well. While a precise after-the-fact psychological analysis cannot be made of either, this paper delves into the cannibalistic aspect of these crimes in particular and emphasizes the utilization of standardized psychological methodology such as the multi-axial approach of the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM IV) in attempting such a diagnosis. Bibliography lists 25 sources.
