Multiple Problems
I would like to suggest this article be flagged as having multiple problems: I am able to make some of these contributions. Anterelic (talk) 22:06, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Copy editing needed: Sentence structure and clarity, Grammar.
 * Lead Section: Needs improvement- current definition may not emphasise key attributes of the topic or the most relevant main disciplinary links (Anthropological_criminology?  Really?  This seems to be a pointed criticism, rather than a helpful linking to other disciplines-  Why not just say that Criminal Psychology is a social darwinist tool of the ruling elite and be done with it?  ;) )
 * Scope: As per the comments section below.  Over emphasis of Criminal Profiling which is covered elsewhere, neglect of other areas (including theoretical developments), little on modern practice (total neglect of risk assessment, intervention design and delivery, contributions to correctional and rehabilitative systems).  This may be a result of US bias.
 * Importance of the article. Should be raised in importance.  I would argue, in line with the comment below (13 May 2013) that this article discusses a broad area of research and applied practice, and includes areas such as Forensic Psychology which is much better represented by its article and considered of higher importance by the Psychology Project.

I have also suggested that Correctional Psychology merge with this article on the the talk page of that article. Anterelic (talk) 22:12, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Scope of Article
Article can use a lot (!) of expansion. As it is, it is way overfocused on Michel Foucault. Not that he doesn't have some importance to the subject. --DanielCD 07:00, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

This article wrongly emphasizes Offender Profiling. Criminal Psychology is very much more than that. It deals with explanations of crime, assessment of offenders and issues of therapy and other interventions. As such it is the scholarly component of the professional discipline of Forensic Psychology and contributes much to Criminology. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.126.194.63 (talk) 13:23, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Roy de la Cruz Tubio
Criminal psychologists are experts in understanding the psychological motivations behind crime. After evaluating crime scenes, pieces of evidence and witnesses, criminal psychologists, also known as profilers, integrate all the material connected with the suspect in a criminal investigation. Criminal psychologists use this information to develop a psychological profile of perpetrator. The profile helps police to identify and understand the nature, patterns and motives of the perpetrator in an investigation, which ultimately helps them catch the criminal. Some criminal psychologists also provide “geographical profiles” which help police identify the most probable area of where the offender lives and works.

Merge with Criminal psychology
And merge that page with Forensic psychology--Ziji 07:09, 22 April 2007 (UTC)


 * If I understand correctly, you are saying merge criminal psychology and forensic psychology? Would it make sense then if an article was made that was an umbrella article for all psychology practices in law enforcement and justice systems as an option for your merger idea? AllieJoGlanzer (talk) 05:11, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

Edit
This article is quite turstworthy, somewhat biased, a little complete, somewhat well-written,and quite accurate. More information from references. Needs some wording changes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.237.17.199 (talk) 22:41, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

I think the content for this article is pretty neutral, however it seems to lack information and a lot of citations. I am afraid this article will be flagged for plagiarism if the proper citations are not made. Perhaps to help lengthen this article you could start by adding in more information in the four roles of criminal psychologists section such as length of school time, experience needed, etc. LexieP1997 (talk) 19:05, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

Copy and paste
These edits appear to take content from this book. Wondering if there is someone who could verify? Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 19:17, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I did text string matches throughout and kept coming back to that book. No doubt you found the source. ;/ --Moonriddengirl (talk) 20:22, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

Shit, I am thinking that removing the links for "French" and "philosopher" would give proper emphasis to the greater relevance of the "Michel Foucalt" link. Perhaps I will make this edit myself someday. Alice Curiouse 20:10, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Significant plagiarism
This page seems to include quite a bit of unsourced material that comes from this https://www.theguardian.com/g2/story/0,3604,404994,00.html Steven Morris article from the Graun. A word or two is snipped here and there, but aside from that it’s the same. The Guardian doesn’t strike me as the most reliable source for information on the origins of this subfield, and it isn’t cited at all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.232.110.219 (talk) 23:48, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
