Apologies for the size of the picture. Looks pretty good though, doesn't it?

Yeah It does! I'm glad you were able to move it over and add a few more things in it than what I originally had! Cheyenne.brady (talk) 04:12, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

Past Works
Shapiro's other works (not necessarily related to forensic psychology) include the significance as to why visual images are important to psychotherapy, which includes a lot of works by other researchers and psychologists, most notably Sigmund Freud.

He has also provided his insight on the problems that forensic psychologists encounter as expert witnesses in the courtroom, including the psychodynamic mechanisms and criminal responsibility, ethical issues in forensic evaluation and the legal constraints when psychologically evaluating people.

1. This article needs more citations. The information that is listed on here does not have any credible sources listed for where it came from. 2. Shapiro, D. (1999). Criminal Responsibility: A Manual for Practice. Walker, L. E. & Shapiro, D. (2003). Introduction to Forensic Psychology: Clinical and Social Psychological Perspectives. The first of these sources is a manual written by David. L. Shapiro, this should give us some good information about what his research and practice is all about. The second is one of his more recent publications so I figured it would have more good information about what he practices and some of his research. 3. David L. Shapiro is currently living in Florida so I am wondering if we should contact him, maybe to get other information or let him know what we are doing with his wikipedia page.

Is the Vitae that he has listed on his website a good enough source to use for this wikipedia project?

1. This article definitely needs a picture to the name (among other things). I feel can't really identify someone by just knowing certain facts about them, so that's why a picture of Dr. Shapiro would be important to include.

2. Shapiro, D. (1990). Forensic Psychological Assessment: An Integrative Approach Shapiro, D. (1983). Psychotherapy with violent patients: Professional and legal responsibilities of the therapist. American Journal of Forensic Psychology Shapiro was the first person to use certain psychological assessment techniques in the field of forensics, so I feel as if these would be important to include!

3. Do you think the library would be able to come into possession of some these books and articles without having us to dish out money for them? I feel as if they would, but I'm not sure...

I'm 100% all-in with emailing this guy to find out more about him! :)

1. The article needs more background information on him. Where is he originally from and where is he now? What is he currently doing?

2. Shapiro, D. (1970). The significance of visual image in psychotherapy. Psychotherapy: Theory Research and Practice, 7(4), 209-212. This is one of the first things he wrote. I think it would be nice to incorporate how his ideas of evolved or have been supported. Walker, L. E. & Shapiro, D. (2003). Introduction to Forensic Psychology: Clinical and Social Psychological Perspectives.

3.  Are there any topics you would like us to focus on? How helpful would his curriculum vitae be? Maybe that has things on there that he would like to have highlighted? I think we should try to contact him!
