Manual de clasificacion criminal (2025)

A Proposed Addition to the FBI Criminal Classification Manual

Forensic Examiner, 2007

Behavioral data were located from 27 homicide cases in which fraud, a white-collar crime, occurred either prior to or contemporaneously with each homicide. The homicide cases in this study were classified as fraud-detection homicides because either white-collar criminals themselves, or assassins they hired, killed the individuals suspected of detecting their fraud. The white-collar criminals who committed murder were sub-classified as red-collar criminals.

Classification as a Tool for Research

Studies in Classification, Data Analysis, and Knowledge Organization, 2010

This volume contains revised selected papers from plenary and invited as well as contributed sessions at the 11th Biennial Conference of the International Federation of Classification Societies (IFCS) in combination with the 33rd Annual Conference of the German Classification Society-Gesellschaft für Klassifikation (GfKl), organized by the Faculty of Business Management and Economics at the Technische Universität Dresden in March 2009. The theme of the conference was "Classification as a Tool for Research." The conference encompassed 290 presentations in 100 sessions, including 11 plenary talks and 2 workshops. Moreover, five tutorials took place before the conference. With 357 attendees from 58 countries, the conference provided a very attractive interdisciplinary international forum for discussion and mutual exchange of knowledge. The chapters in this volume were selected in a second reviewing process after the conference. From the remaining 120 submitted papers, 90 papers were accepted for this volume. In addition to the fundamental methodological areas of Classification and Data Analysis, the volume contains many chapters from a wide range of topics representing typical applications of classification and data analysis methods in Archaeology and Spatial Science, Bio-Sciences, Electronic Data and Web, Finance and Banking, Linguistics, Marketing, Music Science, and Quality Assurance and Engineering. The editors would like to thank the session organizers for supporting the spread of information about the conference, and for inviting speakers, all reviewers for their timely reports, and Irene Barrios-Kezic and Martina Bihn of Springer-Verlag, Heidelberg, for their support and dedication to the production of this volume. Moreover, IFCS and GfKl want to thank the Local Organizing Committee,

Limited Predictive Accuracy of the Booklet Category Test in a Criminal Forensic Sample

Applied Neuropsychology, 2013

A known-groups design was used to evaluate the clinical decision rules of the validity indicators of the Booklet Category Test for the detection of malingered neurocognitive dysfunction (MND) in an incarcerated male sample. Participants were 128 inmates who were classified into MND and presumed valid groups using the Slick, Sherman, and Iverson (1999) criteria. While errors on Subtests I and II had the best classification accuracy at 71.1% with 95.1% specificity and 49.3% sensitivity, the associated area under the curve (AUC) indicated only ''acceptable'' discrimination due to poor sensitivity. Logistic regression confirmed that errors on Subtests I and II were the only statistically significant validity indicator. The remaining validity indicators performed poorly with AUCs at < .70, indicating no discriminative power. The effectiveness of the clinical decision rules of the validity indicators in predicting the presence of MND evidenced limited support. A positive finding on Subtest I and II errors was clinically significant in this sample, but negative results revealed no utility. Validity indices composed from different items may yield more effective results among male prisoners referred for neuropsychological evaluation.

Classification in scientific and technical writing

2020

Classification is the rhetorical device closely related to formal definition. The first step in definition is to classify the term being defined. The term is placed in a group whose members have at least one outstanding characteristic in common. This member is differentiated from all other members of the class. In classification, however, the groups rather than individual members are differentiated. The reader is given the important information about the name of the class, the members of the class important for the discussion and basis for classification, often called criterion of difference. The basis of classification always reflects the particular purpose of the writer making the classification, and the basis relevant to one person may well be irrelevant to another.

Scientific classification

Theory, culture & society, 2006

It is often supposed that one of the goods deliv-ered by successful science is the right way of classifying the things in the world. Surely there is something right about this: any body of scientific knowledge will include ways of classifying, and will not serve its intended aims unless the classifications it embodies reflect real differences and similarities in the world. The standard paradigm for such a successful scientific classification is the periodic table of the elements. However, there is also much potentially wrong with the supposition just ...
