Episode 318 - Predicting and Preventing Mass Shooting w/ Dr. James Meindl

One of the most exciting parts of any conference (shout out to BABAT!) is getting to see something new. And this week, we're bringing that something new to the podcast with a behavioral hypothesis as to how fame-seeking mass shooters develop behavioral repertoires that can lead to tragedy. We're excited to bring Dr. James Meindl's work in this area to our audience as an amazing example of how behavior analysis can be supportive in the treatment of socially relevant causes. We review what information exists in the prediction of mass shooting behavior, how many of the reported patterns may function behaviorally, and, most importantly, what this could mean in the prevention of mass shooter behaviors actually resulting in violence.

This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
