Thank you!
Thank the fucking lord above. Jesus that was awful watching. 🤦🏻♂️
@@kalubdailey6257 jeez.. don't have to be so rude lol, just click off the video instead of putting others down.
thanks for this video, I'm looking into forensics and this helps a lot!
I absolutely love this video! thank you for posting this!! 💜
Hi Kayla!! Great video. As someone who works in this field, I urge you to STAY BOTH KNOWLEDGEABLE AND CONFIDENT!! Read everything you can get your hands on. Apply science to real-life in a practical way. There's A LOT of BS out here, from the criminals AND the staff. Know your stuff, and don't let anyone disrespect you.
I’m currently a senior in high school and I love the study of human behaviors and what motivates people do act on the things they do, would that be more of a degree for forensic psychology or criminal psychology, if neither which other degree would be helpful for my future?
You should look into criminology as well. Otherwise, forensic psychology and criminal psychology are good choices
Forensic anthropologist, solve cases such as skeletal bones on how they died, etc. You may go to the crime scene to see the remains as evidence.
understanding human behavior and why human behave the way they do is so satisfying, especially that our lives involves social interactions. On a more broad level, i will recommend that you study Psychology with Sociology. Psychology will help you understand people in their private being while sociology will allow you to understand people in group process.
Thank you thank you thank you!!!!! I’ve been trying to find the difference between criminology and forensic psychology for so long and you just made it so clear here😭. I recently change my major from nursing to psychology A.S. and later on I will get my bachelor in Forensic Psycology, again thank you so much💕
I literally just did the same thing.
I am a senior in high school. I want to become a forensic psychologist, what should I be doing now? What should I do in the future in terms of classes and jobs/internships?
Emily Kendrick I am a senior as well trying to be in the same field, I recommend seeing if a police department near you does any programs. I do programs with my local PD to atleast get an insight on this field.
Just found your channel ! I loved it girl ! I’m double majoring in criminal justice and psychology! I’m attending a CC than a UC so right now I was thinking about going into political science but I think you might of changed my mind. There’s so much I needed to know ! Thank you!!!
Alejandra Hernandez I was a poli sci major at UCSD and really liked it, I also started at CC. Great choice, you are saving loads of money lol
thanks for clarifying! I've always said I wanted to do forensic psychology because I didn't know there was a difference, but I think criminology better describes what I want to pursue one day
Thank you so much! i am a high school senior as well trying to decide my. This cleared so much up for me:)
Thanks i needed to know the difference I like criminology better
I just got to this video but I’m so glad to see that there were other people in the same boat as me a couple of years ago! I’m planning on going into criminology because I’ve always been fascinated by analyzing behaviors. This video was extremely helpful, thank you!
heyy how’s it like to study criminology? and can you kindly explain what’s the difference between criminology and criminal psychology? do you get to learn about what motivates criminals to commit crimes and their behavior in criminology?
Thanks for the vid. Btw your skin looks gorgeous.
Hello! I'm extremely interested in pursuing a career in forensic psychology and/or criminology. What should I do in the future in terms of classes and jobs/internships?
Thanks for this video I literally just emailed my admissions counselor and said can you switch my major from criminology to forensic psychology. And then you popped up and this confirmed my interest in this field!
I am studying psychology and sociology and I am particularly interested in crime and deviance. I volunteered with offenders before and it wasn't so bad. I think I am mentally deficient in that whatever someone has done or will do it doesn't bother me, I don't get scared and am incapable of hating someone but I want to sculpt that into a strength. Just because I was apathetic and numb when my best friend confessed to her crimes, or when I had to save a life of a friend who attempted suicide doesn't mean I don't have a place in society. I was thinking though if I should become a forensic psychologist or study crime through a sociological perspective as I seem to prefer sociology to psychology so far.
HI! I really really hope you're able to read this. I'm currently a college freshman pursuing a major in psychology. I've actually just learned about forensic psychology and I think it's something that I would like to do in the future since I'm passionate in both law and aspects of the mind and how it works. To get further into my goal of becoming a clinical forensic psychologist, I wanted to ask a few questions. Do you think doing a psychology major along with a minor in forensic investigation and policing is a good option, or a minor in criminal justice? I was also thinking whether or not I should double major in psychology and criminal justice. Please let me know what you think! I think you're input will give me lots of clarity. Thanks so much, and btw I love your videos!
So, I can study criminology psychology without studying criminal justice? Thanks for the video
Yes! You'll more than likely take classes that will go more into the criminal justice process anyway
this helped so much thank youuuuu
You have a healthy look about things. The world is getting better because of educated people like you.
Hello Kayla Danielle, Thanks for the enlightenment. I intend to enroll for Masters in Criminology and Forensic Psychology. Can you help me with these title suggestions, please?
Where was this video back in 2016 when I was a senior in high school because this would've helped me Alot😩 Thank you for this I'm 24 years old and I'm going back to school started with my associates in Human Services I love both Criminology and Forensic Psychology I'm kinda leaning towards criminology because of the different theories is interesting
Thank you! Very helpful!!
hey kayla, is there a real difference between forensic and criminal psychology? i did look it up and i guess it's just the goals (criminal psychologists: finding out why the perpotrator did what they did) of the two careers but i need a little bit of help from a forensic psychology major just to clarify that.
I was taught that the main difference is Criminal Psychologists typically get involved during the crime, and Forensic Psychologists become involved once the crime has already been committed. Hope that makes sense!
@@kayladanielle2358 yes! thank you so much!
I am still only a sophomore in highschool, but I want to become a forensic psychiatrist. I'm thinking about a major in the sciences (maybe chem?) then a minor in one of these subjects. I'm still figuring things out but um you know. Watching videos to help lol
thank you for this video! both sides sound so interesting so i'm not sure which i would like to go into more but i'm really interested in becoming a clinical forensic psychologist. do you know if being diagnosed with a mental illness would negatively affect getting a job in psychology? thank you :)
It does not! Mental illnesses are more common and more widely talked about now. As long as you're able to complete your job you should be okay
@@kayladanielle2358 awesome thank you!
I was going crazy about this then just decided to major in forensic psych and minor in criminology. Now I’m thinking if I should have majored in criminology
May I ask what school did u go to was it online or in person also do u need a masters to get a good job in this field?
Aaah youre so close to 1000 subs!!
I really wanna be a Behavioral Analyst for the FBI’s BAU so do you know any good colleges in the US for me?
I have a PDF attached in the comments of my Forensic Psychology Q&A video that has a list of schools in it
I feel like your dream came from criminal minds
Hey, me too! (:
malice catastrophe years maybe
@malice catastrophe yeah and they’re mostly cold cases and it’s a desk job.
I am high school senior trying to figure out which field would be the best for me. I am interested in the crimes, why people commit these violent crime, the recidivism rate for people who commit these violent crimes but at the same time I also want to look at the mental health of these offenders. Like you mentioned that anyone in any area in psychology can be a forensic psychologist, so should I focus on the criminology side of it first as I can choose the path of forensic psychology after any area in psychology later?
can relate!! what did you decide then?
Hi so I am interested in knowing the mind of a person with mental and personality disorder and I want to treat them a and understand them better but I am also open to talk with criminals who have some psychological relation. So can i.choose clinical along with criminology, will I be able to treat non criminals with pd as well as criminals with pd??
Should i go for criminology and forensic science BA) or Criminology and physcology BSC) pleaseee reply which one is better
what should i major in if i want to be a supervisory special agent?
so if i were to do more things of like the psychology behind like serial killers and other crimes, it would be best for me to go into criminology?
no, criminology mainly looks at sociological factors and statistics behind crime and a lot of the modules (at least in my uni) overlap with sociology. forensic psychology is what really looks into the psyche of a criminal's mind and the psychological reasons for it + overall psychology - later in life you'll be able to work in evaluating criminals' mental state in various ways for various things. criminology students can really only work in the police force or social services or perhaps surveillance, it doesn't really give you an exact job to do. with forensic psychology the degree is normally accredited with the local psychology organisations too so you can work in many psychology related jobs. hope this helped :) x
I really want to go into this career. I really enjoy criminology and crimes etc. But what exactly do forensic psychologist do.
It depends on the type of Forensic Psychologist. For example, I plan on becoming a Clinical Forensic Psychologist. So part of my job will be conducting assessments to determine if a criminal is fit to stand trial
Thank you so much for this. I'm a high-school senior and I was thinking of taking criminology. Also I was wondering if you have and affordable colleges you could suggest? Because I'm a little confused on which college to take.
If you are wanting to stay where you are, you can search schools that are in your area and compare the prices. That would be the best way to find a school that is more affordable
@@kayladanielle2358 what if its abroad?
I want to do it but I don't know which one exactly I want to do sigh
im gonna be a 16 year old attending college, and even though it’s gonna be hard i’ve got it together, majoring in Forensic Psychology and minoring in criminal justice
How did you get to college at 16??
@@weirdgeek6801 I was 16 too when I got into college I m in 2nd year now and 17
Good for you!! Amazing!
@@weirdgeek6801 it works in countries like the UK. School ends at 16 and you have an option to continue or go to college.
Hi ma'am in your country do criminologists go into becoming police officers? or do they have their own function and job?
really hope u to answer my question i'm still pursuing my study in law, is that possible for me to continue my master's study in criminology?
You should be able to. I would check and see what the requirements are for the Masters program to see if you meet them
@@kayladanielle2358 thanks for your kindness dear.. will be waiting😁
can you please use external mic beacuse external voices making hindrance in your vocals
Would it be possible to graduate with a Bachelors with Criminology but go into forensic psychology studies and/or masters schools for forensic psychology?
asking the real questions!!!
i am also curious about this!
Hey! Wish I could talk to you one on one. I’m going for a ba in forensic psychology and I’m looking for tips n such
You can DM me on any of my social media pages!
I want to go into this field but work with cases about children who were abused and neglected and i guess in general work on cases and bring evidence, interview/ law etc. Just unsure what career is this 😆 Do you think just majoring in criminology is the right one?
I believe that is a criminal investigator
oh man im confused im tryna figure out whats the differences between 'criminology and psychology' and 'forensic psychology'
forensic psychology is psychology in the context of law, and the application of the science and profession of psychology to questions and issues relating to law and the legal system. out of all the options here it involves the widest range of jobs. there are many things you can do as a forensic psychologist and a bunch of places to work in - courtrooms, hospitals, police station, researcher + many more. criminal psychology focuses on abnormal behavioral patterns and studying thoughts, feelings and behaviors of criminals. crimonlogy focuses on studying causes of crimes and ways to prevent it. there's obviously a much more depth explanation to these subjects and I could link you a few videos that explain it in a more concise way than I could! i might be slightly wrong about some of these, but that's the knowledge on these subjects I have atm, as I'm also trying to decide on what I want to do for college. hope this helps a little!
@@diyyaseedatheyy what did you decide for college then? and can you please share links of those videos with mee
@@salehajamali2321 hiii, i still have a year left of school, but forensic pscyhology is still definitely my main choice as of now. i reccomend some of these: kzhead.info/sun/q8Obg9OcpWOpoXk/bejne.html kzhead.info/sun/e5dmoJWJpXqoiaM/bejne.html kzhead.info/sun/e7GJedqHjKing3k/bejne.html kzhead.info/sun/oNxvj6eOn6Bqgqs/bejne.html nice pfp! 💜
Psychology is a subject or object? Objectivity can prove scientifically! Then how you prove psychology scientifically without witness and evidence.?!
What about a forensic psychiatrist?
A forensic psychiatrist is someone who went to medical school but specialized in Forensic Psychiatry
I would like to study both criminology and forensic psychology, I'd like to work for our police in these fields. I think forensic psychology is not really widely acknowledged field in my country and it would be amazing if I had the chance to get more people go down that road. And criminology is another thng that interests me Say, is it worth it? Studying both criminology and forensic psych?
Just Julie hey just wondering if you found any answer to this question I’m interested in the same things and I’m considering studying both and if it’s worth it ?
@@megkelly5455 hi :) No, I haven't found any particular answer, but I have come to think that it is worth it. Criminology can help you in law enforcement and it is actually a must. Forensic psychology, or psych in general, is a very helpful thing no matter where you are and who you're dealing with. It not only helps you to deal woth problematic people, but by studying it and getting to understand the mindsets of people, it strengthens your own mind. Though some may view psychology as a nonsense, it's something we're dealing with every day, every minute of our lives. And the forensic field just helps you deal better with criminals and all that stuff if you want to go down that road.
I think it is worth it because you'll be able to study issues in two different realms. Criminology focuses on the why and the social aspect, while forensic psychology focuses on the person as an individual
So to be a criminologist what should I major in?
criminology i believe
to become a crime scence investigator, are you supposed to major in criminology?
Yes
💗💗💗
Is Criminology and Criminal Psychology the same thing?
heyy i was wondering if you found the answer to this
.....and!..... Umm?!.....Let me think!....?!...
What if you’re interested in both also which one is more a research side. I want to study criminals and understand their mind and how they are different than us and why they do the acts they do. Like I’m interested more on the mental health side and answering the big questions .??
They both have research components to it. I would suggest attending a school that is more research focused
@@kayladanielle2358 Ok thank you!! Would you know of any schools. I’m struggling choosing schools for what I’m looking for, I only know of John Jay ??
Hey hun. I’m starting school in fall for psychology. Could you dm me I have a few questions ☺️☺️
Hey I’m not sure how to dm on here but shoot me an email or a DM on one of my social media if you can!
I just want to ask you that is there scope for forensic science in your country and what is the procedure for taking admission in your country colleges...is there surety of job .....Iam in 12th class now from India so. Please gude me
Hey, you commented 3 years ago. We're you able to get the answer?
Next time maybe turn off the jet engine.
She gave a disclaimer in the beginning that the AC was going to be running. You probably should have clicked off then.
@@westindy28 I don't think you know what a disclaimer is, but ok. Nah it was an interesting video.
Your intro is to long, other than that video is good 👍👍
