Today's concept comes from the world of attachment theory. Tiggy and James discuss whether maternal deprivation is somewhat outdated and the horrors of a truly intense case. https://www.tutor2u.net/psychology/reference/bowlbys-theory-of-maternal-deprivation?srsltid=AfmBOopWe-6sruPOo4DXiGB_WqaUI-BjWi8in_YvwzL9P_xkZ4hNP9Xb https://www.tutor2u.net/psychology/reference/attachment-romanian-orphan-studies?srsltid=AfmBOop3W-55cyjaW0s9c1uqEzntrCx5ngWhIyDO5l7xVNHXv61YPgVE https://mds.marshall.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1024&context=msjcj https://www.biography.com/crime/samuel-little#early-life https://www.dps.texas.gov/news/new-details-released-unsolved-samuel-little-murders https://www.dps.texas.gov/news/new-details-released-unsolved-samuel-little-murders https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-46384197.amp https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/national/samuel-little-serial-killer/part-two/
This week's episode has a slightly different concept, in the sense that it is medical. However, researchers in the psychology field have found it super fascinating and are using fMRIs to figure out all sorts of questions surrounding the brain. We relate fMRIs to the strange case of Brian Dugan, who was the first to use this type of scan in a criminal case. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diagnostics/25034-functional-mri-fmri https://www.med.wisc.edu/news/psychopaths-brains-differences-structure-function/ https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0149763424003737 https://www.ndcn.ox.ac.uk/divisions/fmrib/what-is-fmri/introduction-to-fmri https://academic.oup.com/scan/article/1/2/158/2362915 https://murderpedia.org/male.D/d/dugan-brian-james.htm https://law.stanford.edu/2009/12/14/neuroscience-and-sentencing-diminished-culpability-and-capacity-for-change/ https://www.science.org/content/article/fmri-evidence-used-murder-sentencing https://www.criminallawlibraryblog.com/fmri_evidence_used_in_murder_sentencing/ https://www.dailyherald.com/20091105/news/strange-mind-of-a-killer-researcher-says-dugan-rare-psychopath/ https://www.steme.org/post/science-behind-psychopathy https://www.nature.com/articles/464340a Agentic State and The Strip Search Phone Call Scam
Welcome back to another episode of Case By Concept. Today we bring you the psychological concept of agentic state and a case so wild that Tiggy had to double check the whole story wasn't a hoax.

Moral Panic and The Mods and Rockers Conflict
In this season finale, Tiggy and James discuss the concept of Moral Panic and the main case that Stanley Cohen based his theory on- the Mods and Rockers conflict.
