Wat zijn de ervaren effecten van rap- en zang interventies binnen muziektherapie met betrekking tot emotieregulatie bij forensisch patiënten?

The study of human factors in forensic science informs our understanding of the interaction between humans and the systems they use. The Expert Working Group (EWG) on Human Factors in Forensic DNA Interpretation used a systems approach to conduct a scientific assessment of the effects of human factors …

Scenario’s spelen een belangrijke rol in strafrechtelijke onderzoeken. Ook in het forensisch onderzoek op de plaats delict is de rol van scenario’s niet meer weg te denken. In dit artikel gaan we in op de rol van alternatieve scenario’s die op een later moment in het onderzoek relevant kunnen worden …

Evaluations of forensic observations considering activity level propositions are becoming more common place in forensic institutions. A measure that can be taken to interrogate the evaluation for robustness is called sensitivity analysis. A sensitivity analysis explores the sensitivity of the evaluation …

Detection and identification of body fluids are crucial aspects of forensic investigations, aiding in crime scene reconstructions and providing important leads. Although many methods have been developed for these purposes, no method is currently in use in the forensic field that allows rapid, non-contact …

Crime scene investigations are highly complex environments that require the CSI to engage in complex decision-making. CSIs must rely on personal experience, context information, and scientific knowledge about the fundamental principles of forensic science to both find and correctly interpret ambiguous …

In sexual assault cases, the retrieved DNA quantity and sampling location from the victim’s underwear may provide valuable information for activity level evaluative reporting. DNA can transfer from site to site on an exhibit, or be lost within packaging, complicating interpretation. Experiments are needed …

Adhesive tape is a common piece of evidence that can contain a myriad of traces. Due to its adhesive properties, adhesive tape can potentially collect traces unrelated to the crime or relocate crime-relevant traces. This secondary transfer of traces can have crucial implications for the evaluation at …

Despite major implications for forensic casework, limited research has been done on investigating secondary transfer of latent fingermarks. Adhesive tapes, such as duct tape, can potentially lift latent fingermarks from other surfaces due to their adhesive properties. This study aimed to investigate …
