[WLOs: 1, 2] [CLOs: 1, 2, 3, 4]

Prior to beginning the assignment, review Chapters 4 and 5 in your textbook, where risk factors for criminal behavior are covered from a biological, developmental, and situational perspective. Keeping your own “client” in mind (that you chose for your final paper), please read the chapters and in this assignment please cover the following:

• Assess the role (briefly) that all three (biological, developmental, and situational) perspectives play in influencing criminal behavior.
• Choose one of the three perspectives (biological, developmental, or situational).
• Evaluate the relationship between your chosen perspective and criminal behavior.
• Illustrate a link between your client’s crimes and your chosen perspective based on the client you chose for your Comprehensive Case Study Report Final Paper.
