It's Really About Sex: Same-Sex Marriage, Lesbigay Parenting, And The Psychology Of Disgust, Richard E. Redding
It's Really About Sex: Same-Sex Marriage, Lesbigay Parenting, And The Psychology Of Disgust, Richard E. Redding
Working Paper Series
The effects of gay and lesbian parenting on children has been the touchstone issue in much of the recent state litigation on same sex marriage, with opponents of same sex marriage arguing that there is a rational basis for denying marriage rights to gays and lesbians because the central purpose of marriage is procreation and childrearing, but that children are harmed or disadvantaged when raised by gay or lesbian parents. To interrogate this claim, I critique the social science research that informs the concerns frequently expressed about the possible negative effects of lesbigay parenting on children's emotional, psychosocial, and sexual …
Of Apples And Trees: Adoption And Informed Consent, Ellen Wertheimer
Of Apples And Trees: Adoption And Informed Consent, Ellen Wertheimer
Working Paper Series
This article argues that the doctrine of informed consent should apply to the process of adopting a child. There is substantial evidence that all adopted children are at higher risk of learning disabilities and mental health problems than nonadopted children. The article first summarizes the social science evidence demonstrating these risks and discusses some of the reasons why more extensive studies have not yet been done. The article then turns to the law of informed consent as created and applied in the contexts of medicine and law, and concludes that informed consent doctrine should apply to the process of adoption. …
The Brain-Disordered Defendant: Neuroscience And Legal Insanity In The Twenty-First Century, Richard E. Redding
The Brain-Disordered Defendant: Neuroscience And Legal Insanity In The Twenty-First Century, Richard E. Redding
Working Paper Series
Brain-damaged defendants are seen everyday in American courtrooms, and in many cases, their criminal behavior appears to be the product of extremely poor judgment and self-control. Some have a disorder in the frontal lobes, the area of the brain responsible for judgment and impulse control. Yet because defendants suffering from frontal lobe dysfunction usually understand the difference between right and wrong, they are unable to avail themselves of the only insanity defense available in many states, a defense based on the narrow McNaghten test. “Irresistible impulse” (or “control”) tests, on the other hand, provide an insanity defense to those who …

What Do Juvenile Offenders Know About Being Tried As Adults? Implications For Deterrence , Richard E. Redding
Working Paper Series
An underlying assumption in the nationwide policy shift toward transferring more juveniles to criminal court has been the belief that stricter, adult sentences will act as either a specific or general deterrent to juvenile crime. With respect to general deterrence - whether transfer laws deter would-be offenders from committing crimes - it is important to examine whether juveniles know about transfer laws, whether this knowledge deters criminal behavior, and whether juveniles believe the laws will be enforced against them. The current study is one of the first to examine juveniles' knowledge and perceptions of transfer laws and criminal sanctions. We …
The Bitter Pill Of Empiricism: Health Maintenance Organizations, Informed Consent, And The Reasonable Psychotherapist Standard Of Care, Ellen Wertheimer
The Bitter Pill Of Empiricism: Health Maintenance Organizations, Informed Consent, And The Reasonable Psychotherapist Standard Of Care, Ellen Wertheimer
Ellen Wertheimer
Although adequate for holding most professionals to certain levels of conduct, the doctrine of negligence has traditionally been difficult to apply to treatment decisions in the mental health arena. The reasons offered for this difficulty all appear to revolve around the fact that psychology is still very much a philosophy and not a science, making it difficult to establish a clear standard of care. The advent of managed behavioral health care, with its accompanying emphasis on scientifically supported intervention, promises to rectify this situation. Managed behavioral health care is forcing the field of psychotherapy into changing its fundamental nature, from …
