Abstract:
Elderly persons are not often thought of as being associated with criminal activity. Among the elderly for both genders, however, the percentage of persons arrested in the United States for violent crimes increased significantly from 1995 to 2013, this increase being due to more aggravated assault arrests. Epidemiological studies on antisocial personality disorder and FBI crime statistics provide an understanding of sociopathy and directed aggression in the geriatric population. This chapter addresses the risk factors for violent behavior among elderly persons and provides U.S. crime data for

Abstract:
Aggression and violence are often overlooked in the aging population. Changes in personality, behavior, and mood are well known in psychiatric disorders, but they are also seen in neurologic conditions, often where there is alteration in brain chemistry, as in metabolic disorders; or alteration in brain structure, as in degenerative disorders, strokes, subdural hematomas, and tumors; or with alteration in brain function, as in epileptic and nonconvulsive status. This chapter provides an overview of specific behaviors, the underlying neurochemistry and pathophysiology behind specific disorders,

While the procedures are presented for adult depression, many adaptations to different populations and settings are discussed: for pregnancy and the postpartum period, adolescents, the elderly, medical patients, and patients with dysthymia, bipolar

Abstract:
The chapter describes how to take a comprehensive psychiatric history with adults. It explains that the purpose of the psychiatric history is to elicit the necessary information to make sense of the presenting problems, determine whether a diagnosis can be made, and to try and understand the origins of the presenting problems in a particular individual (the ‘formulation’). It also emphasizes the role the interview has in establishing a therapeutic and psychoeducational relationship. The chapter gives practical guidance on preparing for the interview and what questions to ask. Recommendations a

Abstract:
Growth in the size and wealth of the United States’ elderly population, coupled with a trend toward increasing patient autonomy, has created an environment for increased conflict in end-of-life decision-making. This chapter explores the required elements for making decisions at the end of life, including determination of medical decision-making capacity. Also discussed is the development of the legal reasoning that governs situations involving elderly patients who lack the capacity, but retain the right, to make medical decisions. The chapter describes the utility of the advance care planning

Abstract:
Attempted and completed suicide among older adults are global public health challenges of escalating significance. This chapter presents epidemiological data on such behaviours, and addresses the risk factors in the domains of mental health, personality, physical health and functioning, social factors (e.g. life events and social support) and neurobiological mechanisms, as derived from retrospective (mainly psychological autopsy [PA] studies) and prospective case-control studies. Suicide prevention initiatives in the elderly have taken a great stride forward in the past decade based on better

Abstract:
Books V and VI of Tacitus' Annals, when complete, carried the narrative of Tiberius' reign from AD 29 to 37. Unfortunately, most of Book V has been lost, and, with it, Tacitus' account of the sensational events that led to the execution on 18 October in AD 31 of Aelius Sejanus. Nevertheless, Annals VI contains a fascinating variety of incidents both at Rome and on Capri, to which Tiberius had retired permanently in AD 27. But, in addition to all the material that portrays Tiberius in a highly unfavourable light, there is much in Annals VI that shows a very different side to his character. Wher

This practical manual is for clinicians who care for patients with concussions. The effects of concussions are a recognized problem in the medical community and among the general public. Most people recover well from concussions, but a substantial minority does not. Most clinicians, however, do not have specific training in how to evaluate and treat concussion patients who do not make a rapid and complete recovery.

Abstract:
This chapter examines private elder care in a broader context of constructed kinship relations by focusing on Mexicana elder care workers in Santa Barbara, California. More specifically, it considers the case study of Cecilia Ramos, a worker who forms part of a family care group and who literally and figuratively “extends” kinship to her ward. Before discussing Cecilia's case, the chapter provides an overview of the evolving range of elder care in Santa Barbara. It also reviews the literature on domestic work and the role that personalism continues to play within the occupation, especially as
