TY - JOUR PY - 1988// TI - The relationship between cognitive style and defensive process in the psychopath JO - Criminal justice and behavior A1 - Gacono, Carl B. A1 - Meloy, J. Reid SP - 472 EP - 483 VL - 15 IS - 4 N2 - The authors review Yochelson and Samenow's (1977) model of the criminal mind. They propose a levels hypothesis for understanding the relationship among object relations, defensive operations, and the conscious cognitive-behavioral style of the psychopath. They advocate the addition of an explicit psychodynamic dimension to Yochelson and Samenow's model. A hypothetical case is presented to illustrate the relationship between unconscious defense process and conscious cognitive-behavioral style of the psychopathic personality.
