Dr Speculating looks like his BP may be a bit high right now. They need to make sure he does not stroke out before lunch is over.

 

[Shelby1]

at least they're still civilized enough to address each other as SIR.

Every time they use the word "sir" I picture it as code for "you piece of s***"

:floorlaugh:

Need to send JM a t-shirt "I ASK THE QUESTIONS!"

And one for No that's not how it works. for Gus Scercy

No no no there is no guessing now. for Jodi

 

[ohiogirl]

wow does the dr really really wants to know what Juan ius reading from. lol

Maybe it's a Time magazine article. :seeya:

 

[leebee52]

Never mind

 

[Pensfan]

The interpretation of the scored MMPI is relatively easy. Jodi’s score doesn’t qualify for PTSD. In addition, realize that many patients exaggerate their symptoms and Jodi likely did too, but she still didn't “qualify” as having PTSD.

The entire DT is making me ill. All 3 are sitting back there smirking. They really believe JM is stupid and they are smarter. I really don't know how Nurmi and Wilmot sleep at night knowing what they know and seeing Travis's family day after day. God forbid either of them ever have a family member murdered. I morally couldn't defend JA

Nurmi isn't as bad but Wilmot is just weird! So similar to JA in some ways.
Delusional.

 

[leebee52]

My recess will consist of taking a nap. I'm sure JM's voice will wake me up.

 

[Weebles]

What the frig did he bring in his pull along bag if he left the test scores, and the question sheets and things that are pretty relevent on his desk at hom....his teddy and soothie?

 

[Brattigirle]

I'll bet Juan's article isn't from Time Magazine! :rocker:

If that is the case the "good" Doctor may not of read it.:floorlaugh:

 

[Mormon Attorney]

I understand JA's issues with control and controlling the questioning, even her own counsel. But, I have rarely seen a witness fight so much to be in charge of everything in the courtroom. It makes him come across as vested in the outcome rather than just an expert providing an expert opinion.

 

[Sigh Sister]

Every time they use the word "sir" I picture it as code for "you piece of s***"

"And I challenge you to a duel!" :floorlaugh:

'Standard' for self-reporting is a paper test the client/defendant/patient needs to fill out on their own.

Clinicians assess the test in a variety of ways. Many forensic psychologists prefer a data entry method.

Never, ever have I even heard of a psychologist not only transcribing answers on a 'scrap' sheet of paper but also admits to perhaps answering for her - as he did yesterday.

It really is beyond disturbing. It violates every guideline and protocol for psych assessment.

When you use a copyrighted psychological test you buy the booklets with the questions and you buy the answer sheets. That's how the copyright holders make their money from the test. I would imagine that this guy is too cheap to actually buy the products.

 

[BetteDavisEyes]

Wonder how Jodi feels about the doc now that he testified that he thought that she had psychiatric issues.

 

[fabvab]

Oh god.

He piecemeals test questions! He staples together test questions he deems relevant for court. If he isn't actually asking all the questions of any psychological assessment it renders the entire test moot.

I sincerely hope his accreditation to testify as an expert is called into question after this case. I've never seen a shadier psychologist that wasn't also an ad hoc TV personality. JMO

Isn't he suppose to use the actual test that he "purchased"? Won't he get in trouble for xeroxing...and using a legal pad for answers instead of purchasing answer sheets from the testing company? Doesn't it say on professional tests that they are not to be copied???

 

[Linda From New York]

According to Baez (last night on HLM after dark) lies are not important, just the forensic evidence. Did anyone else catch this, or am dreaming. moo

Of course Baez thinks lies are not important!

 

[Observer in AZ]

What does JA have for lunch?

Depends if Sheriff Joe is sticking to the rules she's eating left over breakfast she brings with her BUT if he lets her take a sack lunch I'd guess

Baloney sammich
piece of fruit

 

[JSR]

JA back to her paralegal career with Wilmott

Right ......

The volume of questions is designed to prevent people from trying to beat the test.

There is a reason is it is the most widely used diagnostic test. It made me question this guy when I realized he never used it.

That is understood, however what I was talking about is those who do have problems and maybe adhd among others will get bored/frustrated after 100 or so questions and will just mark anything out of frustration and not an attempt to beat the test
