    Profiling - what we need to be cautious about profiling. I did 1500 words on it - im not sure how. Does anyone have links to good books on it/url links as i was limited in my scope.

    Cheers

    what do you mean by 'profiling'? Personality tests? Forensic?

    profiling is a useful tool but should be treated with caution - discuss. Title of essay.

    So what have you got already? Why is it useful? Why should it be treated with caution? Have you found any studies giving evidence either way? What do you think yourself? (This isn't an essay-writing service ;) )

    Ha, to be fair JuliusCaesar, I got the impression from the first post that the essay has already been completed - just with a narrow perspective :)
