Midterm Essay Exam 1. What are methods of inquiry and how are they use in criminal investigation?
Methods used in criminal investigation who, what, where, when, why and how. Getting all the facts in a criminal investigation, physical evidence, people, and records. Answer #1. There are several methods of inquiry that can be used in a criminal investigation.
a. authority method- when an investigator relies on the observations and hypothesis derived totally from another source
b. tenacity method- when an investigator draws conclusions that are based on beliefs or superstitions
c. intuition- when an investigator leans …show more content…
There are several ways to investigate these questions. one begins with an observation..
Another method of inquiry is the tenacity method. In this method, beliefs are based on superstition or prior beliefs without question.
The final method of inquiry is the intuition method, in which one believes something because it feels correct or seems to make sense. Oftentimes intuition is based on a single example.
It is the act or process of investigating.
Determining, who, what, where, when, why and how we often begin with an inquiry or a question about something we have observed. We want to know what makes something happen or if two events are related to each Other. There are several ways to investigate these questions. one begins with an observation.. From the observation, a scientist will form a hypothesis. Our hypothesis might be, as said before, that students who spend more time outside get higher scores on standardized tests. A scientist will then establish an experiment in which all variables except one are held constant. The results of the experiment are observed and will either prove or disprove the hypothesis. Either way, the observations made in the experiment will serve to provide a basis for future inquiry and scientific …show more content…
who benefits. Optimal does not mean highest. It means best or most efficient level of some thing that can vary in strength or intensity over a range of values. If you have zero blood pressure, it should be clear that you are a corpse. If you have the highest blood pressure ever recorded, it should be clear that you are probably close to becoming a corpse. Optimal blood pressure is the very best blood pressure you can have given your present activity level, for maintaining proper blood flow with minimal stress on the circulation and the body in general. Think of it this way: more is not always better. An investigator is a person that investigates suspicious claims and events.
A solution is Pareto optimal if there exists no feasible solution for which an improvement in one objective does not lead to a simultaneous degradation in one (or more) of the other objectives. That solution is a nondominated solution. 2. What is the optimal mindset of an investigator and how are the concepts associated with the optimal mindset of an investigator
