Ever wondered what it’s like inside the mind of a burglar? Professor Claire Nee from the University of Portsmouth explains how she’s been watching crime in action to demystify the criminal mind. Professor Nee’s research watches offenders re-enact their crimes in a virtual reality environment to learn about the unconscious processes behind their choices. The idea is that burglars are ‘experts’ in what they do, and by making observations of them at work, we can pre-empt behaviour and help prevent future crimes. Find out about the moral codes the team observed, and hear how they’re using their research to work with insurance and PR companies to help raise our awareness and keep homes and businesses safe. You can find out more about the Department of Psychology here – https://www.port.ac.uk/about-us/structure-and-governance/organisational-structure/our-academic-structure/faculty-of-science-and-health/department-of-psychology Professor Claire Nee at the University of Portsmouth –https://www.port.ac.uk/about-us/structure-and-governance/our-people/our-staff/claire-nee Using simulated environments to understand criminal decision-making - published in “Property Crime: Criminological and Psychological Perspectives” - https://researchportal.port.ac.uk/portal/en/publications/using-simulated-environments-to-understand-offender-decision-making(5a8aa6ef-d6f7-4870-b05c-0c1e1688aa00).html https://www.routledge.com/Property-Crime-Criminological-and-Psychological-Perspectives-1st-Edition/Burrell-Tonkin/p/book/9781138632479 Using virtual reality in criminological research - https://crimesciencejournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s40163-014-0010-5 Tips to secure your home against thieves - https://www.churchill.com/home-insurance/magazine/home-burglary https://www.churchill.com/home-insurance/tips/home-security-tips-video How to prevent a burglary - https://crimestoppers-uk.org/keeping-safe/home-property-safety/burglary Follow our latest research - https://www.port.ac.uk/research  Solve Magazine- port.ac.uk/solve
