Kevin Nunes Receives SSHRC Partnership Engage Grant
Congratulations to Kevin Nunes (Psychology) on receiving a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council Partnership Engage Grant in the June 2025 competition. The project, titled “Are Violent Attitudes Relevant for Forensic Psychiatric Patients?”, will work with members of the Forensic Psychiatry Program at St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton to test the reliability and validity of violent attitude measures with forensic psychiatric patients and explore the relevance of violent attitudes for violent behaviour. The results will provide initial evidence about whether and how violent attitudes could be incorporated into research, assessment and practice to reduce violent behaviour.
