DERMATOGLYPHICS AS ONE OF THE METHODS OF PREDICTING THE PROPOSITION TO ILLEGAL ACTION

Abstract

The article presents modern views on the possibilities of using the dermatoglyphic research method for the diagnosis of general phenotypic signs of a person when identifying the corpses of unknown persons, as well as when investigating criminal offenses.Aim of the work. Conduct a review of domestic and foreign publications on the use of the dermatoglyphic method in expert, forensic and forensic psychiatric practice. To formulate the relevance and objectives of the dermatoglyphic research method in order to predict a person's tendency to illegal actions of various degrees of severity.Conclusions. Specific dermatoglyphic features are diagnostic markers of the formation of the basic constitutional properties of the individual, which further determine its leading trends, individual style and ways of responding and behaving in the process of life. The study of the basic structures of personality can be seen as a study of the foundation that precedes the formation of higher levels of personality and largely determines the main direction of first unconscious desire and then conscious human choice, which ultimately determines its fate and social orientation. The search for new psychodermatoglyphic connections will significantly increase the possibilities of this method and accelerate the implementation of scientific developments in the daily practice of clinicians, criminologists, investigators and other specialties.
