Rate My Professor James Ogilvie

Ogilvie completed his Doctor of Philosophy in Clinical Psychology at Griffith University, where he began as a PhD candidate in the School of Psychology. Subsequently, he served as a postdoctoral research fellow at the Griffith Criminology Institute before his current role as Senior Lecturer. His publications address key issues in criminology and psychology, including executive functions and adolescent deviance, student misconduct theories, psychiatric disorders in Indigenous populations, offender detection evasion, incarceration effects on desistance, mental health trajectories in females with justice contact, and adverse childhood experiences among youth offenders. Select key works are: "Neuropsychological Measures of Executive Function and the Prediction of Adolescent Deviance: A 4-Year Prospective Study" (Ogilvie, Stewart, Shum, & Wong, 2011); "The integration of rational choice and self-efficacy theories: A test of two theoretical models of student misconduct" (Ogilvie & Stewart, 2010); "Prevalence of psychiatric disorders for Indigenous Australians: a population-based birth cohort study" (Ogilvie, Tzoumakis, Allard, Chrzanowski, & Stewart, 2021); "Evading Detection: What Do We Know about Men Charged with Extrafamilial Child Sexual Abuse Offences?" (Nicol, Ogilvie, & Harris, 2022); "Timing, frequency, and duration of incarceration and their relationships with desistance from crime: Evidence from an Australian birth cohort" (Sapkota, Dennison, Thompson, Tzoumakis, Allard, Ogilvie, & Stewart, 2024); and "Child Sexual Abuse Victimization Amongst Detained Adolescent Males Who Exhibit Harmful Sexual Behaviours" (Thomsen, Ogilvie, Rynne, Harris, Adams, & Vas, 2024). He supervises higher degree research students on projects such as examining outcomes of the Dangerous Prisoners (Sexual Offenders) Act and longitudinal trajectories of female offending.
