However, it has been found that there are many ethnic and racial differences among groups. Another study found significant differences in regards to issues such as gender identities and the types of offenses, how victims report crimes, and injury as well as other statistical difference that were present in race in anti-gay victimization crimes (Kuehnle & Sullivan, 2001). Such examples indicate that forensic psychology should fully integrate as much research results on the subject of multiculturalism as can possibly be found. Insights acquired through these means could significantly improve the likelihood that forensic psychology can provide an accurate portrayal of the criminals' psychology. Forensic psychologists would be better able to understand the motivations of criminals from different backgrounds better if they were better able to see things from their perspective.
