Abstract
Mass murder is commonly associated with context-specific motives and related ideological variables. Major contextual factors include workplace-related disputes, gender-related violence, and even racism. However, there is no one nomothetic “profile” that can be rendered from studying cases of mass murder. They are diverse in their individual traits, methods, and motives. They come from all nations, cultures, and economic backgrounds; they use all manner of weapons with very different levels of skill; and they do not all want the same thing. Mass murder is a behavioral expression of a personal motive, often ideological in origin, and it is in no way represented by a typical offender type.
