Lydia Benecke: Kriminalpsychologie des Serienmordes

In her new lecture, the criminal psychologist uses case studies to explain current psychological research findings on serial murder in an informative and entertaining way.

Most people cannot and do not want to imagine killing another person. It therefore seems all the more incomprehensible why a small group of people repeatedly decide to do just that to satisfy their own needs. For decades, research has been carried out into the psychological factors that distinguish people who commit serial murders from others. What motives are behind their actions? What can be done to prevent such acts? Although there has been great social and media interest in serial murders for decades, few people are aware that serial murders have been on the decline internationally for many years. There are also scientifically sound explanations for this.

In her new lecture, criminal psychologist, offender therapist and bestselling author Lydia Benecke uses case studies to explain the latest results of psychological research in an informative and entertaining way and presents the current state of scientific knowledge on the subject of serial murder.
