Abstract

Society often considers violent people to be mentally ill, and a significant number of patients exhibit violent behavior. For the assessment of violent individuals, a thorough understanding of the complex biopsychosocial causes of violence is required. This paper critically reviews recent investigations of the multiple causes of violence to clarify those aspects that can be helpful to clinicians in their inquiries.
