Abstract

This chapter updates builds upon previous descriptive analyses of lone-actor terrorists, their behaviours, ideological backgrounds and degrees of ‘loneness’. It offers greater conceptual clarity, updated data and a more expansive set of variables from previous analyses. Individual vulnerability indicators examined here include potential indicators of cognitive susceptibility to moral change, and self-selection and social selection into radicalizing settings, notably membership of a social network containing one or more radicalized individual. We also examine exposure settings, attack-preparation behaviours and explore sub-set analyses of the data. The analyses informed by a Risk Analysis Framework which offers a multilevel, integrated meta-model of these events and allows for the synthesis of disparate findings. The analyses provide key insights into the behaviour of lone-actors, which could inform intelligence gathering and investigative practice, as such analyses already do in other crime prevention domains.
更新和组织我们对单独行动恐怖主义的风险和保护因素的认识
这一章的更新建立在先前对孤独行为的恐怖分子、他们的行为、意识形态背景和“孤独”程度的描述性分析的基础上。它提供了更清晰的概念,更新的数据和更广泛的变量集,从以前的分析。这里考察的个人脆弱性指标包括对道德变化的认知易感性的潜在指标,以及进入激进化环境的自我选择和社会选择,特别是包含一个或多个激进化个体的社会网络的成员。我们还研究了暴露设置、攻击准备行为和探索数据的子集分析。风险分析框架提供了这些事件的多层次集成元模型,并允许综合不同的发现。这些分析提供了对孤独行为者行为的关键见解,这可以为情报收集和调查实践提供信息,就像此类分析已经在其他犯罪预防领域所做的那样。
