摘要

尽管大规模枪击事件在美国枪支死亡人数中所占比例很小,但在犯罪新闻报道中所占的比例却不成比例,无数美国人的恐惧程度远远超过了实际风险。本文试图澄清一些广泛存在的困惑,比如大规模枪击究竟是什么,发生的频率有多高,以及在过去几年中是否呈上升趋势。在讨论了与测量流行率有关的一些方法问题之后,提出了几个可靠的大规模枪击数据来源所显示的趋势。文章最后简要讨论了传染问题,以及预期最近大规模枪击事件的激增将持续下去是否合理。

Trends in U.S. Mass Shootings: Facts, Fears and Fatalities
Although representing a rather small percentage of gun deaths in the United States, mass shootings receive a disproportionate share of crime news coverage, with the fears of countless Americans at a level well above the actual risk. This article attempts to clarify some of the wide-ranging confusion regarding what exactly is a mass shooting, how often they occur, and whether they have been on the rise over the past several years. After discussion of some methodological issues associated with measuring prevalence, trends exhibited in several reliable data sources on mass shooting are presented. The article concludes with a brief discussion of contagion and whether it is reasonable to expect that the recent spike in mass shootings will persist.
