Abstract

This research paper contains the definition of serial killing, case studies of serial killing, describes how they differ from other similar murders, and discusses the key factors and motivations that determine whether a serial killing is successful or not. Finding and analyzing the criminological factors and motivations that result in the commencement of serial killing is the main purpose of the research paper. The purpose of the research paper is to identify the criminological factors and motivations that result in serial killers. Serial killing is distinct from other similar types of murder, hence its motivations and contributing elements differ from those of other types of murder. Therefore, a psychopath with a potent Id is required in order to conduct a heinous crime like serial murders. Then, in accordance with the behaviorism theory, a person's lack of moral development, dissatisfaction and rage under strain theory, tagging by society under the labelling theory, mixed with pornography and drugs, lead them to become psychopaths and powerful Id bearers. In conclusion, it can be said that psychopathy and the role of Id's in psychological theory are the main causes of serial killing, and behaviorism theory, strain theory, labelling theory, pornography, drugs, and alcohol, among other things, contributed to a person's development into a psychopath and gave them the ability to commit terrible crimes like serial killing.
