| '''<big>Examining the Psychological and Biological Factors in Serial Killers</big>''' | |
| Exploring the dynamic relationship between the psychological and biological underpinnings of serial killers' behavior reveals a chilling yet fascinating aspect of criminal behavior from a scientific lens. The mind of a serial killer holds great mystery in terms of what drives them to commit the heinous acts they do. The same intriguing question from forensic psychologists, criminologists, and neuroscientists alike is what drives someone to commit such heinous acts repeatedly, often with a detached lack of remorse or disgust of their own actions? Delving into the depths of their psyche and the neural circuit that controls their behavior is able to explain a complex tapestry of genetic predispositions, environmental influences, and cognitive states.[[File:Frontal lobe animation.gif|thumb|Wikimedia Commons.

| A '''serial killer''' (also called a '''serial murderer''') is a person who [[Murder|murders]] three or more people, with the killings taking place over a significant period of time between them. The serial killers' psychological [[gratification]] is the [[Motive (law)|motivation]] for the killings, and many serial murders involve sexual contact with the victims at different points during the murder process. The [[Federal Bureau of Investigation]] (FBI) states that the motives of serial killers can include anger, thrill-seeking, financial gain, and [[attention seeking]], and killings may be [[Modus operandi|executed as such]]. The victims tend to have things in common such as, [[demographic profile]], appearance, gender or [[Race (human categorization)|race]]. The FBI will focus on a particular patterns that the serial killers follow throughout their murders. They will then use on the patterns they find for key clues into finding the killer along with their motives. Although a serial killer is a distinct classification that differs from that of a [[Mass murder|mass murderer]], [[spree killer]], or [[Contract killing|contract killer]], there are overlaps between them. | A '''serial killer''' (also called a '''serial murderer''') is a person who [[Murder|murders]] three or more people, with the killings taking place over a significant period of time between them.
