愛恨情仇本是人間男女的必經過程,但有些人失去愛情或面臨背叛、情傷,卻會做出激烈的反擊或報復行為。據統計,台灣每2天就發生1起戀愛暴力與情殺案件,平均每月至少有3件的殺人未遂與殺人致死的情殺案件。情殺案件的發生,除了巨觀的社會文化因素、家庭互動因素外,個人的情緒狀態、精神狀態、思考模式及認知外界的過程,更扮演重要的因素,亦即「人格」對於情殺行為的發生與否,有著舉足輕重的影響。本研究關注情殺者的「人格特質」,藉由基氏人格測驗、人際行為量表兩種心理測驗來蒐集較豐富的殺人者之人格資料,以量的分析來了解這類案件加害者的特性:情殺者是否具有特殊的人格特質?情殺者與一般殺人者有何不同的人格? 研究方法為調閱台中及嘉義監獄目前入監服刑為殺人或殺人未遂罪之檔案,將其依犯案原因選取:情殺組60人:受害者為親密伴侶、行凶動機為情殺。一般殺人組60人:受害者為非親密伴侶、行凶動機為非情殺 。一般組:30人,男性無犯罪前科者。上述三組以團體施測方式填寫基氏人格測驗、人際行為量表兩種心理測驗,測驗結果中若一致性太低的樣本將予以剔除,剩餘有效樣本再以SPSS進行統計分析。 由測驗結果統整出情殺者的人格特質有以下幾點:1.攻擊性中等,表達的方式是肢體及被動攻擊兩種方式。2.自我肯定較低,沒有自信心。3.害羞內向,不喜歡交朋友或參加社交活動。4.情緒偏向憂鬱、慮病、迫害感、異常。了解情殺者的人格特質,進而對情殺者做辨識,目的是為了要對情殺行為做預防及提供情殺者合適的矯治方向。本研究進一步提出以下六項特質為對情殺者的辨識:少摯友、多埋怨、高自卑、低情緒、罕溝通、易動粗。由情殺者人格特質而提出對情殺者的矯治建議:1.改善社交技巧:不過度壓抑自己不滿的情緒,越早進行適當的溝通,越早面對親密關係的問題,越能有健全的其他人際關係,就越能避免發生情殺的事件。2.適當的抒發情緒:教導情殺者辨識自己的情緒、敏感到自己情緒的變化,進一步學習如何在自己情緒狀態不佳的情形下適當的抒發情緒。3.提供潛在情殺者適當求助管道,讓意識到自己在持續情緒低落或是有攻擊衝動無法控制的狀況下,有求助的管道。
