Homicide-suicide and domestic homicide without consecutive suicide might be regarded as an extreme form of domestic violence. According to the national crime-register, however, there might be some relevant differences between the perpetrators of the two.
The files of all cases of homicide-suicide (n = 24) and of all cases of domestic homicide without suicide (n = 21), which had been examined at the Institute of forensic medicine in Basle between 1987 und 2006, were compared.
Perpetrators of domestic homicide without suicide were significantly younger, had a poorer educational background and were rather foreigners. About two thirds of the perpetrators of homicide-suicide used a gun compared with only one third of those committing domestic homicide.
Measures as they are known from suicide prevention programmes like limiting the access to lethal instruments like guns might be useful in the case of homicide-suicide, measures for the prevention of domestic homicide should aim at better integration and education of the perpetrators and their family.
杀人和自杀以及非连续自杀的家庭杀人行为可被视为家庭暴力的极端形式。然而，根据国家犯罪登记处的数据，这两种行为的犯罪者之间可能存在一些相关差异。
对1987年至2006年间在巴塞尔法医学研究所检查的所有杀人和自杀案件（n = 24）以及所有非自杀的家庭杀人案件（n = 21）的档案进行了比较。
非自杀的家庭杀人犯罪者明显更年轻，教育背景较差，且多为外国人。杀人和自杀犯罪者中约三分之二使用枪支，而家庭杀人犯罪者中只有三分之一使用枪支。
从自杀预防计划中已知的措施，如限制获取枪支等致命工具，在杀人和自杀案件中可能有用，预防家庭杀人的措施应旨在更好地使犯罪者及其家庭融入社会并对其进行教育。
