Various behavioral and neurophysiological models are suggested to objectify and quantify the defense of insanity and to assess dangerousness in someone who is being considered for release from custody. Two cases are presented that show a pattern of specific relationships between traumatic experiences in youth and a later trigger stimulus that releases homicidal action. Until a refined classification system and neurophysiological understanding of sudden aggression can be achieved, forensic psychiatrists should be aware of the psychotic trigger reaction within a clinical psychiatric model.
人们提出了各种行为和神经生理学模型，以客观化和量化精神错乱的抗辩，并评估正在考虑从拘留中获释的人的危险性。本文介绍了两个案例，这些案例显示了青少年时期的创伤经历与随后引发杀人行为的触发刺激之间的特定关系模式。在能够实现对突然攻击行为的完善分类系统和神经生理学理解之前，法医精神病学家应在临床精神病学模型中意识到精神病性触发反应。
