Using videocameras, the authors detected 134 assaults by 40 of 113 patients treated over a 23-month period on a 14-bed intensive ward for violent psychiatric patients. After assailants were approached by an interviewer to obtain their explanations for the assaults, investigators analyzed the content of their responses by assigning up to four themes to each response. Most frequently the patient refused to be interviewed. Assailants who cooperated often claimed to have been playing with the victim, complained of verbal abuse, or said they wanted to stop objectionable behaviors by the victim. The results suggest that assailants may perceive some behaviors by victims as provocations.
通过摄像机,作者在一个有14张床位的重症病房,对113名暴力精神病患者进行了为期23个月的治疗,期间发现其中40名患者实施了134次攻击行为。在采访者与攻击者接触以获取他们对攻击行为的解释后,调查人员通过为每个回答分配多达四个主题来分析他们的回答内容。最常见的情况是患者拒绝接受采访。配合的攻击者经常声称是在与受害者玩耍,抱怨受到言语辱骂,或者表示他们想阻止受害者的不良行为。结果表明,攻击者可能将受害者的某些行为视为挑衅。
