This research focuses on the experience of the perpetration of a murder in a
population composed of four women. For this study, we used the qualitative
research method of Amedeo Giorgi. We focused the study analysis in the cognitive
processes, associated with the decision to commit the murder, and in the
context in which this phenomenon emerges. The results are consistent with the
perspective of murder as a multifactorial phenomenon. We have further found
that the resolution of the homicide not always precedes the practice thereof.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
