About the Project

A USF-led study team has completed a project on the Psychology of Terrorism for a major U.S. intelligence agency. This project analyzed the behavioral science literature to better understand the causes, motivations and determinants of terrorist behavior. In addition to the final report (www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/nij/grants/208552.pdf), the team produced a 220 page annotated bibliography (http://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/nij/grants/208551.pdf) and conducted training for intelligence professionals.
