Representation of the Serial Killer on the Italian Internet
Copyright policy )Representation of the Serial Killer on the Italian Internet
The representation of serial killers was examined from the analysis of 317 Web pages in the Italian language to study how the psychological profiles of serial killers are described on the Italian Internet. The correspondence analysis of the content of these Web pages shows that in Italy the serial killer is associated with words such as “monster” and “horror,” which suggest and imply psychological perversion and aberrant acts. These traits are peculiar for the Italian scenario.
