On this variables attitudes, ideas, reasoning, and physical experiences of individuals which weigh more heavily in their ability of resisting recruitment Han to do each or such factors as their age , profession, and gender goes. Here are some of the cryptographic and stats variables; a high level of current distress or dissatisfaction in which are emotional and physical of both, also cultural disillusionment in a frustrated seeker which are the unfulfilled idealism, the lack of an intrinsic religious belief system or value system and family system.

Reach (1979) who interviewed some of the west German terrorist, which he determined that the was no conclusive evidence which was found the assumption of a significant number of terrorist that are disturbed or abnormal.
However, Reach argument was that terrorism is a pathological behavior which serves to minimize the political and social issues that motivates the terrorists into actions. While psychologist Ken Haskins (1 984), who studied the psychology of terrorism in Northern Ireland, which noted that there were no psychological evidence that terrorist are diagnosable the psychopathic or clinically disturbed. Although in some instances in which a mentally ill individual may have led a terrorist group, but it has not been in the case of an international terrorism.

In order words, Depending on what type of organization the terrorist belongs to, it could be anything. Personal, religious, Ideology and motivation will influence the objectives of terrorist operations, especially regarding the casualty rate. Groups with secular ideologies and non-religious goals will often attempt highly selective and discriminate acts of violence to achieve a specific political aim. This often squires them to keep casualties at the minimum amount necessary to attain the objective.
This is both to avoid a backlash that might severely damage the organization, and also maintain the appearance of a rational group that has legitimate grievances. By limiting their attacks they reduce the risk of undermining external political and economic support. Groups that comprise a “wing” of an insurgency, or are affiliated with aboveground, sometimes legitimate, political organizations often operate under these constraints. The tensions caused by balancing these considerations are often a prime factor in he development of splinter groups and internal factions within these organizations.
