The purpose of the current study was to identify and understand the experiences, needs, and effects of intrafamilial homicide (IFH) on surviving families. A homicide is considered intrafamilial when the perpetrator and decedent were both members of the same chosen or biological family. Qualitative interviews were conducted with 14 adult surviving family members of an IFH (M age = 46.14 years, SD = 12.78 years; n = 9 females, n = 5 males; n = 8 Black, n = 6 White; n = 11 non-Hispanic, n = 3 Hispanic). The results of thematic analyses indicated that families encountered a significant and negative impact to the family system as a result of the IFH. Specifically, participants discussed experiencing familial relationship strains, including relational cut-offs, child-custody and visitation issues, and divorce. Participants also provided their definition of immediate family and discussed the implications of the definition for post-IFH service provision. Most participants provided the first names or relationship titles of those individuals that they included within their immediate family, as well as a qualitative description of those relationships. Some participants also discussed the awareness that the co-victims that are impacted by the IFH are not always included within the traditional definition of immediate family and how that preconception can negatively impact post-IFH service provision. This research addresses much needed gaps in the extant literature, helps to inform future couple and family therapy practices, and provides direction for future research.

家庭内凶杀案对家庭系统的影响

当前研究的目的是确定和了解家庭内凶杀 (IFH) 对幸存家庭的经历、需求和影响。当肇事者和死者都是同一个选定或生物家庭的成员时,凶杀被认为是家庭内的。对 IFH 的 14 名成年幸存家庭成员进行了定性访谈(M年龄 = 46.14 岁,SD  = 12.78 岁;n  = 9 名女性,n  = 5 名男性;n  = 8 名黑人,n  = 6 名白人;n  = 11 名非西班牙裔,n = 3 西班牙裔)。专题分析的结果表明,家庭因 IFH 而对家庭系统产生了重大的负面影响。具体而言,参与者讨论了家庭关系紧张的经历,包括关系中断、子女监护和探视问题以及离婚。参与者还提供了他们对直系亲属的定义并讨论了定义对后 IFH 服务提供的影响。大多数参与者提供了他们包括在其直系亲属中的个人的名字或关系头衔,以及对这些关系的定性描述。一些与会者还讨论了受 IFH 影响的共同受害者并不总是包含在直系亲属的传统定义中的认识,以及这种先入之见如何对 IFH 后的服务提供产生负面影响。这项研究解决了现有文献中急需的空白,有助于为未来的夫妻和家庭治疗实践提供信息,并为未来的研究提供方向。
