Background: Domestic/family homicide (D/FH) is a global social, economic and public health problem. To date, the research studies into risk factors associated with D/FH has largely focused on intimate partner homicide (IPH). A more contemporary approach recognizes that D/FH extends beyond the intimate partner relationship. This systematic review sought to identify and quantify the individual, relationship, community and societal factors in the empirical evidence literature on D/FH. Methods: Eight electronic databases were searched from January 1999 to December 2020. Published journal articles on studies of D/FH were included if the study included victims and/or perpetrator of D/FH, reported risk and/or protective factors associated with D/FH, reported primary data and was published in English. Factors were descriptively synthesized by the categories of the social ecological model and D/FH sub-type. Results: Three hundred and forty published articles met the inclusion criteria. From 1999 to 2020 the number of articles on D/FH increased globally from 10 to 40 respectively, declining to 23 in 2020. Almost half of the articles examined populations located in the Americas (160, 47.1%), predominately the United States and the majority of articles used quantitative designs (277, 81.5%). The forms of homicide more commonly studied were intimate partner (171, 50.3%), and filicide (98, 28.8%). Approximately 90% of articles reported individual victim and perpetrator factors, 64.7% examined relationship factors, 17.9% examined community factors and 15.6% examined societal factors. Conclusion: To inform universal and targeted D/FH elimination and prevention strategies, more research across different regions and a greater emphasis on community and societal-level factors is needed.

家庭/家庭凶杀：经验证据的系统评价

背景：家庭/家庭凶杀案（D/FH）是一个全球性的社会、经济和公共卫生问题。迄今为止，与 D/FH 相关的风险因素的研究主要集中在亲密伴侣凶杀 (IPH) 上。一种更现代的方法认识到 D/FH 超越了亲密伴侣关系。该系统评价旨在识别和量化有关 D/FH 的经验证据文献中的个人、关系、社区和社会因素。方法：检索了 1999 年 1 月至 2020 年 12 月期间的八个电子数据库。如果研究包括 D/FH 的受害者和/或肇事者、报告的与 D/FH 相关的风险和/或保护因素，则纳入已发表的有关 D/FH 研究的期刊文章。 FH，报告了原始数据并以英文发表。因子由社会生态模型和D/FH亚型类别描述性综合。结果：340 篇发表的文章符合纳入标准。从 1999 年到 2020 年，全球有关 D/FH 的文章数量分别从 10 篇增加到 40 篇，到 2020 年下降到 23 篇。几乎一半的文章研究了位于美洲的人群（160 篇，47.1%），主要是美国和大多数文章使用定量设计 (277, 81.5%)。更常研究的凶杀形式是亲密伴侣（171，50.3%）和杀妻（98，28.8%）。大约 90% 的文章报告了个人受害者和肇事者因素，64.7% 研究了关系因素，17.9% 研究了社区因素，15.6% 研究了社会因素。结论：
