[Homicide and sexual psychopathology].

Using data of forensic-psychiatric archive of the Institute for Neurology, Psychiatry and Mental Health in Novi Sad, 61 homicides were processed; in all cases victims and the murderers were of different sexes and were not blood kinships. By psychopathological analysis of the sample it was not possible to determine a unique profile of "sexual homicide". Considering the personality of the murderer, the degree of victimization and the importance of alcohol as a constelative factor, three categories of homicide connected with sexual life in the broadest sense were established and any degree of generalization in the practice of forensic-psychiatric theory and practice is impossible.

The role of depressive disorder in the suicidal behavior of alcoholics.

In order to examine the role depressive disorders play in the genesis of suicidal behavior of alcoholics, 330 alcoholic inpatients were examined. Within the total sample, 41% had distinct suicidal tendencies, and of those, 15% had made at least one serious suicide attempt. The MADRS and MMPI scales were used to obtain objective evaluation of the depressive disorders. The subjects were classified according to DSM-R criteria. The results show that suicidal alcoholics have statistically significantly more depressive characteristics.
