The question of radicalization has led to research into psychological profiles, personality traits, and even the existence of mental disorders, with a view to preventing these processes, or at least treating them on a secondary level. The various studies carried out over the last twenty years show that the profiles are numerous, evolve over time, and can certainly not be summed up as some psychological disorder. Typologies have been established, allowing the integration of a psychological analysis into a multidisciplinary approach that incorporates evolutive data throughout each subject’s life course.
