A fundamental issue established at the outset of this
course is the fact that becoming involved in terrorist activities is a process,
where numerous factors can affect the mindset and actions of an individual. We

terrorist motivations. In this research paper also summarize behavioral and
psychological factors associated with disengaging from terrorism and describe
what efforts or programs are most effective in countering radicalization and
why.
