Abstract:
This study aimed to find out the extent of self-inflicted crimes using path analysis. As criminal statistics are one of the most common means of studying the criminal phenomenon and as a tool that reflects a true picture of the criminal situation in any population, by the logic that there is a close relationship between some crimes and their connections to each other, we find that there are a number of variables that represent self-inflicted crimes, which led us to use the method of path analysis model as one of the structural equation models applying to criminal crimes in Sudan, AMOS package was use in analysis data that collected from annual reports of the ministry of interior. The study concluded with several results, including that the path coefficients calculated using correlation coefficients are identical with the path coefficients computed from the regression, and that there is a direct and significant effect of terrorism and attempted murder, and using all criminal force on the murder crime, and there was indirect and significant effects through miscarriage and harm on the crime of murder. The study recommended that the state and those in charge of the matter work to prevent crime to limit its spread by extending the prestige of the law through horizontal spread to the police forces.
