The methodological foundation of this research is based upon content analysis of semi-structured interviews, multidimensional analysis of the interviews as well as questionnaires, structural analysis of the mental maps and the interpretation of Cloninger's Temperament and Character Inventory-revised. Overall, this study goes beyond police statistics of burglars and aims to understand the choice of targets and implemented strategy from the burglars' point of view.
