A violent true believer (abbr. VTB) is an individual dedicated to an ideology or belief system advocating homicide and suicide as legitimate means of advancing a particular cause. Such persons are strongly committed to their beliefs, completely ignoring any objections and alternative views. Suicide is not necessary to define a VTB. Violent true believers commonly interact with others who share their opinions, but can also be lone wolves. The term violent true believer was coined by forensic psychiatrist Dr. J. Reid Meloy, who has described several categories of such individuals and their motivation. The traits and possible disorders of VTBs are described in diagnostic systems (DSM-IV/ICD-10 F), but VTB is not a medical diagnosis in itself - the term is used in the fields of forensic psychology and criminology.
