From a criminal psychology perspective, thieves often consider multiple factors when choosing their targets to minimize their risk of being caught and injured. Here are some of the main factors: 1. **Accessibility of the target**: Thieves tend to choose locations that are easy to enter. This includes places without surveillance cameras, poor door and window locks, or a lack of traffic around. 2. **Security measures**: They will evaluate the security measures of the target location, such as alarm systems, security personnel, lighting conditions, etc. Low-security or unprotected locations are more attractive. 3. **Time selection**: Thieves often choose to commit crimes at night or when people are not at home to reduce the risk of being discovered. 4. **Target preciousness**: They will consider the potential value of the target, including the ease of cash conversion of the item, especially its market value and liquidity to the individual. 5. **Potential risk assessment**: Thieves will analyze the possibility of being caught, including the activity of the police and the responsiveness of the people around. 6. **Experience of the perpetrators**: Experienced thieves may choose places where they have successfully committed crimes before or have in-depth knowledge of certain locations to reduce risks. 7. **Social and environmental factors**: Thieves also consider the social structure of their surroundings, such as the safety of the area, neighborhood relations, and whether there are possible witnesses. 8. **Personal psychological state**: The psychological state of the thief and the balance between desire and fear in committing the crime will also affect their target selection. Through these considerations, thieves are able to avoid risks to a certain extent and implement their plans.
