Hudson, S.M., & Ward, T. (1997). (2015) found that family abuse and poor attachment played an important role in the etiology of intrafamilial sexual offending. The fourth group consists of individuals who download pornographic images for nonsexual reasons (e.g., financial gain). (1998). Violence in the home has been shown to be predictive of antisocial lifestyle, hostile attitudes toward women, emotional callousness and hostile masculinity (Malamuth et al., 1991), all of which suggest pro-offending attitudes toward rape. Indiscriminate offenders, also known as mixed offenders, report sexually abusing both adults and children equivalently. Researchers have developed specific classification-unique offender characteristics (Knight & Prentky, 1990; Simon et al., 1992).

Future research in this area is needed to further identify factors that characterize specialist offenders from generalist offenders. Etiological research has suggested that it is the interaction of biological and social learning factors that influences the development of sexual offending behaviors (Ward & Beech, 2008). (2006). 2636). However, the relationship between crossover offending and recidivism are not conclusive. Rapists have been found to have a greater number of previous violent convictions, and they tend to use greater levels of aggression and force than child sexual abusers (Bard et al., 1987). Sexual abuse: A Journal of Research and Treatment, 27,258283. Each provision has a different definition of the enhancing offense. This focus on offence behaviour can assist clinicians in understanding how child sexual abusers commit their offences. Typologies for child molesters: The generation of a new structural model. Those offences towards the situational end of the continuum are thought to reflect basic sexual needs such as lust, or non-sexual needs such as power or anger. Recent studies have found similar rates of crossover (referred to as polymorphism) using official records coupled with treatment and assessment files. Kleban et al.

Types of preferential molesters include: Preferential child molesters have four common characteristics: Courts and Law Enforcement categorize offenders according to risk of recidivism (repeating offenses). The majority of fixated child sexual abusers are individuals who sexually assault male children who are not related; regressed child sexual abusers often consist of incest offenders or offenders who sexually assault female adolescents (Priest & Smith, 1992).

Masturbation to these fantasies may serve as a coping mechanism from stress, as a means to exert control, and ultimately, as a behavioral rehearsal to sexual offending. Although crossover findings have been reported in numerous studies using different methodologies, some suggest that the prevalence of age crossover or multiple paraphilias is overstated, particularly in studies that use polygraph testing.

Similar to male offenders, females report engaging in bestiality during adolescence, but the prevalence rates for females are significantly lower than for child sexual abusers and indiscriminate offenders of both genders. Lannings (1985, 2010) typology is a rationally-derived system that initially divided child sexual abusers into four situational types and three preferential types. Freeman, N.J., & Sandler, J.C. (2008). New York: John Wiley. If threats or physical violence are used they are likely to be instrumental in nature and are made to avoid identification or disclosure. Researchers (e.g., Craissati, McClurg & Browne, 2002a) explain that an individual who has been raised in an emotionally impoverished environment is often unable to identify his emotions in an accurate manner and, as a result, is likely to become confused when confronted with emotionally charged situations. Contrary to the other types, the attention-focus offender does not use manipulation. (For a discussion of adult "Sex Offender Risk Assessment,"see Chapter 6in the Adult section.) Data analysis identified four dimensions of offense characteristics: patterns of online communication, online identities, nature of the relationship and levels of expertise (number of victims, child pornography involvement, sophistication of strategies and awareness of criminality) (Tener et al., 2015). (2009). With respect to victim type stability over time, repeat offending was not stable in the age domain; offenders with victims 5 years old or younger show the least stability (i.e., more likely to assault victims from different age categories). Although inherently useful for research purposes, these traditional rapist typologies demonstrate little clinical utility because they exclude the irrational cognitions (i.e., offense-supportive beliefs) displayed by most men who commit rape (Hudson & Ward, 1997). The notion of a motivational continuum is particularly useful in clinical practice as the need to awkwardly force offenders into discrete categories is removed. The sadistic behavioural pattern involves offences in which the childs response to the infliction of suffering, humiliation, or pain is sexually arousing. According to a study cited in the text, correctional managers attribute misconduct to: a.) Nonetheless, it is crucial that clinicians remember that when an adult and child have sex the adult is always the offender and the child is always the victim (Lanning, 2010, p. 26). The psychosocial development of sex offenders: Differences between exhibitionists, child molesters, and incest offenders. The inadequate offender chooses his victim because he is socially inept and likely to perceive his victim as a vulnerable object through which he may satisfy his sexual curiosity. In a sample of 227 female sexual offenders, Vandiver (2006) found that 46 percent offended with another person and the majority of these co-perpetrators were male (71 percent), 62 percent offended with one individual and 38 percent offended within a group. Using polygraph testing, these researchers examined the prevalence of hands-on sexual offending among 155 internet child pornography offenders.

A meta-analysis conducted by Hanson and Bussiere (1998) found that of 1,839 rapists, 19 percent (n= 349) sexually recidivated and 22 percent (n= 405) violently recidivated over an average follow-up of five years.2The researchers assessed recidivism from several studies that reported the commission of another sex crime (e.g., rape) or violent crime (e.g., assault) through reconviction records (84 percent), arrest records (54 percent), self-reports (25 percent) and parole violation records (16 percent).3They caution that these findings are based on diverse methods and follow-up periods. New York: Guilford Press. Hanson (2002) concluded that, in addition to sexual deviance, variables such as low self-control, criminal lifestyle, impulsivity and opportunity are important factors associated with sexual offending. The fourth type is the sadistic rapist, who reenacts sexual fantasies involving torture or pain. (1981).

This type of offender has been convicted or plead guilty to a sexual offense and is believed likely to reoffend. Child sexual abusers have been difficult to classify as they vary in economic status, gender, marital status, ethnicity and sexual orientation. Pedophilia: Assessment and treatment. Watch your back! Not all individuals who sexually assault children are pedophiles. Females who participate passively do not engage in direct sexual contact; instead, these women may observe the abuse but not intervene, procure victims for others to sexually assault or expose children to pornography or sexual interaction (Grayston & De Luca, 1999). Does the polygraph lead to better risk prediction for sexual offenders? This model proposes that four pathways lead to sexual offending. Negative emotions combined with cognitive distortions may increase the intensity of sexual desire and deviant sexual fantasies (e.g., those about children, whom they perceive as less threatening). New York: Guilford Press. Findings from a study conducted by Stephens et al., (2016) indicate number of victims explains the relationship between age crossover and sexual recidivism. For example, risk assessment instruments are derived from research demonstrating intrafamilial child sexual abusers present a lower risk of reoffense than extrafamilial offenders (Hanson & Bussiere, 1998); as such, incest offenders are more likely to be assigned as lower risk, consequently receiving less treatment services and supervision. This type of molester is categorized as without conscience and engages in other types of abuse, as well as sexual abuse. fk. Over time they gradually lower the child victims sexual inhibitions until they are willing to engage in sexual behaviour because of the benefits that they are receiving. However, after controlling for number of victims, mixed-gender offenders were not more likely to sexually recidivate compared to child sexual abusers who offend against males and females exclusively (Stephens et al., 2016). As previously discussed, developmental studies have demonstrated the association between childhood sexual experiences and sexual abuse of children (Jespersen, Lalumiere & Seto, 2009). Studies have reported prevalence rates from 32 to as high as 64 percent; the majority of studies found rates in the range of 50 to 60 percent (Abel & Osborn, 1992; English et al., 2000; Heil, Ahlmeyer & Simons, 2003; O'Connell, 1998; Wilcox et al., 2005). This individual sexually assaults for retaliatory reasons and often degrades or humiliates the victim. The introverted type may spend time with children but not engage in direct touching sexual activity. Those who did specialize in sexual crimes were more likely to exhibit characteristics similar to child sexual abusers, such as sexual deviance and sexual preoccupation. Learn more. While the two formal diagnostic manuals are not particularly helpful in differentiating child sexual abusers, the prepared clinician can draw upon a number of classification systems to assist in developing a detailed formulation. Initially, the sex-focused type is not seeking sex with minors; instead, they are looking for immediate sexual interaction with adults. They are based on clusters of behaviors and psychological processes to account for the heterogeneity of offending. A re-examination of female child molesters' implicit theories: Evidence for Female Specificity? As such, these offenders may also target the elderly as well. McGee, R.A., Wolfe, D.A., & Wilson, S.K.

Indeed, the DSM-5 criteria for pedophilic disorder (APA, 2013) and the ICD-10 criteria for paedophilia (WHO, 1992) seemingly depend upon the offender honestly describing their sexual fantasies at interview. Their offending is often impulsive and opportunistic. Contrary to the experts,cynicaloffenders know their victims or, if they meet online, they fabricate or present true identities. They differ from rapists with respect to thought processes and affect, and often describe their offending behaviors as uncontrollable, stable and internal; whereas rapists attribute their offenses to external, unstable and controllable causes (Garlick, Marshall & Thorton, 1996). This group consisted mostly of rapists. Add inadequate to one of your lists below, or create a new one. Usage explanations of natural written and spoken English. The gender of the victim remains an important distinction among child sexual abusers because this factor has been shown to be a strong predictor of sexual reoffense (Hanson & Bussiere, 1998), although exactly what can be predicted is unclear. Researchers have also suggested that different types of maltreatment may be associated with different types of sexual offending behaviors(e.g., Lee et al., 2002; Simons, Wurtele & Heil, 2002). There are also a few hundred alcoholics and inadequates. Knight, R.A., & Prentky, R.A. (1990). Similar to violent offenders, Simon (2000) found that rapists displayed significant diversity in their offense records in comparison to child sexual abusers and had committed equivalent proportions of drug-related offenses, thefts and burglaries. This was characterised by the promise of gifts, reassurance of the victim, affection, desensitisation, kissing, and the offender performing oral sex on the victim.

Compared to females who abuse alone, females who co-offend are more likely to abuse females and familial victims, to commit multiple sexual offenses (Wijkman, Bijeveld & Hendriks, 2011) and are more likely to be arrested for a non-sexual offense (Vandiver, 2006).

Individuals download pornographic pictures of children to aid arousal and masturbation, as a collecting activity, as a way of facilitating social relationships and as a substitute for child sexual contact (Quayle & Taylor, 2003). Using official record databases containing 1,345 incarcerated sexual offenders, Cann et al. (1991). Seto, Hanson and Babchishin (2011) reviewed 24 studies and found that 12.5 percent of internet offenders engaged in contact sexual offending as indicated by official records; however, this rate increased to approximately 50 percent using self-report.
