Risk Factors for Child Sexual Abuse

چکیده
Becker reviews research on child sexual abuse perpetrators, highlighting the role of deviant sexual interests and behaviors in perpetration. Becker discusses characteristics of child sexual abuse perpetrators, problems in determining recidivism rates, and the efficacy of sexual offender treatment measures. CSA perpetrators are a diverse group in terms of both background and perpetration acts, but many share traits in common, such as paraphilias (socially unacceptable sexual practices), a history of physical and/or sexual abuse, and early onset of deviant sexual interests. Research suggests that multiple variables, rather than a single variable, increase risk of child sexual abuse perpetration. Center for Sex Offender Management. (2000).
