Abstract:

Path models assessed different models of influential order for parental bonding; adult romantic attachment; views of self, world/others, and the future; the fear of intimacy; and cognitive distortions among child molesters and non-offending controls. Child molesters receiving sex offender treatment reported more problematic parental bonding; insecure adult romantic attachment; negative views of self, world/others, and the future; a greater fear of intimacy, and more cognitive distortions regarding adult-child sex. The predicted path models were not established as the models did not adequately

Abstract:

The purpose of this theoretical study was to examine factors associated with the development of attachment relationships for children in long term foster care who Overt demonstrating problematic sexual behaviour. Due to the dearth in available research on this topic, it was necessary to draw from studies in three distinct areas (1) Attachment, (2) Childhood Sexuality, and (3) Placement Stability. In total, the present study examines 13 studies drawn from these three areas, and includes 11 quantitative and 2 mixed method studies.<br>These studies were chosen for their attention to the middle ag

Abstract:

Although many theoreticians have posited that cognitions concerning self, children, and other adults play a central role in the etiology and maintenance of child sexual abuse, knowledge in the area remains incomplete due, in part, to reliance on self-report measures, which are generally restricted to consciously accessible thoughts and susceptible to presentation bias. In the current study, the primary goal was to test for the existence of differences between the cognitions of child molesters and non-molesters using an implicit measure called the Implicit Association Test (IAT).

The Relapse Prevention (RP) approach to the treatment of addictive disorders (Marlatt & Gordon, 1985) and the model of the relapse process underlying it, is described and critically analysed. Its application to the treatment of sex offenders is described and a key RP construct, the abstinence violation effect, is critically examined. A reformulation of the abstinence violation effect is presented together with a discussion of the empirical support for this construct. Classification issues are also reviewed.

Abstract:

Structural equation modeling was used to test a theoretical model of the etiology of the deviant sexual aggression by adolescents. The subjects were 117 juvenile male sexual offenders who had been referred from either criminal justice or social service agencies to a clinic that treated offenders. The tested theoretical model included several family factors: parental deviance, child physical and sexual abuse history, and children's bonding to their parents. The model as a whole fitted the data very well. As for the specific hypotheses in the model, physical abuse by the father and sexual abuse

Abstract:

Sexual preference has been identified as an important component in the motivational matrix of many sexual offenders against children. Deviant sexual cues or behaviours are understood to elicit maximal arousal in the offender, who then experiences a preference for these cues or for behaviour motivated by the stronger sexual arousal. This preference for sexual interaction with children is understood to be a learned phenomenon, and thus modifiable. In recent years there has been a huge expansion in knowledge of the assessment and treatment of sexual offenders. One aspect of treatment is techniqu

Researchers emphasize the role of cognitions in sex offenders' molesting behaviors.

Child sexual offenders rated themselves and their view of a typical child molester using two NEO-PI-R versions.

Abstract:

Over the past two decades, interest in the psychological development of children has steadily increased (Beg, Casey, & Saunders, 2007), presumably because statistics describing childhood psychological illness are alarming. Certain parent interaction styles or behaviors are known to influence child adjustment. According to attachment theory, the reason for these findings is that interaction with a caregiver informs an individual’s construction of an internal working model (IWM) of the self in relation to others in the environment.

The attachment of a child and his or her caregiver is a bond that helps tie them together emotionally. The most important principle of attachment theory is the need of a child to develop a relationship with at least one primary caregiver for healthy emotional and social development to occur.
