  • Title: [Children and adolescents with sexual behaviour problems in residential and partially residential welfare services].
    Author: Schuhrke B, Arnold J.
    Journal: Prax Kinderpsychol Kinderpsychiatr; 2009; 58(3):186-214. PubMed ID: 19435153.
    Abstract:
    The article considers how sexual behaviour problems in children and adolescents can be defined and investigates the degree to which the system of child welfare in Germany is confronted with clients demonstrating different kinds of problematic sexual behaviour. For the first time, the magnitude of this problem can be estimated by a secondary analysis of data from EVAS ("Evaluation System for Child and Adolescent Welfare Services"), a questionnaire-based evaluation system which supports youth care providers in their quality management. Data on more than 5,000 children and adolescents provided by a questionnaire completed at the point of admission to support services, as defined by paragraphs 32 or 34 SGB VIII (German Child Welfare legislation), is analysed. Information is provided on; prevalence of sexual behaviour problems and disorders of sexual behaviour; comorbidity; resources; psychosocial pressures; reasons for admission; and previous experience of child welfare systems. Clients with non-sexual symptoms function as a control group.
