  • Title: Exploring the overlap in male juvenile sexual offending and general delinquency: trauma, alcohol use, and masculine beliefs.
    Author: Brown A, Burton DL.
    Journal: J Child Sex Abus; 2010 Jul; 19(4):450-68. PubMed ID: 20672212.
    Abstract:
    Despite Burton and Meezan's (2004) finding that sexually aggressive youth are three to four times more likely to recidivate nonsexually than sexually, there is little to no research to date that explores this overlap in criminality. With a sample of 290 male sexually violent adjudicated and incarcerated youth, this study was able to successfully predict those who are exclusively sexually violent from those who are both nonsexually and sexually violent with each of the following factors: childhood trauma, masculine beliefs, and alcohol use. While alcohol use accounted for the greatest variance between the groups, masculine beliefs offered the greatest basis for the discussion and future projects for the authors of the study. Treatment and research implications are offered.
