  • Title: A comparison of sex offenders against female and male minors.
    Author: Freund K, Watson R, Rienzo D.
    Journal: J Sex Marital Ther; 1987; 13(4):260-4. PubMed ID: 3694689.
    Abstract:
    Male sex offenders against minors were grouped according to age and sex of victims, and according to whether they had offended against one or more than one minor. Cases of incest or courtship disorder were not included in the study. Among offenders against female children, the number of one-case offenders was substantially larger than that of multicase offenders. The opposite was true of offenders against male children, and there was no significant difference between one-case and multicase offenders against female or male early adolescents. If these counts reflect corresponding prevalences within sex offenders against minors in a Western cultural setting, some inferences can be made from these comparisons.
