Background Despite the high prevalence of child sexual offenses and increasing amounts available abuse material, there is a global shortage preventive interventions focusing on individuals at risk offending. The web-based app Troubled Desire aims to address this by offering self-assessments self-management training modules in different languages with interests prepubescent early pubescent children (ie, those pedophilic hebephiliac interest, respectively). Objective aim study was describe...
Empathy is regarded as dynamic risk factor of child sexual offending. However, empathy research in the context abuse suffers from various problems. First, prior studies failed to differentiate between pedophilic and nonpedophilic offenders. Second, there no distinction made cognitive affective empathy. Third, toward emotional states specific age groups (children adults) has not been adequately addressed. The current study tackles these shortcomings investigating offending nonoffending...
Deficits in cognitive empathy (CE) have been associated with a child sexual offense (CSO) history paedophilia. However, these results obtained cross-sectional comparison. There are no longitudinal studies yet. We performed study 3-year interval and investigated CE emotional (EE) using the Multifaceted Empathy Test (MET) Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI) paedophilic men CSO (P + CSO), without (P-CSO), non-offending teleiophilic male controls (TC). Results were stable confirmed data...
Abstract Behavioral studies found evidence for superior cognitive empathy (CE) in pedophilic men without a history of child sexual offending (P − CSO) compared to with + CSO). Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) also point differences between P CSO and CSO. Neural processing associated CE has not yet been investigated. Therefore, the present study aimed explore neural correlates subjects pedophilia offending. 15 CSO, 24 teleiophilic male controls (TC) performed task during fMRI. We...
Child sexual abuse offences (CSOs) represent a severe ethical and socioeconomic burden for society. Juveniles with preference prepubescent children (PP) commit large percentage of CSOs, but have been widely neglected in neuroscience research. Aberrant neural responses to face stimuli observed men pedophilic interest. Thus far, it is unknown whether such aberrations exist already PP. A passive face-viewing paradigm, including the presentation child adult faces, was deployed high-density...
