Book excerpt: Examine the major advances in sexual offender treatment over the last decade and promising new concepts in treatment, supervision, and research Sex Offender Treatment: Accomplishments, Challenges, and Future Directions points the way toward humane, dignified, effective treatment regimes for sexual offenders. In addition to providing an essential overview of the current state of sex offender treatment, this book examines vital areas of service provision and research and points to future directions for the field. On the medical/psychological front, this volume explores the importance of recognizing comorbid psychiatric factors in treatment and of exploring central nervous system function's role as a cause of sexually inappropriate behavior. In the legislative/justice arena it illustrates a “Circles of Support” proposal that mobilizes community resources to aid the adjustment of released offenders rather than branding them as dangerous to the community. And in the area of service provision, this book presents a treatment approach for residential programs that is inspired by research on childhood behavioral problems and special education. This book will increase your effectiveness with: a model of multisystemic treatment for juvenile sex offenders a restorative justice approach for reintegrating adult offenders into the community a study of the physical/mental correlates of organic brain dysfunction a case report on the use of a pharmaceutical treatment (leuprolide acetate) for pedophiles

Download or read book Juvenile Sex Offenders written by Eileen P. Ryan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-22 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A significant percentage of sexual abuse in the United States is committed by juveniles, and mental health professionals increasingly receive requests to evaluate these juveniles. With an emphasis on practicality and utility, Juvenile Sex Offenders fills a gap in the current literature by providing a thoughtful, thorough approach to evaluating and treating youth who have committed sexual offenses or have engaged in sexually abusive behavior. Serving as a functional guide, this text expertly prepares clinicians for the challenging task of evaluating juveniles, picking up where traditional clinical training often falls short and providing state-of-the-art assessment techniques as well as an overview of treatment modalities. Chapters highlight the many ways in which juveniles charged with sexual offenses differ from adults, the common dilemmas facing evaluators, and the changing perceptions and legal trends with respect to youth crime. Chapters also cover sexual development and behaviors among children and adolescents, risk factors and risk assessment, case examples for working with attorneys, and interventions and pharmacological approaches. Clinical practitioners with limited forensic training will benefit from the guidance on formal forensic evaluation and the review of literature on assessment approaches specific to youth, while forensic experts will gain developmental perspective in evaluating and treating young sexual offenders. Set in a hopeful and optimistic framework, Juvenile Sex Offenders is a practical, empirically based guide on the best practices in evaluating and treating this poorly understood and underserved population.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A meta-analysis of research literature published since 1978 was undertaken to assess the amount of change and efficacy associated with the treatment of adolescent sex offenders in institutional, residential, and community-based settings. An extensive literature search produced over 300 sources. All of the sources were coded and selected for inclusion based on established criteria. studies representing 1,411 adolescent included in the meta-analysis. An analysis of the database involved converting study findings to a common metric called an effect size. Effect sizes were studied across several variables to reveal patterns and establish findings regarding the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of adolescent sex offender treatment. The meta-analysis of effects (~ = 1,411) from 18 studies showed an average effect size of (Cohen Q = .49) which indicated a moderate level of effectiveness. Adolescents in treatment programs that implemented group and family interventions in a community-based/outpatient setting showed the best potential for positive outcomes. The results were supportive of a multisystemic modality of treatment. The results for offenders (14.5 to 15 years of age) were more positive than those for offenders (15.6 to 18.2 years of age). Studies conducted in the earlier years (1986 to 1991) achieved a greater effectiveness rating than studies conducted in the later years. Limitations of the study, implications for the juvenile justice system, and treatment planning were discussed. An appendix that categorically lists 340 sources that address adolescent sex offender issues is included. Overall, it appeared that adolescent sex offender treatment is moderately effective, although this conclusion must be moderated by the fact that effect sizes were heterogeneous. Recommendations for future research include a call for more long-term follow-up studies with thorough reporting practices.

Download or read book Treatment of Sex Offenders in Social Work and Mental Health Settings written by John S. Wodarski and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely book focuses on social work practice with sexual offenders in community mental health settings. Practicing professionals and academicians present both theoretical and empirical material covering three major classifications--the incest offender, the violent offender, and the social decency offender. Because today's sexual offenders are often turned away from psychiatric hospitals and instead served in open community centers, professionals in mental health centers and related human service agencies must be prepared to treat them. In this remarkably candid and instructive volume, experts equip psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and other professionals in mental health settings with valid, up-to-date techniques for working with sexually aggressive children, mentally retarded sex offenders, and incest families.
