Abstract

Hypersexuality is a dimensional indicator of sexual interest and behavior and typically includes the frequency, intensity, and time consumed by sexual activity. Hypersexuality has been identified as a psychologically meaningful risk factor for sexual offending. In fact, a relatively high proportion of sexual offenders report hypersexual behavior and this construct seems to be associated with re-offending in these men. The purpose of the present longitudinal investigation was to examine the rate of an objective, behavioral indicator of hypersexuality (Total Sexual Outlet) among 586 adult male sexual offenders and to determine the predictive utility of Total Sexual Outlet utilizing one of the longest follow-up periods used with sexual offenders (up to 20 years). Results indicated that approximately 12% of men met the clinical criterion for hypersexuality and that the presence of this construct was significantly associated with long-term sexual and violent recidivism. Results are discussed in terms of the im...

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
