Abstract

Treatment satisfaction and post-treatment factors have not received focus in research on the efficacy of sex offender treatment. We aim to describe factors that are associated with treatment satisfaction and how having satisfaction with sex offender treatment is related to future health and protective factors. We solicited responses via an anonymous self-administered survey from 718 adults in the United States who were required to register on a sex offender registry. Being older, a person of color, and not sentenced to prison were associated with higher odds of treatment satisfaction. Those convicted of rape offenses had higher odds of treatment satisfaction than respondents with other types of sexual offenses. A significant relationship was found between treatment satisfaction and being in a committed relationship, being in good mental and physical health, and being self-employed. The results suggest that satisfaction with treatment is a good predictor of treatment benefits.

性犯罪成人治疗满意度的相关关系。

治疗满意度和治疗后因素在性犯罪者治疗效果的研究中尚未得到重视。我们的目的是描述与治疗满意度相关的因素，以及对性犯罪者治疗的满意度如何与未来的健康和保护因素相关。我们通过一项匿名的自我调查征求了718名美国成年人的反馈，他们被要求在性犯罪者登记处登记。年龄较大、有色人种和没有被判入狱的人对治疗的满意度更高。那些被判犯有强奸罪的人比其他类型的性犯罪的受访者对治疗的满意度更高。治疗满意度与忠诚的关系、良好的身心健康、自主创业之间存在显著关系。结果表明，对治疗的满意度是治疗效果的一个很好的预测指标。
