Abstract

Whilst research on indecent image of children (HOC) offenders is increasing, litde is known about HOC content. This paper presents a content analysis on the sexual actions depicted in a sample of 729 HOC ffom 26 offenders. Victims were most often White females aged around 95 years, with most offenders in the 18-24 age range, male and White. Most images show erotic posing with no sexual activity, with 13.4% presenting sexual activity by an adult on a child and 12.8%presenting sexual activity by a child on an adult. ExpUcit portrayals of physical aggression, humih'ation or overt physical suffering were conspicuously rare. Few images depicted attempts to display pseudo affection towards the victim. Interactions were found in several variables between victims' age and gender and offenders' age and gender. The need to more fully understand the nature and content of HOC and their psychological significance are discussed.

儿童不雅图像中的性行为:内容分析

虽然对儿童不雅图像(HOC)罪犯的研究越来越多，但对HOC内容知之甚少。本文对26名罪犯729名HOC的性行为进行了内容分析。受害者通常是年龄在95岁左右的白人女性，大多数罪犯年龄在18-24岁之间，男性和白人。大多数图片显示的是没有性行为的色情姿势，13.4%的图片显示的是成年人对孩子的性行为，12.8%的图片显示的是孩子对成年人的性行为。对身体攻击、羞辱或公开的身体痛苦的描绘明显罕见。很少有图片描绘试图对受害者表现出虚假的感情。在受害者的年龄和性别与犯罪者的年龄和性别之间的几个变量中发现了相互作用。讨论了对HOC的性质、内容及其心理学意义的进一步认识。
