Abstract

This article renews the call by Chaffin and Bonner in 1998 to cease treating youth who engage in sexually abusive behaviors like adult male convicted sex offenders. The author urges that professionals cease imposing an adult-centered convicted sex offender paradigm in assessment and treatment. A new paradigm is advocated that considers sexual developmental and gender issues, along with judicial status in all areas of intervention (i.e., clinical and risk assessment, treatment/service planning, and possible treatment [when needed]). The paradigm is grounded on the Family Lovemap model, a conceptual framework for assessing the youth's bio-physio-psycho-social-sexual and erotic development. Discussed is the evidence-based, developmentally and gender sensitive risk-level tool, MEGA as a viable option for assessing risk for persistent coarse sexual improprieties and sexually abusive behaviors in youth ages 4-19 (adjudicated and non-adjudicated). Selected significant empirical findings are presented from 3,901 youths who were participants in samples of the MEGA validation studies.

我们不是成年性犯罪者;我们是你的青春!呼吁对遭受性虐待的青少年进行性别发展敏感评估。
这篇文章重申了1998年Chaffin和Bonner的呼吁,即停止将从事性虐待行为的青少年视为已定罪的成年男性性犯罪者。作者敦促专业人士停止在评估和治疗中强加以成人为中心的性犯罪者范式。提倡一种新的范例,考虑到性发展和性别问题,以及所有干预领域的司法地位(即临床和风险评估、治疗/服务计划以及[必要时]可能的治疗)。该范式以家庭爱情地图模型为基础,该模型是评估青少年生物-生理-心理-社会-性和情爱发展的概念框架。讨论了以证据为基础,对发展和性别敏感的风险水平工具MEGA♬作为评估4-19岁青少年(裁定和非裁定)持续粗暴性行为和性虐待行为风险的可行选择。选择显著的实证结果提出了从3,901青年谁是参与者的样本MEGA验证研究。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Child Sexual Abuse is interdisciplinary and provides an essential interface for researchers, academicians, attorneys, clinicians, and practitioners. The journal advocates for increased networking in the sexual abuse field, greater dissemination of information and research, a higher priority for this international epidemic, and development of effective assessment, intervention, and prevention programs. Divided into sections to provide clear information, the journal covers research issues, clinical issues, legal issues, prevention programs, case studies, and brief reports, focusing on three subject groups - child and adolescent victims of sexual abuse or incest, adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse or incest, and sexual abuse or incest offenders.
