“…Senon and Manzanera (2008) reported that 1% to 5% of sex offenders exhibit a psychiatric pathology, in particular, psychosis and mood disorders. These disorders may be associated with comorbidities such as substance abuse (Moroge, Paul, Milan, Perez, & Pilard, 2014). In addition, compared with perpetrators of nonsexual assaults, sex offenders exhibit more personality disorders such as schizoid, obsessive-compulsive characteristics, and an avoidant personality (Fazel, Hope, Donnell, & Jacoby, 2002).…”

“…In addition, compared with perpetrators of nonsexual assaults, sex offenders exhibit more personality disorders such as schizoid, obsessive-compulsive characteristics, and an avoidant personality (Fazel, Hope, Donnell, & Jacoby, 2002). Moreover, a negative personal and family history (Moroge et al, 2014; O’Toole & Jeglic, 2014) are thought to affect the individual’s development (development of an insecure anxious attachment, disorders of behavioral or emotional capacities of regulation, disorders of capacities of mentalization) and are factors that contribute to a vulnerability to psychopathological disorders (Schneck, Bowers, & Turkson, 2012). Another factor concerns socioaffective and relationship abilities ( relationship and contextual dimension ) and, in particular, impairment in emotional processes.…”

“…In addition to these two main risk factors, the aggressive act can be associated with negative events experienced by individuals during different phases of their lives ( adverse events ). For example, Moroge et al (2014) identified additional risk factors in a population of incestuous fathers, such as antecedents of abuse during childhood and previous sexual abuse. A meta-analysis by Jespersen, Lalumière, and Seto (2009) showed that child sexual offenders have experienced more sexual abuse during childhood, whereas adult sex offenders have more often been victims of physical abuse.…”

Determining Sexual Offender Profiles From Life Trajectories

To study qualitatively the development of a heteroaggressive behavior, we applied retrospective analytical method based on categorization of life events. The aim of this study was to establish the life trajectories of sexual offenders through interviews with second sources: the inmate’s relatives and psychologists. The life trajectories of incarcerated sexual offenders were retraced to build individual life charts. These life charts grouped individual life events into four main domains: health, life events, the relational sphere, and the judicial and prison sphere. In a sample of 40 inmate participants, four different profiles of sex offenders and therefore life trajectories were identified according to the abovementioned domains: (a) “Early life events and behavior disorders” ( n = 14), (b) “Abandonment issues” ( n = 4), (c) “Behavior and socioaffective disorders” ( n = 9), and (d) “Behavioral hyperadaptation and coldness” ( n = 13). Expert judges classified the life trajectories with satisfactory interjudge agreement ( k = 0.70). This research has clinical implications for integrating different life events into developmental trajectories and focusing psychological support for the individual.
