The following methods were used: “MyF”, “CTO”, “Coding”, the “Hands” test of Wagner. The changes in the psychological characteristics and parameters of sexual self-consciousness revealed in the course of the study allowed us to identify actual targets for psychotherapeutic influence and were taken into account by us when determining the assessment of the risk of relapse and the degree of social danger of patients.</p>
