DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Importance: A major obstacle to developing prevention programs for child sexual abuse is lack of information about its causes and correlates, especially in young offenders. We propose to continue our development of models for understanding sexual abuse perpetration by determining whether factors that distinguish sexual abuse perpetration from delinquent behavior are unique risk factors or causes and correlates of internalizing disorders in youth. Objectives: Aim 1: Determine the generalizability and applicability of a model of child sexual abuse perpetration based in attachment theory. Aim 2: Determine whether hostile masculinity, masculine adequacy, and an impersonal attitude toward sexuality are specific risk factors for sexual aggression. Aim 3: Expand our understanding of how attachment style confers risk for sexual abuse or sexual assault perpetration by including developmental and parental relationship data from primary caregivers. Seven specific hypotheses will be tested. Our central hypothesis is that child sexual abuse perpetration has both unique and shared risk factors with adolescent internalizing disorders and that the causes and correlates of sexual assault differ from those for child sexual abuse perpetration. Participants: We will recruit from probation and treatment programs to enroll male adolescents (n=400), 13-18 years old, who have either sexual abused a child, sexually assaulted a peer or adult, perpetrated a non-contact sex offense (e.g., exposing, voyeurism), or are being seen by a professional for a mental health or substance use disorder. Primary caregivers (n=200) of the adolescents will be recruited from community based sites. Design: This study uses a multi-method, cross-sectional design. Data will be collected from the four groups of adolescents and their primary caregivers by use of chart reviews, interviews, computer-administered self-report protocol, and blind ratings of the History of Attachments Interview. Setting: This project is a continuation of a successful collaboration between researchers at the University of Minnesota's Program in Human Sexuality, treatment providers, juvenile justice agencies, and residential placement agencies.

描述（由申请人提供）： 重要性：制定儿童性虐待预防计划的一个主要障碍是缺乏有关其原因和相关性的信息，特别是对于年轻犯罪者。 我们建议继续开发理解性虐待实施的模型，确定区分性虐待实施与犯罪行为的因素是否是独特的风险因素或原因，以及 青少年内化障碍的相关性。 目标：目标 1：确定基于依恋理论的儿童性虐待实施模型的普遍性和适用性。 目标 2：确定敌对的男性气质、男性气概充足性和对性的客观态度是否是性攻击的特定危险因素。 目标 3：加深我们对依恋风格如何带来性虐待或性侵犯风险的理解 通过纳入主要照顾者的发展和父母关系数据来进行犯罪行为。将测试七个具体假设。我们的中心假设是，儿童性虐待行为与青少年内化障碍具有独特和共同的风险因素，并且性侵犯的原因和相关性不同于儿童性虐待行为的原因和相关性。 参与者：我们将从缓刑和治疗计划中招募 13-18 岁的男性青少年 (n=400)，他们曾对儿童进行性虐待、对同龄人或成人进行性侵犯、实施非接触性犯罪（例如性侵犯）。 、暴露、偷窥），或因心理健康或药物滥用障碍而被专业人士检查。将从社区站点招募青少年的主要照顾者 (n=200)。 设计：本研究采用多方法、横断面设计。将通过图表审查、访谈、计算机管理的自我报告协议以及对依恋历史访谈的盲评来从四组青少年及其主要照顾者收集数据。 背景：该项目是明尼苏达大学人类性学项目的研究人员、治疗提供者、少年司法机构和住宿安置机构之间成功合作的延续。
