A comparison of treatment outcomes between adolescent rapists and child sexual offenders

Article Abstract:

An important element of mental health commitment is the prediction of future criminal behavior. Adolescent rapists and adolescent child molesters committed for their offenses show no difference in amenability to psychotherapy and in the ability of the mental health professionals involved with them to predict future criminal behavior. There is a need for aftercare of such individuals.
