Denigration of a victim in individual psychotherapy by violent vs
seductive child molesters
20 child molesters, 10 classified as violent and 10 as seductive, were
studied in individual psychotherapy, with their therapists responding
to a checklist indicating clients' use of victim-denigrating
statements. The violent child molesters were significantly more likely
to make statements denigrating their victims than were the child
molesters classified as seductive. The results expand the 1993
findings of Eisenman who observed this phenomenon with sex offenders
during group psychotherapy. Theoretical and treatment implications are
discussed.
