abstract="Objective: 12 - 35 % of all sexual delinquents report victimization through early sexual abuse. To date, studies are based on small samples and mostly come from English-language countries.Methods: As part of an interdisciplinary study on the human rights situation in long-term imprisonment, we examined 1,055 prisoners from 11 countries in Europe with the Posttraumatic Stress Diagnostic Scale (PDS) concerning their traumas in relation to their offences.Results: Sexual delinquents who reported own prior sexual abuse within the family had a fourfold increase in committing sexual offences later in their life compared to other offenders.Conclusions: A detailed trauma history which includes sexual offences within the family is essential for adequate therapy and relapse prevention.<p /> <p>Language: de</p>",
