N2  - The sexual abuse of children represents a remarkable proportion of about 25% of all sexual offences. Data from 20 male pedophilic persons seen at the occasion of forensic psychiatric assessment were analysed. Personality traits as measured by the widely used standardized personality inventar FPI version A1 were dominated by signs of psychic inhibition and altered somatic wellness. Intelligence and education level were usually low. Nine persons (45%) had been already convicted because of the sexual abuse of children aged below 14 years. In stepwise multiple regression analysis including age, educational and social level, tested IQ and the different personality traits (FPI-A1 scales), the number of previous offences was shown to be significantly influenced by the (younger) age of the culprit at the occasion of the sexual child abuse and tendentially also be the (lower) educational level.<p />  <p>Language: de</p>
