TY - JOUR PY - 1992// TI - Treating the adolescent victim-turned-offender JO - Adolescence A1 - Muster, N. J. SP - 441 EP - 450 VL - 27 IS - 106 N2 - Many juvenile sex offenders are also victims of sexual abuse. However, treatment primarily focuses on the juvenile's criminal acts in a confrontational, nonsympathetic manner. In the present paper, a survey of professionals in the sexual abuse treatment field assessed attitudes toward juvenile sex offender treatment. Those in the corrections field were the greatest supporters of confrontational and punitive therapy methods, while the majority favored flexibility in treatment.
