[The effect of marital relations of the parents on the level of general adaptation in sexual offenders].
The authors seek in a group of 297 treated sexual delinquents differences between the group of patients perceiving the relationship of their parents during childhood as harmonious and the group of those who consider it disharmonious. The assembled results are unequivocally to the disadvantage of patients of the second group. The authors found the most marked differences in the sphere of basic psychiatric characteristics (higher number of patients with psychiatric heredity, suicides in the family, alcoholism), characteristics of the initial family (higher incidence of fathers and mothers who were alcoholics, convicted fathers patients with abnormal relations with parents and siblings, spending part of the childhood without the family) and in the sphere of social adaptation (more frequently incomplete basic education, no skilled training, more frequent absenteeism and fluctuations at work). In the sphere of adaptation to partnership and as regards forensic sexological characteristics, there was a less significant, nevertheless convincing, trend shifting the patients from disharmonious families in a direction unfavourable for them. According to the authors' view it may be assumed that these findings are consistent with similar results in other groups of subjects with social problems and that they may be rather associated with a generally criminogenic influence of dysfunctional nuclear families in the delinquent population.
