A review of sex offender treatment programs.
The author analyzes the current literature and research concerning sexual offender treatment including research on treatment methods and a brief review of three populations: wife batterers; alcoholics; and substance abusers. A brief description of several treatment programs is followed by a discussion of sex offender treatment effectiveness, and a qualitative study of alcoholics' perception of treatment to illustrate how qualitative results were utilized to structure a treatment approach.
