Engle, Michael J.; McFalls, Joseph A., Jr.; Gallagher, Bernard J., III
Journal of Offender Rehabilitation, v44 n4 p17-24 2007
Attitudes of members of the Association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers (ATSA) towards treatment, release, and recidivism of sexual predators are assessed through an anonymous questionnaire. Fifty-two percent (540 members) responded. A large majority report little hope for cure (63%) and fear of recidivism after treatment (88%). No differences in opinion are found between respondents when grouped by age, gender, political orientation, occupational title, or years in occupation. (Contains 2 tables.)
