Bumby, K. M., & Hansen, D. J. (1997).  Intimacy deficits, fear of intimacy, and lonelienss among sexual offenders.  Criminal Justice and Behavior, 24 (3), 315-331.

    The theory that intimacy deficits and loneliness are influential factors in the etiology and maintenance of sexualy offending behaviours is invesigated empirically.  Confirmation of such theories can be incorporated into both pre and post capture assessments and offender treatment approaches.

    Take note.  It's only two pages and its just an overview.  I listed this article because it is becoming more and more apparent that psychology is trying to advance its success at violence risk assessment, something that has not been very successful to date.  This summary includes information about recent advances.

    The debate about whether or not child molesters can be reformed is still a hot one.  This article looks at different variables used for assessing the risk of extrafamilial (outside of family) child molesters.
