First, I send prayers to The Creator, the Grandfathers and Grandmothers before me who made this way. To the Elders and the Whippoorwill who have and continue to sustain me, 1 honor each of you. I pledge to continue to carry your words and ways as 1 go forward, remembering to give as 1 have been given to. Mitakuye Oyasin. 1 wish to thank my mentor, advisor, chair and support, Susan Sharp, for her involvement in this process. Her dedication and excitement to this discipline, to students, is inspiring. 1 thank Wil Scott for his early support and guidance, which encouraged me to have a broader sociological view, yet remain focused. In addition, 1 wish to thank Trina Hope for her expertise in self-control theory and laughter at pivotal moments. While they were not consulted on a daily basis, I am grateful to Dan Lawrence, Stephen Sloan and Susan-Marcus Mendoza all of whom shared thoughts and suggestions that were invaluable to this process. I am grateful to Vivian Carter who provided the voice of sanity in dark nights, and laughter on cold days but more importantly offered me her friendship. She made many trips, sent long e-mails, and gave lots of encouragement. The roles played by Dennis Brewster, Marguerite Keesee, Nancy Sonleimer, and Elaine Eriksen have been indispensable. Without their support and tenacious friendships, this journey would have been much harder. Andy and Angela Boatman, I thank you for standing by me regardless of where I was and for somehow knowing I would come through. To those from the IV “Oklahoma Contingency” I thank you for including me in spirit when I was unable to be with you in ceremony, your words and prayers stay with me. I want to honor Dr. Richard Rettig, who is now retired from the University of Central Oklahoma and living in Oregon. If not for him, I could not have walked this path. Richard mentored me as an undergraduate, and through my Master’s degree providing daily doses of sociological discourse. Most importantly, I thank those whom I am proud to call family. You have stood by me, whatever came, and I am grateful. Carol was my foundation, always supportive of my endeavors, regardless of the shortness of my time, temper and funds. She encouraged me to step forward and make dreams realities. I could not have wished for a better partner. Joyce has been an encouragement to me to stay the course, reminding me that I could get to the mountaintop because it was my journey to make. Mom kept the phone calls coming from Kentucky, reminding me I was the first in the family to complete this journey. In turn, I want to thank each of you who have made this journey with me in some way, I am grateful beyond words. I acknowledge each of you and I share with you this accomplishment. May you each stand in peace. This is the way of it Let the stoiy fiies be lighted, [.et our circle be strong and AiU of medicine. Hear me. This is my dream song that I am singing for you. This is my power song that is taking me to the edge. This is Rock medicine. The talking tree. The singing water. Listen. I am dancing iinrfCTneath you. This is the way of it. It is a river. It is a chant. It is a medicine story. It is what happened long ago. It is a bead in a story belt It is what has been forgotten. It is the smell of sweetgrass and cedar and prayers lifted to Sky Father. It is a way. a tradition. The way it was always done by the people. It is a feeling of warmth. The sound of voices. Listen. I am dancing underneath you.

RUNNING HEAD: DETERMINING A CORRELATION BETWEEN CHILDHOOD TRAUMA & VIOLENT ACTS 2 Identifying Patterns Between the Sexual Serial Killer & Pedophile: Is There a Correlation Between their Violent Acts and Childhood Trauma? ______________________________________________________________________________ A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences Florida Gulf Coast University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree of Master of Science _____________________________________________________________________________ By Alexis Droomer 2020 RUNNING HEAD: DETERMINING A CORRELATION BETWEEN CHILDHOOD TRAUMA & VIOLENT ACTS 3 Abstract Studies have been conducted to determine if a sexual serial killer and pedophile are similar and/or different to one another. Despite the difference in their criminal acts, sexual serial killers and pedophiles have similar characteristics. Biological, environmental and psychological theories of criminal behavior were studied which illustrated their significance to how a person can choose to commit a crime. The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a presence or absence within multiple forms of childhood trauma experienced between the sexual serial killer and pedophile.

Terry, 2010 ABSTRACT Food, Feeding, and Female Sexual Arousal Feederism is a fat fetish subculture that eroticizes eating, feeding, and gaining weight. This thesis attempts to explain the practice of Feederism using an evolutionary approach. Chapter one examines the historical and cross-cultural meaning of fat and its association with fertility, health, and beauty. Chapter one also reviews the current literature on fat admiration and Feederism, and introduces some possible explanations for what Feederism is, and how it can be conceptualized. Chapter two describes a case study that was conducted on a female member of the Feederism community. The results of this case study add support to the hypothesis that Feederism is paraphilic. Chapter three describes a psychophysiological study that tested how members of the general population respond to and rate feeding stimuli. This study was conducted to determine whether Feederism is an exaggeration of a more normative and functional mate selection strategy. The results of this study demonstrate that males and females both respond to and rate feeding stimuli similarly.

  • Prevalence and Treatment of Frotteurism in the Community: a Systematic Review
    REGULAR ARTICLE Prevalence and Treatment of Frotteurism in the Community: A Systematic Review R. Scott Johnson, MD, JD, LLM, Britta Ostermeyer, MD, MBA, Kristi A. Sikes, MD, Andrea J. Nelsen, MD, and John H. Coverdale, MD, MEd This article describes a systematic review of prevalence studies on frotteurism. We searched the following databases for previously published, peer-reviewed studies that used suitable diagnostic methods in adult nonclinical samples: Ovid MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Pubmed, AccessMedicine, Cochrane Library, Books@Ovid, DynaMed, Micromedex, Science Direct, and SciVerse Scopus. We conducted multiple searches using the following terms: frotteu*, frottage, frotteurism, paraphilia, paraphilic, courtship disorder, prevalence, treatment, diagnosis, and chikan, and we evaluated the articles by using a six-point epidemiologic quality tool. We identified four prevalence studies, all of which were of limited methodological quality. Limitations included small sample sizes, the use of local rather than national samples, the failure to apply DSM or ICD-9 diagnostic criteria, and the lack of assessment regarding the reliability of diagnostic tools. One small study, a statistical outlier, reported a prevalence of 35 percent. In the three other studies, the prevalence of frotteurism was 7.9 percent, 9.1 percent, and 9.7 percent. We found no studies addressing treatment that met our inclusion criteria. Our findings reveal a need to develop more rigorous research on this topic.

  • Characteristics of a Fictitious Child Victim: Turning a Sex Offender's
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMMUNICATIONS LAW & POLICY CHARACTERISTICS OF A FICTITIOUS CHILD VICTIM: TURNING A SEX OFFENDER’S DREAMS INTO HIS WORST NIGHTMARE By James F. McLaughlin† ABSTRACT There have been more criminal offenses involving the possession, manufacture and distribution of child pornography in the past decade than at any time in history. Sex offenders have exploited the ease of using home computers, peripheral devices and the Internet; computers and the Internet are now recognized means by which sex offenders can seek out and lure child victims. The Internet has afforded sex offenders contact with child victims whom they otherwise would not be able to access. Law enforcement has responded to the public outcry for greater law enforcement presence and intervention on the Internet, recognizing the threat this new technology poses to children. Both the United States Congress and many individual states have responded by enacting new statutes and modifying old laws to deal with this relatively new and growing danger. Law enforcement has in turn increased its undercover presence on the Internet, while also developing innovative procedures and techniques to detect and successfully prosecute online offenders. The goals of this article are twofold: first, to present a depiction of the “perfect victim” using research and the author’s own experience; and, second, to suggest methods by which law enforcement personnel can more effectively apprehend child sex offenders on the Web. I. INTRODUCTION Law enforcement has increasingly turned to undercover operations in order to combat the growing threat of sex offenders targeting children online. An undercover persona can be more productive if it incorporates the cognitive distortions to which sex offenders are subject.

The number and taxonomy of paraphilias is under debate; one source lists as many as 549 types of paraphilias.[4] The DSM-5 has specific listings for eight paraphilic disorders.[5] Several sub- classifications of the paraphilias have been proposed, and some argue that a fully dimensional, spectrum or complaint-oriented approach would better reflect the evidence.[6][7] Contents ◾ 1 Terminology ◾ 1.1 Homosexuality and non-heterosexuality ◾ 2Causes ◾ 3 Diagnosis ◾ 3.1 Typical versus atypical interests ◾ 3.2 Intensity and specificity ◾ 3.3 DSM-I and DSM-II ◾ 3.4 DSM-III through DSM-IV ◾ 3.5 DSM-IV-TR ◾ 3.6 DSM-5 ◾ 4 Management ◾ 5 Epidemiology ◾ 6 Legal issues ◾ 7 See also ◾ 8 References https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraphilia 3/23/2016 Paraphilia - Wikipedia, the freevisited encyclopedia on 3/23/2016 Page 2 of 13 ◾ 9 External links Terminology Many terms have been used to describe atypical sexual interests, and there remains debate regarding technical accuracy and perceptions of stigma.

    Running head: Non-consensual sexual images Delineating non-consensual sexual image offending: Towards an empirical approach Craig A. Harper* Nottingham Trent University (UK) Dean Fido & Dominic Petronzi University of Derby (UK) * Correspondence about this article should be addressed to Dr. Craig Harper, Department of Psychology, Nottingham Trent University, 50 Shakespeare Street, Nottingham, NG1 4FQ, UK. Email: [email protected]. Tel: +44 (0)115 848 4718. 1 Delineating non-consensual sexual image offending: Toward an empirical approach Abstract The topic of non-consensual sexual images has become an increasingly important issue within the social policy landscape. Social and legal scholars have advocated for these behaviours to be designated sexual offences due to the mode of perpetration of these behaviours, but are explicit in their rejection of a sexual element being important in the motivations underpinning such behaviours. However, this rejection is inconsistent with the core theoretical models related to sexual offending. In this article, we outline some of the potential psychological concepts that may help us to understand how and why people engage in a range of non-consensual sexual image offences, such as revenge pornography, upskirting, deepfake media production, and cyber-flashing. In doing so, we aim to begin to bridge the gap between legal scholars and psychological scientists, and develop a more comprehensive and theoretically coherent approach to studying this important social topic. Key words: non-consensual sexual images, revenge pornography, upskirting, deepfake media, cyber-flashing 1. Introduction: Existing theorising about non-consensual sexual image offending Since around 2010 there has been strong public debate surrounding the distribution of private sexual images (commonly referred to as ‘revenge pornography’ offending).

  • Université De Montréal Paraphilic Coercive Disorder: Behavioral
    Université de Montréal Paraphilic Coercive Disorder: Behavioral Markers and Validity of Diagnostic Criteria par Anaida Agalaryan Département de psychologie Faculté des arts et sciences Thèse présentée à la Faculté des études supérieures et postdoctorales en vue de l’obtention du grade de Philosophiae Doctor (Ph. D.) en psychologie recherche et intervention option psychologie clinique Mars 2015 © Anaida Agalaryan, 2015 ABSTRACT The present dissertation aims to address the shortcomings in the current literature on Paraphilic Coercive Disorder (PCD) by focusing on two main objectives: assessing the validity of the diagnostic criteria proposed for inclusion in the DSM-5 and investigating behavioral markers. To this end, archival files of rapists who offended against adult women were studied. The thesis consists of three empirical articles. The first article presents a succinct account of some of the key results emanating from the analyses. The second article (N = 47) examines the observed frequencies of PCD and assesses the validity and impact of relying on minimum number of victims as a diagnostic criterion. Furthermore, a number of variables of interest are examined to determine predictors of sexual recidivism. The third article (N = 52) compares diagnostic groups on a number of offense conduct characteristics – specifically sexual acts and violent behaviors – in an attempt to identify behavioral markers associated with rape-proneness that could aid with the diagnosis of PCD. Similarly, rapist typologies were created by classifying the sample into groups of sex offenders based on their sexual acts, on one hand, and violent behaviors, on the other hand. Consequently, their characteristics and association with PCD were examined.

  • Nuisance Sex Behaviors ❖ ❖ ❖
    04-Holmes-45515.qxd 5/28/2008 3:12 PM Page 63 4 Nuisance Sex Behaviors ❖ ❖ ❖ There are many sexual behaviors that are completely abhorrent to the senses of most Americans. These practices become more visible as scores of sex offenders are placed in correctional institutions through- out the United States. Sex offenders in prisons currently number more than 234,000 (Bureau of Justice Statistics, 2004). The preponderance of those offenders are involved in rape and other violent sex crimes. However, there is a growing amount Erotolalia of serious literature that suggests that Deriving major sexual satisfaction from many rapists, lust murderers, and sexu- talking about or listening to talk about sex ally motivated serial murderers have Erotomania histories of sexual behavior that reflect A compulsive interest in sexual matters patterns that in the past have been con- sidered only nuisances—not behaviors to become seriously concerned about (Holmes & Holmes, 2001; Masters & Robertson, 1990; McCarthy, 1984). Rosenfield (1985), for example, found that 62% of sex offenders in a prison sample revealed deviant sexual acts other than those for which they were sent to prison. This position will be reinforced by other stud- ies we will cite later in this chapter. They admitted to sex acts such as incest, frottage, voyeurism, and bestiality. Sexual acts that cause no obvious physical harm to the practitioner or the victim we term nuisance sex behaviors. This chapter is devoted to discussion of these activities. 63 04-Holmes-45515.qxd 5/28/2008 3:12 PM Page 64 64 SEX CRIMES Nuisance sex behaviors are often viewed in a less serious fashion than sex crimes that cause serious trauma and death.
