As a result, they develop feelings for and become emotionally involved with a minor. Using archival records of 789 incarcerated offenders, this study examined the prevalence of crossover offending from three victim categories across three domains (age, gender and relationship). These studies have also demonstrated that male sexual offenders engage in crossover sexual offending at higher rates than reported in other studies (e.g., Guay et al., 2001; Marshall, Barbaree & Eccles, 1991; Smallbone & Wortley, 2004). However, the relationship between crossover offending and recidivism are not conclusive. Acknowledgement
Sexual Abuse: A Journal of Research and Treatment, 14,225239. For example, risk assessment instruments are derived from research demonstrating intrafamilial child sexual abusers present a lower risk of reoffense than extrafamilial offenders (Hanson & Bussiere, 1998); as such, incest offenders are more likely to be assigned as lower risk, consequently receiving less treatment services and supervision. Researchers (e.g., Craissati, McClurg & Browne, 2002a) explain that an individual who has been raised in an emotionally impoverished environment is often unable to identify his emotions in an accurate manner and, as a result, is likely to become confused when confronted with emotionally charged situations. Three major patterns of offence behaviour have been identified at the situational end of the continuum: regressed, morally indiscriminate and inadequate.

These studies relied primarily on official records (i.e., criminal convictions), which do not take into account the possibility that many incest offenders may have undisclosed victims to whom they are not related. The self-regulation model (SRM) summarizes the offense process by examining situational precipitants (e.g., desire for deviant sex), cognitive distortions (whether entrenched or function to justify the offense), degree of control over behavior (i.e., impulsiveness or extensive planning), evaluation of sexual assault after the offense and attitude with respect to future offending (positive or negative).

More recent studies have shown that mixed-gender child sexual abusers reported the highest number of victims (Cann, Friendship & Gozna, 2007; Stephens, Seto, Goodwill & Cantor, 2016), offenses (Simons & Tyler, 2010) and the highest rates of risk for reoffense (Abel et al., 1988; Kleban, Chesin, Jeglic & Mercado, 2013).

Sexual violence against women: A psychological approach to the assessment and management of rapists in the community. Burton, D.L. Researchers contend that physical abuse, parental violence and emotional abuse result in externalizing behaviors only when they are considered in combination (Lee et al., 2002; McGee, Wolfe & Wilson, 1997). Four major patterns of offence behaviour have been identified at the preferential end: seduction, introverted, sadistic and diverse. Among female sexual offenders, Heil, Simons and Burton (2010) reported similar findings with respect to offense patterns. Child sexual abusers often develop a relationship with a child to manipulate him or her into compliance with the sexual act, which is perhaps the most damaging component of child sexual abuse (John Jay College, 2004). Indeed, this heterogeneity challenges effective risk management and treatment of offenders (Martinez-Catena, Redondo, Frerich & Beech, 2016). Compared to females who abuse alone, females who co-offend are more likely to abuse females and familial victims, to commit multiple sexual offenses (Wijkman, Bijeveld & Hendriks, 2011) and are more likely to be arrested for a non-sexual offense (Vandiver, 2006). ),RemakingRelapsePreventionWithSexOffenders: ASourcebook(pp. A great majority of indiscriminate offenders (81 percent) disclosed engaging in bestiality during childhood in comparison to fewer child sexual abusers (59 percent) and rapists (30 percent).
