Purpose Of Review: Coercive sexual sadism can be distinguished from consensual BDSM (bondage discipline/dominance submission/sadism masochism) role-play and from everyday sadism, a personality trait. The purpose of this paper is to provide a systematic qualitative review of the pertinent literature on coercive sexual sadism from the last three years.
Recent Findings: Clinical assessment of sexual sadism can be made more objective through behavioral checklists based on crime scene actions.
