Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, corporate member of Freie Universität Berlin and Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Institut für Sexualwissenschaft und Sexualmedizin, Luisenstraße 57, 10117, Berlin, Germany.
Article Synopsis
- - The study focused on men with pedophilic or hebephilic disorder who sought therapy, examining their long-term risk of Child Sexual Abuse (CSA) and use of Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) after treatment.
- - Follow-up assessments showed a high rate of recidivism for CSAM users (89.1%), while only 7.7% re-offended in CSA, indicating ongoing risks especially related to CSAM.
- - Though treatment improved empathy and reduced some supportive attitudes towards offending, these benefits can diminish over time, highlighting the need for ongoing support and a comprehensive public health strategy to prevent reoffending and enhance mental health for affected individuals.

Article Synopsis
- - The study aims to understand the behaviors of individuals who consume child sexual abuse material (CSAM) by identifying predictors of both initial and ongoing use.
- - Key findings show that significant predictors for ever viewing CSAM include being male, older age groups (25-34 and 55+), earlier exposure to adult pornography, and experiencing childhood abuse, with nearly half of initial viewers intentionally watching CSAM again.
- - The results highlight the need for prevention strategies targeting those at risk of first exposure to CSAM, as well as interventions to address continued usage after initial exposure.

Purpose Of Review: Web-based programs to prevent sexual offense perpetration could provide an opportunity that avoids many of the barriers associated with in-person treatment. The aim of this systematic review is to give an overview of the literature on web-based initiatives aimed at sexual offense perpetration prevention published during the last 10 years (2013-2023) and to report data on the efficacy as well as issues of the discussed initiatives.
Recent Findings: We included 18 empirical studies discussing web-based perpetration prevention initiatives, of which six are randomized controlled trials.
