<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>I have a
couple of questions for the listserv. I am currently working with a
number of young men referred to our agency who have engaged in molesting young
victims—both family and non-family. I am curious to know what
research is available regarding the following issues:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

address their sexually acting out behavior? What factors are most

documenting the recidivism rate of youth who do not complete sex offender
treatment? For example, what would the rate be for kids who are simply
incarcerated and not treated compared to a treatment group? Or what is
the recidivism rate of kids who participate in some form of generic residential
or outpatient treatment as opposed to treatment specifically for sexually
maladaptive youth?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

literature indicating that treatment for sexually maladaptive youth loses its
effectiveness after a certain length of time in treatment. I’ve
even heard that it becomes counterproductive at some point. Is this true
