Archives of Sexual Behavior 34(3), June 2005

In this study, we examined the association of hostility, as measured by the Buss-Durkee Hostility Inventory (BDHI), with offence characteristics and recidivism in 656 adult male sexual offenders. [...] the present findings confirm and encourage treatment efforts directed toward the management of hostility and anger in sexual offenders.
