Sexual Offending: Theory, Research, and Prevention

Sexual Offending is an international journal on sexual violence prevention. It disseminates diverse contributions on the etiology, assessment, treatment, and management of sexual offending, welcoming research, reviews, and case studies from scientists, clinicians, and policymakers.

Sexual Offending: Theory, Research, and Prevention (SOTRAP) is a peer-reviewed journal open to all scientists, clinicians, and policymakers researching and preventing all forms of sexual violence.

It welcomes all contributions that enhance or illuminate relevant clinical practice, science, and policy about the etiology, prevention, (risk) assessment, treatment, and management of individuals who have committed sexual offenses or are at risk of doing so. Furthermore, aspects of legal, psychological, and somatic consequences of sexual offending are of interest for the readership of SOTRAP.

Clinicians, practitioners, and academics are invited to submit research articles, reviews, meta-analyses, brief research notes/articles (e.g., brief methodological discussions), and (clinical) case reports/studies. SOTRAP is the official journal of the International Association for the Treatment of Sexual Offenders (IATSO).
