At first sight the phenomena discussed in this paper may seem to have little in common. Yet on close scrutiny it becomes apparent that there is an interesting degree of overlap. Although sexual assaults in general clearly involve multiple causes or factors, social and cultural as well as individual, many sexual aggressors do show psychological or biologic abnormalities which require careful evaluation. Continued empiric study of the variables discussed in this paper is therefore important. The clinical as well as laboratory study of paraphilias with dangerous tendencies to themselves or others is also essential for a better understanding of the causes and relationships between these disorders.
乍一看，本文所讨论的现象似乎没什么共同之处。然而，仔细审视就会发现，它们之间存在着有趣的重叠程度。虽然一般来说，性侵犯显然涉及多种原因或因素，包括社会文化因素和个人因素，但许多性侵犯者确实表现出需要仔细评估的心理或生物学异常。因此，对本文所讨论变量的持续实证研究很重要。对具有对自身或他人有危险倾向的性偏好障碍进行临床和实验室研究，对于更好地理解这些障碍的原因及相互关系也至关重要。
