Sexual dysfunction is known to occur in a proportion of rapists during the assault. The most common dysfunctions are erectile insufficiency and absent or retarded ejaculation. The study assessed the incidence and characteristics of assailants' sexual dysfunction reported by 50 victims of rape. 20% of victims reported that their assailant experienced erectile insufficiency at some point during the assault, and a further 12% reported retarded ejaculation or failure to ejaculate by their attacker. In attacks where sexual dysfunction occurred, there was a higher incidence both of intra-rape violence and commissioning of degrading sexual activity and this behaviour was related to the onset of the dysfunction. It was felt that the pattern of behaviour reported in those attacks where rapists' sexual dysfunction occurred might reflect a typologically distinct subgroup of offender. This finding has implications both for the safety of the victim during the attack and subsequent offender assessment.
已知在一部分强奸犯实施袭击的过程中会出现性功能障碍。最常见的性功能障碍是勃起功能不全以及射精缺失或延迟。该研究评估了50名强奸受害者所报告的袭击者性功能障碍的发生率及特征。20%的受害者报告称，他们的袭击者在袭击过程中的某个时刻出现了勃起功能不全，另有12%的受害者报告称袭击者射精延迟或未能射精。在发生性功能障碍的袭击中，强奸过程中的暴力行为以及实施有辱人格的性活动的发生率更高，而且这种行为与性功能障碍的发作有关。有人认为，在强奸犯出现性功能障碍的那些袭击中所报告的行为模式可能反映出一种类型上截然不同的犯罪者亚群体。这一发现对袭击过程中受害者的安全以及随后对犯罪者的评估均具有启示意义。
