Exiting street-level prostitution is a complex, convoluted process. Few studies have described this process within any formal conceptual framework. This article reviews two general models and two prostitution-specific models and their applicability to the exiting process. Barriers encountered as women attempt to leave the streets are identified. Based on the four models, the barriers, the prostitution literature, and the authors' experience with prostituted women, a new integrated six-stage model that is comprehensive in scope and sensitive to women's attempts to exit prostitution is offered as a foundation for continued research on the process of women leaving the streets.
脱离街头卖淫是一个复杂而曲折的过程。很少有研究在任何正式的概念框架内描述这个过程。本文回顾了两种通用模型和两种特定于卖淫的模型,以及它们在脱离过程中的适用性。确定了女性试图离开街头时遇到的障碍。基于这四个模型、障碍、卖淫文献以及作者对卖淫妇女的经验,提出了一个新的综合的六个阶段模型,该模型在范围上具有全面性,并对女性试图脱离卖淫的行为具有敏感性,为继续研究女性离开街头的过程提供了基础。
