Substance abuse has often been associated with committing sex offenses. In this article, the following will be reviewed: 1) studies that assessed substance abuse in sex offenders; 2) differences in substance abuse among different types of sex offenders; 3) differences in substance abuse between sex offenders and nonsexual offenders and substance abuse in the normal population; 4) sex offenders' intoxication at the time of the offense; and 5) differences in intoxication at the time of the offense among different types of sex offenders. Studies will be discussed according to the method they used to assess substance abuse, i.e., file research, screening instruments or semi-structured interviews. This review shows that about half of the sex offenders has a history of substance abuse, a quarter to half of the sex offenders has a history of alcohol misuse and that about one fifth to a quarter of the sex offenders has a history of drug misuse. Furthermore, about a quarter to half of the sex offenders appeared to be intoxicated at the time of the offense. The review results in recommendations for future research. Because of the high prevalence of substance abuse in sex offenders it is advisable to routinely screen for substance abuse and, if necessary, to treat substance abuse.
药物滥用常常与性犯罪有关。本文将回顾以下内容：1）评估性犯罪者药物滥用的研究；2）不同类型性犯罪者之间药物滥用的差异；3）性犯罪者与非性犯罪者之间药物滥用的差异以及普通人群中的药物滥用；4）犯罪时性犯罪者的醉酒情况；5）不同类型性犯罪者犯罪时醉酒情况的差异。将根据评估药物滥用的方法讨论研究，即档案研究、筛选工具或半结构化访谈。这篇综述表明，大约一半的性犯罪者有药物滥用史，四分之一到一半的性犯罪者有酒精滥用史，大约五分之一到四分之一的性犯罪者有药物滥用史。此外，大约四分之一到一半的性犯罪者在犯罪时似乎处于醉酒状态。综述结果提出了对未来研究的建议。由于性犯罪者中药物滥用的高患病率，建议常规筛查药物滥用情况，如果需要，应治疗药物滥用。
