The Questionnaire on Attitudes Consistent with Sexual Offending (QACSO) is an assessment developed by Lindsay, Whitefield, Carson, Broxholme and Steptoe (2004). The QACSO was designed to assess cognitive distortions relating to sexual offending in males with intellectual disabilities (ID). Cognitive distortions form part of the offence chain in sexual offending and as such require effective assessment and treatment.
The QACSO manual and studies utilizing the QACSO were examined.
An overview of characteristics of the QACSO is outlined. The strengths and limitations of the measure are discussed, including validity and reliability of the measure and normative samples.
The QACSO is a valuable tool in assessing cognitive distortions in intellectual disability sexual offenders. Whilst there are some concerns about validity and reliability which it would be beneficial to address, overall the measure has utility in forensic practice and research, and is unique for being developed specifically for intellectual disability offenders.
《性犯罪态度一致问卷》（QACSO）是 Lindsay、Whitefield、Carson、Broxholme 和 Steptoe（2004 年）开发的评估工具。QACSO 旨在评估智力障碍（ID）男性的性犯罪相关认知扭曲。认知扭曲是性犯罪链条的一部分，因此需要进行有效的评估和治疗。
检查了 QACSO 手册和使用 QACSO 的研究。
概述了 QACSO 的特点。讨论了该测量工具的优缺点，包括其有效性和可靠性，以及规范样本。
QACSO 是评估智力障碍性犯罪者认知扭曲的有价值的工具。虽然该测量工具的有效性和可靠性存在一些问题，需要进一步解决，但总体而言，该测量工具在法医实践和研究中具有实用性，并且因其专门为智力障碍罪犯而开发而具有独特性。
