People from all over the world pay for live streaming video images of minors, also called webcam child sex tourism (WCST). Although there is an increase in research about online sexual offending, relatively few studies have investigated the approaches used by people who have committed WCST offenses (PWCST). In addition, these studies describe these approaches as active-orientated without mentioning an avoidant pathway. The aim of the study was to investigate whether PWCST use similar pathways as the four offending pathways identified by Ward and Hudson. Using qualitative thematic analysis, 195 cases of online chat conversations between PWCST and operators posing as a minor were analyzed. The Ward and Hudson pathways model was partially replicable. Evidence was found for an approach and avoidant pathway. The data also suggest three other sub-pathways and a mixed pathway. Most PWCST in this study used an approach pathway to immediately approach minors for sex, which provides important insight into the diverse nature of sexual grooming.
来自世界各地的人付费观看未成年的实时流媒体视频,也被称为网络儿童性旅游(WCST)。尽管关于在线性犯罪的研究有所增加,但很少有研究调查犯有 WCST 罪行的人的犯罪手段(PWCST)。此外,这些研究将这些方法描述为主动导向,而没有提到回避途径。该研究的目的是调查 PWCST 是否使用与 Ward 和 Hudson 确定的四种犯罪途径相似的途径。使用定性主题分析,对 195 例 PWCST 与假扮成未成年人的运营商之间的在线聊天对话进行了分析。Ward 和 Hudson 的途径模型部分可复制。证据表明存在一种接近和回避的途径。数据还表明存在另外三种亚途径和一种混合途径。本研究中的大多数 PWCST 都使用接近途径立即与未成年人进行性接触,这为了解性诱骗的多样性提供了重要的见解。
