The aim of this study was to examine the emotional states preceding and during sexual and violent offenses in a Dutch sample of male forensic inpatients. Moreover, the predictive impact of these emotional states on institutional violence in the first year of mandated care was examined using an incident scheme. Observer-ratings of emotional states by 103 male offenders and 97 sex offenders were examined using Mann-Whitney tests. Using hierarchical multiple regression analyses, the predictive relationship between crime-related emotional states and incidents was examined. Sexual and violent crimes were equally preceded by painful emotions, primarily feelings of abandonment. During violent crimes, a state of bully and attack was dominant whereas sexual crimes were also characterized by self-aggrandizement and manipulation. These emotional states were not predictive for institutional violence. This study emphasizes the importance of emotional states in offending behavior and usefulness of schema therapy's crime theory.
本研究旨在考察荷兰男性法医住院患者性犯罪和暴力犯罪前及犯罪过程中的情绪状态。此外,还使用事件方案来检查这些情绪状态对强制性护理第一年机构暴力的预测影响。通过曼-惠特尼检验,对 103 名男性罪犯和 97 名性犯罪者的情绪状态进行了观察者评分。使用分层多元回归分析,检验了犯罪相关情绪状态与事件之间的预测关系。性犯罪和暴力犯罪同样以前期的痛苦情绪为主,主要是被抛弃的感觉。在暴力犯罪中,欺凌和攻击状态占主导地位,而性犯罪也以自我夸大和操纵为特征。这些情绪状态与机构暴力无关。本研究强调了情绪状态在犯罪行为中的重要性,以及 schema 治疗犯罪理论的实用性。
