Interpretation of nonverbal cues was tested in 12 white, male, self-admitting rapists. All rapists were being treated for depression and were between the ages of 20 and 31. All victims were female strangers who had been observed in a social setting. The rapists and 12 age- and class-matched male controls viewed 10 male and 10 female volunteers during a specific gambling trial. Rapists were found to be more accurate than controls in interpreting both female and male nonverbal cues. This enhanced ability was hypothesized to be due to pathological expressions of intimacy and sexuality in the rapists' families of origin.
对12名承认自己有强奸行为的白人男性强奸犯进行了非语言线索解读测试。所有强奸犯都因抑郁症正在接受治疗，年龄在20至31岁之间。所有受害者都是在社交场合中被观察到的陌生女性。在一项特定的赌博试验中，这些强奸犯和12名年龄及社会阶层匹配的男性对照者观看了10名男性和10名女性志愿者。结果发现，强奸犯在解读女性和男性的非语言线索方面比对照者更准确。据推测，这种增强的能力是由于强奸犯原生家庭中亲密关系和性行为的病态表现所致。
