Research on the treatment and programs for people who have committed sexual offenses has greatly increased in the past decade. The aim of this review is to discuss research that has been published over that period (2010–2019) that is relevant for treatment providers. The articles included in this review were found through PsycINFO and PubMed (Medline) using the keywords “treatment or therapy” and “sex offen*”. The inclusion criteria were publications that discuss treatment of persons who have committed sexual offenses (written in the English language only). Any articles that examined only special populations were excluded, such as those that examined persons who committed sexual offenses who were female, had intellectual disabilities, deafness, juveniles, etc., because these groups will likely have needs and responsivity factors that differ from the “average” natal‐born male sex offender. Results showed that several meta‐analyses indicate that treatment is effective in reducing sexual recidivism. The most frequently used treatment for sex offenders is cognitive behavioral therapy, which is often provided in conjunction with pharmacological treatment to reduce sexual impulsivity and/or sex drive. This review is limited to the specific key search terms. The findings of this review support the use of treatment and a community reintegration approach when treating persons who have committed sexual crimes to prevent sexual recidivism.

对过去十年中对性犯罪问题的临床反应研究的叙述性综述。

在过去的十年中，针对性犯罪者的治疗和方案的研究已经大大增加。这篇综述的目的是讨论在此期间（2010-2019年）发表的与治疗提供者有关的研究。通过PsycINFO和PubMed（Medline）使用关键字“治疗或疗法”和“性犯罪*”找到了本评价中的文章。纳入标准是讨论对性犯罪者的待遇的出版物（仅以英语书写）。排除了仅检查特殊人群的任何文章，例如那些检查了性犯罪的女性，智力残疾，耳聋，未成年人等的文章，因为这些人群的需求和反应性因素可能与“平均”出生的男性性犯罪者不同。结果表明，多项荟萃分析表明治疗可有效减少性累犯。性犯罪者最常用的治疗方法是认知行为疗法，通常与药理治疗结合使用，以减少性冲动和/或性欲。该评论仅限于特定的关键搜索词。这项审查的结果支持在治疗为预防性累犯而实施性犯罪的人时使用治疗和社区重返社会的方法。性犯罪者最常用的治疗方法是认知行为疗法，通常与药理治疗结合使用，以减少性冲动和/或性欲。该评论仅限于特定的关键搜索词。这项审查的结果支持在治疗为预防性累犯而实施性犯罪的人时使用治疗和社区重返社会的方法。性犯罪者最常用的治疗方法是认知行为疗法，通常与药理治疗结合使用，以减少性冲动和/或性欲。该评论仅限于特定的关键搜索词。这项审查的结果支持在治疗为预防性累犯而实施性犯罪的人时使用治疗和社区重返社会的方法。
