Abstract
THE AUTHORS COMPARE A GROUP OF SUCH SEXUAL AGGRESSORS WITH A GROUP OF CLINICALLY DEMONSTRABLY SADISTIC HOSPITAL ADMISSIONS IN WHOM IMAGINATIVE IDEATION BECAME INSUFFICIENT FOR DEVIANT TRAITS. THE SEXUAL AGGRESSORS WERE YOUNGER; PRESENTED HEREDITARY STIGMA; CAME FROM DISTURBED FAMILIES; HAD MINIMAL EDUCATION, SUBNORMAL OR DEFECTIVE INTELLECT, AND POOR JOBS, AND MANIFESTED ABSENTEEISM AND ALCOHOLISM. THREE REFERENCES ARE LISTED. (AUTHOR ABSTRACT MODIFIED)
