“…Exposure to trauma also seems to be a contributing factor in a certain number of patients. The impact of exposure to trauma during childhood on outcome has been clearly demonstrated in EPP, and research on offenders has shown that they are more likely to have experienced physical or psychological violence during childhood than the general population (Edwards, Holden, Felitti, & Anda, 2003;Jespersen, Lalumière, & Seto, 2009;McCormack, Hudson, & Ward, 2002;Stirpe & Stermac, 2003;Weeks & Widom, 1998;Whitaker et al, 2008). The high occurrence of trauma in this population should encourage clinicians to explore this domain with caution and to take it into account when treating such patients, not only because of its impact on outcome, but also considering its impact on risk to display VB (Alameda et al, 2015;Conus, Cotton, Schimmelmann, McGorry, & Lambert, 2010;Hoptman, 2015).…”
