“…However, all respondents had been conscientiously informed about the status of the study, and they were ensured that all responses would be anonymous. Previous results showed (Kunst & Hoyer, 2003) that such a strategy leads to a reliability and validity pattern of data from offenders that cannot be discriminated from general population samples. Finally, one restriction of these studies is that they were only based on self-report information.…”

The authors applied a person-centered approach based on the five-factor model of personality to organize personality data of criminal offenders and examine psychological differences between resulting prototypes. In the first study, 91 offenders were administered the NEO Five Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI), the Antisocial Personality Questionnaire, the Inventory of Interpersonal Problems (IIP), the Borderline Personality Inventory, and the White Bear Suppression Inventory. In a second study of 102 offenders, the authors again used the NEO-FFI, IIP, and additional self-report instruments measuring psychopathological symptoms, social interaction problems, and functional and dysfunctional forms of self-consciousness. Cluster analyses revealed five prototypes that replicate previous ones from nonoffender studies. Subsequent analyses demonstrated systematic and psychologically meaningful differences between these groups in their tendencies to behave, think, and feel. These findings are discussed with reference to the advantages of the person-centered approach as a supplement to the predominant variable-centered approach of personality.

“…Dennison, Stough, & Birgden, 2001). More specifically, male prisoners score higher on Neuroticism and lower on Extraversion and Openness than the general male population sample (Kunst & Hoyer, 2003). Thus, the configuration of the personality dimension that constitutes the resilient prototype is less likely to be found in samples of prisoners or offenders.…”

Prototypes of personality were investigated in two studies. In study I, clusters of Big‐Five‐based prototypes were examined using a general population sample of 1908 German adults. Convergent evidence suggested the appropriateness of a five‐cluster solution, which corresponds to previously identified temperament based prototypes. In study II, the five‐cluster solution was cross‐validated in a sample of 256 prisoners. Moreover, it was shown that a population‐based approach (using discriminant functions derived from study I) was superior over the traditional sample‐based cluster approach (using Ward followed by k‐means). The authors argue that future typological research can be sufficiently grounded on a five‐prototype conception rather than on a three‐prototype conception, and suggest a new and flexible assignment procedure.

“…Normative data for neuroticism are available from a population-based sample of 966 German males (M = 1.66, SD = 0.67). Reliability and factor structure of the NEO-FFI have been replicated in a forensic sample of sexual offenders (Kunst & Hoyer, 2003).…”

Little is known about factors that distinguish men who act upon their self-identified sexual interest in prepubescent or pubescent children from those who do not. Even less is known about pedophiles or hebephiles who are not involved with the criminal justice system. In this study, a sample of 155 self-referred pedophiles and hebephiles was recruited from the community. All participants met DSM-IV-TR criteria for pedophilia (or paraphilia not otherwise specified for those who were sexually attracted to pubescent children). Two sets of group comparisons were conducted on sociodemographic variables and measures of dynamic risk factors. The first set was based on recent activity and compared men who had committed child pornography only or child sexual abuse offenses in the past six months with men who remained offense-free during the same period. The second set was based on lifetime offense history (excluding the most recent six months) and compared child pornography offenders with child sexual abuse offenders and men who had committed both kinds of offenses. Overall, there were more similarities than differences between groups.
