“…Numerous researchers have also highlighted the potential importance of fantasy in sexual offences (see Drieschner & Lange, 1999;McMurran, Hodge, & Hollin, 1997;Pithers, 1990;Ward & Siegert, 2002), as well as its potential significance in the etiology of sexual orientation (Storms, 1981). Despite these concerns, contemporary inquiry lacks a fully integrated theoretical framework to conceptualize the complexity of sexually aberrant behavior (Ward, 2000;Ward & Hudson, 1998b), with a number of researchers suggesting that the results of previous investigations addressing the role of sexual fantasy in aberrant sexual activity have a limited scope due to methodological considerations (Baumgartner, Scalora, & Huss, 2002;Langevin, Lang, & Curnoe, 1998;Leitenberg & Henning, 1995).…”
