Abstract

A successful case study of behavior therapy with a pedophile is described, in which pedophilia is viewed as a multifaceted pattern of aberrant sexual arousal with accompanying excesses and deficits in other significant social and sexual areas. Aversive deconditioning procedures and graded social skills training were employed. The implications of this study are discussed with regard to therapy strategies and generalization effects.
