TY - JOUR PY - 2000// TI - An examination of the role of neuropsychological deficits in mentally disordered sex offenders JO - Journal of sexual aggression A1 - Gillespie, Nicola K. A1 - McKenzie, Karen SP - 21 EP - 29 VL - 5 IS - 1 N2 - The present study examines the neuropsychological model of sexual offending proposed by Flor-Henry (1987) in relation to a group of mentally disordered sex offenders and a control group of mentally disordered non-sex offenders. The model predicts that the sex offender group would show specific left fronto-temporal dysfunction as compared with the control group. The results, while in the predicted direction, failed to reach statistical significance. Implications and limitations of the study are discussed.
