TY - JOUR PY - 2018// TI - Stranger rape: classifying Spanish sexual offences using multiple correspondence and cluster analyses JO - Journal of sexual aggression A1 - Ramírez, Meritxell Pérez A1 - López, María Sánchez A1 - Framis, Andrea Giménez-Salinas A1 - Espinosa, Manuel de Juan SP - 225 EP - 239 VL - 24 IS - 2 N2 - We have analysed the information in 342 police reports of stranger sexual offences recorded in 2010. We have carried out a multiple correspondence analysis and a cluster analysis using modus operandi variables to identify differential profiles in these types of sexual offences. We have come up with three profiles of stranger sexual offences, which concur in the two techniques used. By analysing the personal variables of the offenders with such profiles, we have found differences in terms of the offender's country of origin and age. We will discuss the consequences of these results on the police investigation of stranger sexual offences.
