Popis: Although taxonomic systems for rapists have been developed to facilitate management, treatment, and disposition decisions, little work has been done to date to delineate a typology for sexual aggressors in dating relationships. The typological grouping for sexual aggressors involved in "date" or "acquaintance" rape proposed in this paper includes two major categories, each with three subtypes. The Primary Sexual Aggressor category includes the subtypes of Relational, Hyposocial, and Exploitative; the second category, Primary Aggressive Aggressors, consists of Assaultive, Explosive, and Diffused subtypes. This classification should assist in the implementation of treatment and prevention programs and lead to a better understanding of the differential effects of sexual aggressor subtypes upon victims. Research is ongoing to validate and refine this typology.
