Abstract
This study was designed to examine the number of victims reported over the course of treatment by 12- to 17-year-old juvenile sex offenders adjudicated to a treatment program. Records were reviewed at four time periods to ascertain the number of victims disclosed at each time period: at the time of conviction, assessment phase (1st day of treatment until polygraph), at the polygraph examination, and from the day of the polygraph to discharge. Results indicated that additional victims (M = 2.39, SD = 3.50) were reported over the participants' time in the program, with the most additional victims being reported during the assessment phase prior to the polygraph, which was from 6-12 weeks after the day of their placement in the program.
