Deviant sexual arousal has been identified as a key characteristic of teenage recidivists.(1). A recent Safer Society survey showed that over 90 percent of adolescent offender programs endorse the reduction of deviant sexual arousal as a treatment objective.(2) In spite of this, fewer than half of the programs surveyed utilized direct methods to counter deviant arousal, because they are considered either too intrusive or ineffective. Vicarious Sensitization raises few of the political, ethical, and motivational objections commonly associated with conditioning methods.
