Abstract
Within the Berlin Dissexuality Therapy Program (Berlin Institute of Sexology & Sexual Medicine, 2013), clients are supported in accepting their sexual interest in children as unchangeable and inintegrating it into their self-concept. The primary goal is controlling sexual desires related to children in order to impede potential sexual offending behavior (Beier et al., 2009). Especially concerning the main outcome measures in Grundmann, Krupp, Scherner, Amelung, and Beier (2016), it can be assumed that this therapeutic strategy is supposed to have an impact on the clients’ perception of the stability of their sexual interest in children, on their expectations regarding changes in their sexual interest in children, and, consequently, on their behavioral motivation to change it (for details, see Tozdan & Briken, 2015a).
