relapse prevention to repetitive, compulsive sex offenders.

distortions; relapse prevention focuses on pattern recognition and breaking the
cycle of recommitting sex crimes.
The program is rated Promising. The intervention
participants were 2.4 times less likely to recidivate, compared with the
general prison-population comparison group
