简要总结
The overall aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Mi Bridge to motivate high risk participants to admit to treatment.
The main research question is:
Is Mi Bridge, an anonymous online program based on the principles for Motivational Interviewing, effective in making high risk individuals for committing child sexual abuse prone to seek treatment for problems related to sexual interest involving children at a health care facility?
详细描述
The present research project aims to contribute to the further development of accessible, evidence-based and safe care for people with sexual interest in children, and that are using child sexual abuse material (CSAM), so that these people can access treatment according to their needs and level of risk, with the objective of reducing the risk for child sexual abuse and improving the health of the group.
The intervention will be available in seven languages and will be tested in six countries.
Primary research questions:
Does Mi Bridge increase the likelihood that individuals at high risk for committing child sexual abuse accept seeking treatment for problems related to sexual interest involving minors at a health care facility?
Does Mi Bridge increase participants motivation for change regarding sexual behaviors involving minors?
