Long-term recidivism rates of 197 child molesters released from prison between 1958 and 1974 were examined. Of the total sample, 42% were reconvicted for sexual crimes, violent crimes, or both. Other factors associated with increased recidivism were never being married and previous sexual offenses. (Author/SR)
