Sexual fantasies about one's partner versus someone else: Gender differences in incidence and frequency
Gender differences in the proportion of sexual fantasies involving someone other than a current partner (extradyadic fantasies) were explored using an anonymous questionnaire administered to 349 university students and employees (ages 18 to 70) who reported that they were currently in heterosexual relationships. Eighty‐seven percent of the sample (98% of men and 80% of women) reported having extradyadic fantasies in the past 2 months. A hierarchi…

Intergenerational Transmission of Dating Aggression as a Function of Witnessing Only Same Sex Parents vs. Opposite Sex Parents vs. Both Parents as Perpetrators of Domestic Violence
Sexual fantasy
Gender differences in masturbation and the relation of masturbation experience in preadolescence and/or early adolescence to sexual behavior and sexual adjustment in young adulthood
Guilt reactions to sexual fantasies during intercourse
Long-term effects of sexual experiences with siblings and nonsiblings during childhood
The relation between sexual activity among children during preadolescence and/or early adolescence and sexual behavior and sexual adjustment in young adulthood
Adolescent sex offenders
VioLit summary: OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study by Davis and Leitenberg was to review the research literature up to the time of writing (1987), concerning sexual offenses committed by adolescents. METHODOLOGY: This author conducted a non-experimental study of the topic of adolescent sexual violence from the available literature, covering topics of statistical incidence; characteristics of offenders, offenses, and victims; and treatment and…
Comparison of attitudes toward transsexuality and homosexuality
Foster parents teaching foster parents: Communication and conflict resolution skills training
The purpose of the present study was to examine a model of foster parent training in which specific therapeutic parenting skills (communication and conflict resolution) were taught to foster parents by other previously trained foster parents. A comparison was made of how well these skills were learned under this condition as compared to when instructors were mental health professionals. Pre-to posttest measures revealed that foster parents who re…
Nondelinquent children in state custody: Does type of placement matter
Sequential withdrawal of stimulant drugs and use of behavior therapy with two hyperactive boys
The separate and combined effects of stimulant drugs, placebos, and behavior therapy were investigated with two hyperactive boys. In each case, sequential replacement of drugs (Ritalin and Dexedrine) with placebos demonstrated placebo effects of the drugs; behavior therapy, alone and in combination with drugs, was effective in controlling hyperactive behaviors. Implications in regard to drugs as treatment of choice are discussed
Is time-out from positive reinforcement an aversive event? A review of the experimental evidence
Response Initiation and Response Termination: Analysis of Effects of Punishment and Escape Contingencies
Response frequency and response duration were manipulated in opposite directions through appropriate arrangement of punishment and escape contingencies. The experiment demonstrated that the frequency of a non-reinforced operant response could be more effectively suppressed by punishment in one group of rats than in another, even though the former group continued to take a longer time to terminate the response once it had been made. Bright light w…
