Abstract

Sexual offenders often commit more than one sexual assault, but there is variability in how many assaults they commit and in what pattern over time. Trajectory modeling studies typically use criminal history records as a data source to model perpetrators' sexual assault convictions, but this may underestimate the scope of offending because so few sexual assaults result in a conviction.
