본 연구에서는 국내에서 최초로 소아기호를 지닌 성범죄자들을 선별해내기 위한 도구인 KASI(Korean Assessment of Sexual Interest; 이수정, 2011)의 변별타당도를 확인하기 위하여 정신장애 진단기준에 근거하여 소아성애자로 규정된 아동대상 성범죄자(Pedophiliac Sex Offenders)와 소아성애를 지니고 있다고는 보기 힘든 아동을 대상으로 한 일반 아동치한범(Non-Pedophiliac Child Molesters)의 소아성애적 경향성을 비교하였다. 그 결과 개인내간에서 상대적으로 평가된 4가지 자극군(여아 자극, 남아 자극, 여성 자극, 남성 자극)에 대한 반응시간 상의 선호도에서 소아성애 집단은 일반 아동치한범에 비하여 여자 아동을 대상으로 하여 성적 매력도를 평가하라고 하였을 때 다른 자극군에 대하여서보다 상대적으로 반응시간이 더 길어지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 KASI 검사의 Rule-of-thirds 방식을 적용하여 소아성애 대한 판단을 내린 결과는 정신장애 진단기준에 근거하여 소아기호로 판단한 결과와 통계적으로 유의한 수준의 일관성을 지니는 것으로 확인되었다.
This study searched for the validity evidences of KASI(Korean Assessment of Sexual Interest; Lee, 2011) in discriminating pedophiliac sex offenders from non-pedophiliac child molesters. Pedophiliac subjects who participated in this study were 7 patients of a psychiatric unit and 5 inmates of a prison diagnosed as pedophile based on DSM-Ⅳ. 31 non-pedophiliac child molesters participated in a control group. Relative preference toward stimuli among 4 groups of pictures(pictures of girls, boys, women, and men) were measured by within-subject standard scores of viewing time by KASI. Repeated measures of ANOVA revealed that pedophiliac sex offenders had relatively longer viewing time onto the pictures of girls. Also, it was found that rule-of-thirds principle of KASI had significant consistency with the membership decision of criterion groups made by the DSM-Ⅳ.
