Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: The purpose of this study is to identify the patterns and characteristics of female sex offenders as represented in print media using content analysis of electronic newspaper accounts of female perpetrated sex offending behavior in the United States between the years of 1975 and 2006. An extensive search of online databases identifying incidents of women involved in sexual abuse, assault, exploitation, or molestation cases reported in the news media will be analyzed. This study will examine information regarding descriptive representation of the female offender, law enforcement/community portrayal of the offender, offense processes, explanation of offense, victim characteristics, and judicial processing characteristics. An attempt to classify newspaper accounts according to existing typologies of female sex offenders will be made according to the results of the content analysis. The current study will consider the applicability of newspaper coverage of female perpetrated sexual offending incidents to current knowledge of female sexual offending as a phenomenon according to extant empirical research in this area. A comparison of newspaper accounts of media reported female sex offenders with published empirical literature will be made to determine the accuracy of media portrayals. It is expected that media accounts will vary greatly from empirical knowledge.
