Participants are needed for a new research project being conducted by researchers at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD and the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health in Canada. The study aims to help the researchers evaluate the therapy model of “Talking for Change,” a program offering psychotherapy to individuals who are concerned about their sexual interest in children or risk of committing sexual crimes.

Cisgender men who are 18 or older and are sexually attracted to children 14 or younger are eligible to participate. Participation involves completing an anonymous survey. Interested potential participants may click the following link to participate or learn more:

Disclaimer:
The Talking for Change Program is not affiliated with B4U-ACT. While the rationale and funding of this study are based on CSA prevention, which we realize can be alienating for some MAPs, it also contains a significant component focusing on MAP mental health and wellbeing. For that reason, we believe it could be of benefit to some MAPs.

Participants are needed for a new research project being conducted by researchers at the University of Kent in the United Kingdom. The study aims to better understand the relationship between sexual attraction to children and fulfillment/satisfaction with life, in order to promote effective treatments and subsequent well-being for MAPs.

People who are 18 or older and identify as having an attraction to minors may be eligible to participate. Participation involves completing an approximately 10-minute survey. Interested potential participants may click the following link to participate or learn more:

We are researching how minor-attraction relates to life satisfaction, and would be grateful if you could take the time to complete our ~10-minute survey. It is completely anonymous, as IP address tracking has been disabled for the survey, and it should be accessible even when using a VPN.
