Previous studies have not considered possible racial differences. More aggressive responses by police and the criminal justice system as well as cultural differences in victim type\/reporting rates may result in differences between detection rates of Black versus White men. In the current study ( N = 190), we examined the difference between Black ( n = 51) and White ( n = 139) men committed to a forensic hospital as a Sexually Violent Person on factors that could impact the detected rate. Overall, we found that White men had significantly more total victims, undetected victims, undetected and detected child victims, total male victims, undetected male victims, undetected acquaintance victims, and total (detected and undetected) acquaintance victims than Black men. Black men had significantly more detected adult victims, but this difference did not remain when accounting for undetected victims. We explore reasons for these differences as well as provide recommendations for practice.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/10790632241268472","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,31]],"date-time":"2024-07-31T15:04:38Z","timestamp":1722438278000},"page":"875-900","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["The Influence of Race on Detected and Undetected Sexual Offense Histories: A Comparison of White and Black Men Committed as Sexually Violent Persons"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"36","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8129-237X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sharon M.","family":"Kelley","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Sand Ridge Secure Treatment Center, Madison, WI, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rachel E.","family":"Kahn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sand Ridge Secure Treatment Center, Madison, WI, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gangaw","family":"Zaw","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of State Hospitals-Forensic Services Division, Sacramento, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-10790632241268472","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/088626087002001001"},{"key":"bibr2-10790632241268472","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/1068316X.2023.2227313"},{"key":"bibr3-10790632241268472","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/lhb0000517"},{"key":"bibr4-10790632241268472","unstructured":"American Civil Liberties Union and The Sentencing Project.
