• Were Wolfgang's chronic offenders psychopaths? On the convergent validity between psychopathy and career criminality (2008, background): “Also using sex offender samples, Porter et al. (2000) found that psychopathic offenders were significantly likely to commit both rape and child molestation, suggesting a versatile pattern of aggression irrespective of whether the victim was a child or adult.”
• DO SOME EVALUATORS REPORT CONSISTENTLY HIGHER OR LOWER PCL-R SCORES THAN OTHERS? Findings From a Statewide Sample of Sexually Violent Predator Evaluations (2008, background): “sexually offend against adults (Porter et al., 2000; 2001).”
• Crime profiles and conditional release performance of psychopathic and non‐psychopathic sexual offenders (2009, methodology): “Previous research has linked psychopathy with particular types of sexual violence (e.g. Porter et al., 2000), greater levels of violence during the commission of sexual offences (e.g. Gretton, McBride, Hare, O’Shaughnessy, & Kumka, 2001), and with sexual aggression in non-offender samples (e.g.…”

In general, we used (more reliable) continuous scoring to conduct statistical tests and prevalence rates to represent the category comparisons. Using the continuous s”
• Psychopathy and the predictive validity of the PCL-R: an international perspective. (2000, background): “The prevalence of psychopathy differs among various types of sex offender (e.g., Brown & Forth, 1997; Miller, Geddings, Levenston, and Patrick, 1994; Porter et al., 2000; Quinsey, Rice, & Harris, 1995).”
• AFFECT, EMOTIONS AND SEX OFFENDING (2004, result): “Thus, the over-representation of psychopathy in the sex offender population (Porter et al. , 2000) supports the notion that emotional deficits may be causally related to sex offending, as do the findings that psychopathy scores are predictors of future sex offending (Seto and Barbaree, 1999; Serin…”
• Psychopathy and Recidivism in Adolescent Sex Offenders (2001, background): “The results of a study by Porter et al. (2000) are consistent with this view.”
