The tendency to report to others such minor sexual offense as exhibitionism was estimated by using a three alternative seven point scale. Guilt was assessed by the Mosher Forced-Choice Guilt Inventory (MFCGI) scale which uses referents from Freud's theoretical conception of guilt. A lower inclination for third party involvement, generated by inhibition formation, was significantly related to the hostile guilt incidence score indicated by the MFCGI.

Gebhard et al. (1965), found that adults are in general more likely to report directly to the police than are minors, and minors report the offense directly more often than do children. Overall, they observed that in exhibition, about half of the cases were turned in to the police by the offended female. Landis (1956), investigating the childhood experi- ences of 1,800 college students with sexual deviates, dis- covered that almost one in two of the victims had told their parents. He also noticed that a child is more willing to tell her parents about the stranger who exposes himself to her than about other sexual offenses or indecent liberties, which are usually committed by individuals known to the child: Friends predominate in heterosexual offenses vs. minors or adults, and also are fairly evident in homosexual offenses involving children or minors (Gebhard et al., 1965, p. 775). Landis explains this difference by the fact that the girl is usually a little older when she encounters an exhibition— ist, and, he being someone she most of the times has never seen before (well over 90 percent of the cases: Gebhard et al., 1965, p. 774), she feels that there could be no impli- cation of possible cooperation on her part in the uncon- gruous behavior she witnesses. As may be expected, various factors operate on a victim in deciding whether to report or conceal a sexual offense. This study will examine a theoretical conception of the inhibitive tendency generated by guilt not to report to others an incidence of violation of social code of con- duct of a sexual nature. The purpose of the present investigation is to assess the relationship between the level of guilt experi— enced by the victim of an instance of psychosexual offense, namely exhibitionism, and a nonreportive attitude subsequent to the incident. It is hypothesized that we will find a significant correlation between the victim's level of guilt and a nonreportive behavior due to unconscious material that engenders acute tension in the victim. Mosher (1966) suggests that guilty 58 should condition more readily to "superego" or guilt-related content than should less guilty Ss. Furthermore, Nunberg (1955) advises us that a tense person reacts to danger differently from a normal individ- ual: The tense person develops a latent readiness for explosion which through an additional influx of fear from the perception of danger, causes him to become paralyzed (p. 195). It is assumed here that an individual, whose preconscious inclination toward guilt with respect to his unresolved instinctual impulses prevents him from normal social trust, is basically a tense creature. Therefore, it is not unreasonable to anticipate that the situation referred to in the present discussion would sharply increase his tension level, possibly to the point of anxiety hysteria seen by Fenichel as the "simplest kind of psychoneurosis." THEORETICAL BACKGROUND Galton (1884) stated one of the most notable dif- ferences between people lay in emotional temperament. He indicated that "a sudden excitement, call, touch, gesture, or incident of any kind always evokes, in different persons, a response that varies in intensity, celerity, and quality" (Goodstein & Lanyon, 1971, p. 7). Nunberg's view (1955) on the reactive comportment of an individual has a similar aspect: The reaction of anyone to an outer stimulus is simple and clear: either it is accepted and assimilated in one way or another, or it is rejected through defense or flight (p. 55). Indeed, the determining factors making one adopt one attitude over another in response to an external cause are likely to be found in the realm of psychic and moral disposition. In point of fact, it has been argued in some interpretations of moral development that different reactions and attitudes are to be expected from adoles- cents on the basis of their level of moral consciousness (Piaget, 1948; Kohlberg, 1958; Durkin, 1959). Aronfreed (1968) has dealt in detail with the development of the child's conscience and the manner in which this development affects the child's conduct. His 4 general feeling is that "conscience involves those areas of conduct where social experience has attached substantial affective value to the child's cognitive representation and evaluation of his behavior" (p. 6). He adds, however, that, as far as analyzing the various psychogenic dynamisms of an adolescent‘s responsive attitude, it is the uncon- scious layer of that individual's psychological make-up that we ought to examine rather than his level of moral consciousness. This position is certainly in line with Kardiner's (1939) who advises us to look for the presence of neurotic guilt in case of instinctual reactions. Nunberg (1955), detects in the feeling of guilt the introduction of a powerful moral factor, which he describes as "a state of mind which results from real or intended inhibitions imposed by the superego on the ego” (p. 159). Gerhart and Singer (1953) describe this moral factor in a more dramatic way, referring to it as "the painful internal tension generated whenever the emotionally highly charged barrier erected by the superego is being touched or transgressed." Stein (1968) reminds us that Freud made it clear that neurotics were kept anxious, guilty, and restricted by "compulsions and depressions because of their fearful overresponses to their sexual and aggressive impulses which were defensively avoided rather than consciously related to" (p. 142). Horney (1930) has indicated that we may also expect in this situation a reaction formation of excessive inhibition aiming at masking the repressed drive for expression, due to anxiety from a guilty neurotic superego whenever confronted with an outer stimulus likely to cathect one's pregenital needs. As a result, we have the executive activity of the affected person completely suppressed, and the establishment of the psychic con- stellation known as inhibition (p. 111). Thus, we see that through his anxiety, which is an anticipation of danger, an individual protects himself against incongruous grati- fication of his dormant erotic and destructive instinctual tendencies whose presence is due to a neurotic superego that has kept him fixed to his infantile conditioning. For Nunberg, this infantile social anxiety forms the core of what later becomes the "fully developed sense of guilt." But he adds that, in nonpathological cases, the individual will have suppressed his oral, anal, and aggressive impulses: The normally adapted child complies with social standards (p. 159). Fenichel (1945) mentions that the clinical basis of the new Freudian theory is the existence of aggression: Aggressive tendencies of all kinds constitute a con— siderable proportion of all human drives. In part, they manifest a reactive character, which means that they are the response to frustrations and have as their goal the overcoming of frustrations (p. 58). Kardiner (1939) agrees with that, saying that "all forms of contact with an object can be considered aggres- sive, and all human relationships contain an element of aggression" (p. 57), adding, however, that an individual always has some technique for its expression whether con- trolled and checked by social pressure or neurosis. Regard- ing this point, Kardiner reminds us that "the social force which in the family is exercised as parental authority, particularly that of the father, becomes, through inter- nalization of parental prohibitions and precepts, a faculty with attributes of morality and power in the form of the superego" (p. 65). For Freud (1927, 1930, 1933) it is also the process of identification with the parents that leads to the acqui- sition by the child of standards of moral behavior, and it is the violation of these internalized rules of moral and social conduct that lead to guilt at a later stage of moral development. Ruma and Mosher (1967) corroborate this assertion by bringing new substantiation to the belief that, "while the young child avoids transgressing moral standards due to fear of external punishment from the parents, the older child will avoid transgressing moral standards to prevent the painful emotional experience of the guilt feeling proper." Kardiner explains that "the controlling external force is transformed so as to Operate from within, thus becoming a fear of a psychic faculty which the individual has erected within himself. Hence, in place of a fear of external authority, there is an inner anxiety" (p. 65). Nunberg suggests that "the feeling of guilt, in the strict sense of the term, develops out of conflict not with the external world, but rather with the internal world" (p. 159). While social anxiety brings about the child's first adaptation to society, guilt, on the other hand, provides the necessary energy against the release of instinctual impulses. This faculty of self-observation which, according to Kardiner, includes ideals originating in reaction for- mations against forbidden instinctual tendencies, results in "the fear of consequences of certain assertive tendencies" (p. 63), which are therefore quickly inhibited or expressed in such a way that "the original aggression is turned on the subject himself" (p. 64). At this point, we think appropriate to stress the strong relation of the sense of shame to external con— ditions. In effect, Kardiner makes it clear that this particularity can be easily proved in individuals who presumably have no sense of guilt about certain activities until they are obliged to talk about them to someone else: Under the conditions of secrecy, guilt or discrepancy between ego and super-ego is tolerated without much conflict. As soon as the outer world is included, the guilt breaks out afresh (p. 74). We wish to point out that, for Freud shame rather than guilt was related to sexuality in general, and especially so to the one aspect of sexuality that interests the present research. Gerhart and Singer (1953) underline the fact that Freud saw in sexual exhibitionism "a clinical situation in which the subsequent feelings of guilt really concealed a shame problem." We surmise that this pathological phenomenon can likewise be observed in the victim of such an offense, as a verification of Anna Freud's concept of ”identification with the aggressor." Sarnoff (1951) reminds us that before the child reaches the verbal level, he tends to use identi- ficatory thinking exclusively: he will internalize whatever attitudes his parents have toward him, both positive and negative. "If the self-attitudes thus acquired are essen- tially negative," adds Sarnoff, ”the child's feelings of internal weakness motivate him to incorporate the charac- teristics of others whom he perceives to be powerful and threatening." This inclusion occurs unconsciously and serves to diminish the anxiety aroused in the self as it encounters ego threatening situations. Balint (1945) suggests that "the capacity to resist the use of identification as a means of dealing with threatening external objects develops out of the kind of interpersonal relationships the child has experienced." 10 And, finally, Nunberg observes that "whether an identifi- cation is total or partial, it always fulfills an aim, and often expresses something in common with the person with whom one is identifying." Hence, we ought to consider that if inhibition and anxiety hysteria are used as defense mechanisms against exposure to exhibitionistic compulsion, perhaps the feeling of guilt, experienced at the preconscious level which conse- quently protects the victim's ego, is in effect a reaction to some instinctual demand suddenly awakened by the sexual confrontation. Perhaps also, it is the nature of the reaction which accounts for the subsequent sense of shame, and the victim's reluctance to tell anyone about the event, this attitude resulting from the ensuing feeling of degra- dation. Let us remember that the severity of a neurotic superego gives one a low frustration threshold. Nunberg feels that the sense of guilt not only interferes with objectionable instinct gratification and increases instinct tension, but it may also procure maso- chistic gratification (p. 171). For Helene Deutsch (1925), who was the first to introduce the concept of feminine masochism, "every masochistic function contains a component of moral masochism that serves to gratify guilt feelings" (p. 263). Similarly, Nunberg sees in moral masochism the influence of the superego, as sadism or a pregenital sexual need is deflected from the object onto the ego, and 11 discharged there. As a result, "an active instinctual drive—~the sadistic attitude of the id toward the external world-~is changed into a passive one--the passive attitude of the ego" (Nunberg, 1955, p. 170). This displacement of the psychic stress from the object onto the ego that characterizes our nonreportive subjects is simply the mechanism of the common psychological phenomenon known since Jung (1921) as introverted feeling which is "aroused by internal or subjective conditions, especially primordial images arising out of archetypes" (Hall et al., 1973, p. 100). In order to illustrate what we mean, we would predict that, in the case of the victim of an indecent exposure, the person who has a high hostility guilt inci- dence, when compelled into such a psychologically threaten— ing situation, will identify with the perceived threat--her own instinctual impulse cathected by this startling sexual offense-~and absorb it into her ego rather than expressing any resentment toward the actual threat. Her superego is then able to discharge its aggressive feeling against the representative of the object within the ego. The ego, however, which identifies with the sexual situation, enjoys this aggression masochistically. And, we end up having, in agreement with Nunberg's view, "a libidinal masochistic relationship between the ego and the superego" (Nunberg, 1955, p. 170). 12 A libidinal striving is added to the feeling of guilt toward hostile thoughts, and her morality is debased to the level of masochism. Thus, we recognize the situ- ation of a nonreportive person who has just been the victim of an instance of sexual perversion. Freud (1924, 1937) has at various times called attention to the difficulty in psychoanalysis of conquering a severe unconscious sense of guilt. Fenichel (1945) reminds us that "children exhibit numerous types of instinctual behavior which in content are identical with the drives which in perverse individuals replace normal sexuality" (p. 56). Hence, a fixation at any pregenital stage of development will very likely have some dramatic influence upon adult psychosexual personality traits. Fenichel also advances that "there are various frequent specific inhibitions of aggressiveness due to anxieties and guilt feelings in persons whose aggressive or sadistic tendencies have been repressed" (p. 178). These individuals, as a rule, avoid all arguments, all manifestations of hostile nature. This attitude soon becomes an unvarying entity, exerting a continuous influ- ence upon functioning, which has been called by Allport (1961) "the personal disposition" of an individual and described as a generalized neuropsychic structure of over- powering force. 13 Thus, concludes Nunberg, the component instincts may establish the path for the genital function or inhibit it to a certain degree. While the normal superego of an individual undergoes changes in accordance with the external reality, reflects Kardiner (1939), the neurotic superego will tend to be tainted with its infantile conditioning. Nunberg feels that in some cases sexual relation— ships can be approached only with the help of fantasies belonging to the pregenital stages: If they are conscious, they border on perversion; if they are unconscious, they form an integral part of the neurosis. While in the perversion, the instinctual impulse is conscious and active, in hysteria, for instance, it is unconscious and repressed (p. 268). RESEARCH HYPOTHES IS MacDonald (1973) expresses the view that the diversity of reactions to exhibitionism is related to the presence of threats of violence, the age of the victim, her cultural background, personality, and prior sexual experiences. He notes that reactions range from lack of concern or deceptive apparent lack of concern through mild irritation, fear, anger, disgust, to marked emotional dis- turbances. Be that as it may, our particular investi- gation will cover only the relationship between the ten- dency to report such a manifestation of social and psycho- sexual deviance to others and the level of hostility- guilt of the victim, as measured by the Mosher Forced- Choice Guilt Inventory (MFCGI). Mosher (1968) explains that measuring guilt, conceptualized as a disposition, becomes relevant in situations where Opportunity to vio- late moral standards is present. Females who score higher on these guilt measures are expected to inhibit the expression of aggressive or sexual behaviors when faced with temptation. Hence, we anticipate that the higher on the Hostility-Guilt scale of the MFCGI the subject scores, the more likely she is to experience stress as a result of 14 15 her low frustration threshold. It is expected that we will observe at that point the undergoing by the High Hostility Guilt Girl (HHGG) of an acute form of anxiety hysteria, from which, as it is seen in most cases of neurosis, she can only escape through the use of autoplastic measures, such as symptom formation. Regarding this point, Nunberg (1955) reminds us that the purpose of symptom formation is to remove the anxiety or to escape from the situation of danger: The symptom offers two advantages: (1) through it the ego evades the instinct demands; (2) the ego gains the capacity of removing the anxiety (p. 301). In this particular situation, the HHGG will sup- posedly try to escape from the inner state of tension that she experiences as a consequence of the hostile sexual exposure, first, by fleeing away from the actual threat, and secondly, by inhibiting all hostile impulses generated by the incident. In doing so, she protects herself through her symptom formation against her perceived threat, i.e., the hypercathexis of her component instincts. Hence, because of this mechanism of defense against affect through symptom formation, it is expected that a never-married coed female with a high incidence of hos- tility guilt will not report the incident to others if exposed to hostile sexual deviance. Conversely, a never- married coed female scoring low on the Hostility-Guilt 16 scale of the MFCGI, who therefore is not expected to experience the affect of guilt, will not manifest any evi— dence of psychoneurotic reaction. She is therefore expected to be more likely to report to others an inci- dence of hostile sexual nature if confronted with such. Nunberg makes the point that "a hysterical symptom is among other things a memory symbol of a real affective experience" (p. 267). A comprehensive knowledge of the individual appears indispensable. "Indeed, proposes Kardiner, the distinctions between individual character formations depend on the different habitual attitudes, perCeptions, and action formulas to the same external stimuli which each individual creates for himself" (p. 86). Bloch and Prince (1967) argue that "human behavior may be perceived only in relation to an activating situation to which the person responds selectively. Why the indi— vidual responds as he does to certain situations and the key elements of and not to others, depends upon the link- ages he has established with the past, or specifically incidents within similar situations" (p. 139). We realize that in view of those important con- siderations we should have investigated the history of each HHGG thoroughly, hoping to find at some stage of her development the unconscious material responsible for their deviate reaction. This we could not do because of the anonymity of the major portion of our subject sample. 17 However, a fair number of the coeds personally approached, who had had the experience of being subjected to indecent exposure, agreed to narrate to us what had happened on those occasions. The recountal was tape-recorded and practically uninterrupted. In Appendix 2, the interviews are given on a strictly informative basis and were no part of the data used in the present study. Statistical Hypothesis On this basis, the following hypothesis is the target of our inquiry: Female 85 who score high on the MFCGI hostile guilt subscale are less likely to show interest for third party involvement in case of incidence of unasked sexual exhibitionism than are female 83 whose hostile guilt scores are low. Ho: the observed difference in guilt incidence in the female's tendency to report the indecent exposure incident to a third party occurred by chance, given the distribution in the population of HHG individuals and LHG individuals are the same. p < .05 H.: the population of HHG individuals and LHG individ- uals differ in the distribution of propensity to report indecent exposure occurrences to a third party. H : P1 = P2 against Hi: P1 ¢ P2 EXPERIMENTAL DES IGN One hundred and ten never-married females were chosen without random sampling design on the campuses of Michigan and Washington State universities, and were given an envelope containing one copy of the MFCGI and one copy of a questionnaire designed to measure their personal dis- position to divulge an incident involving sexual exhibition- ism. They were asked to answer both tests and to return the answer sheets by mail, using the self-addressed enve— lope provided. Out of the 110 coeds, a total of 69 returned the answer sheets completed. Forty-three answers came from Michigan State, and 26 answers were returned from Washington State. Ages varied from 18 to 25, with a mode of 19, and a mean of 20. All participants were chosen by chance, in the following manner: -- 24 were personally approached and asked whether they had the time to spare, either as they were walking on campus or sitting on buses serving the campus of MSU; 18 19 -— 18 returned the answer sheets by mail after they had been deposited in their mailbox out of 25 names chosen at random; -- finally, 25 out of 50 returned the answer sheets that had been left in a pile in one of the WSU dormitories. Measure of Guilt The participants completed the 78—item Mosher forced-choice guilt inventory. The 78 items are to be scored at four points along a guilt dimension: very guilty (2), guilty (1), nonguilty (-l), very nonguilty (-2). Three subcategories of guilt (sex guilt, hostile guilt, and morality-conscience guilt) are distinguished. Using the scoring weights mentioned above, theoretically the 39 sex guilt items scores could range from 64 to -61; the 22 hostile guilt items could range from 33 to -33; and the 17 morality—conscience items could range from 27 to -24. Split—half reliability coefficients for each of the three scales are in the .903. Mosher (1966a) has provided evi- dence of the convergent and discriminant validity of the guilt scales in a multitrait-multimethod matrix analysis. A series of construct validational studies (Galbraith, 1964; Lamb, 1963; Mosher, 1961, 1965, 1966; Mosher & Mosher, 1967; Ruma & Mosher, 1967) has been offered to support the Mosher scales as measures of guilt. The MFCGI assumes to measure the individual's generalized expectancy 20 for self-mediated punishment for violating or anticipating the violation of internalized standards of proper behavior (Ruma & Mosher, 1967). In the present research, only the scores of the 22 hostile guilt items are relevant and confronted with the scores obtained on the tendency to report scale (see Table 1). Measure of Tendency to Report Seven "suggested confidants" were proposed to the following question: should an unknown male, for whom you would not have otherwise any positive or negative feeling, indecently expose himself to you against your will, would you tell any of the persons mentioned here about this experience? Three alternatives were given: yes; maybe; and no. One point was accorded for each confidant checked in any one of the three alternative columns (see Table 2). Interviews Five of the respondents personally approached during the course of the study informed us that they had experienced an incident of indecent exposure. They agreed to tell us about what happened, how they felt, and who knew about it. We tape-recorded the interviews with their consent, the transcript verbatim of which appears in Appendix 3. 21 We chose to include this aspect of the research on a limited basis to provide further information about perceptual responses of a subset of Ss. RESULTS Restating the hypothesis in terms of the specific measure used to operationally define the constructs, it was predicted that the overall tendency to report an indecent exposure of coeds who are high on the measure of the MFCGI hostility—guilt subcategory will be lower than the overall tendency to report an indecent exposure of coeds who are low on the same scale. The instinctual impulse-guilt-affect was expected to create a higher emotional upset than the external threat in and of itself. Thus, coeds who score high on hostility-guilt were expected to have a lower tendency to report than coeds who score low on hostility-guilt. The obtained range (see Table 1) was for the hostility-guilt scores from +27 to -33 with a mean of 13.95; a median of +1; two modes of -11 and +11; and a standard deviation of 7.3. The admitted propensity to divulge an incidence of exhibitionism to a third party (see Table 2) was lower for the HHGG group on all proposed confidants, except with regard to their best friend where their tendency to report matches the tendency to report of the LHGG group.

Tables 3, 4, and 5 (see Appendix 1) contain the means, variances, standard deviations and standard scores of the YES propensity, the MAYBE propensity, and the NO propensity for the HHGG group and Tables 6, 7, and 8 (see Appendix 1) contain the same informations for the LHGG group. A x2 test, for independence between our two vari- ables, i.e., guilt over hostility and propensity to report exhibitionism incidences to others, was conducted (see Appendix 2). The resulting x2 test was significantly different from chance expectations p < .001 indicating that the interaction between those two measures has a positive negative effect upon the victim's reactive atti- tude to indecent exposure. The presence of the significant interaction between hostility-guilt incidence revealed in Table 1, page 24, and an examination of the descriptive statistics reported in Tables 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8, in Appendix 1, indicate the hypothesis was supported and confirmed by the Pearson correlation found in Tables 9 and 10 (see Appendix 1). 28 Finally, an ANOVA of tendency to report was con- ducted. Again, as with the x2 the null hypothesis was rejected and the independent variable was seen as producing an effect p < .05 in the expected direction: coeds who scored low on hostility-guilt were more likely to report an occurrence of sexual deviance than were the high hostility guilt coeds (see Tables 11 and 12, in Appendix 2). CONCLUSION By and large, the data have supported the construct validity of the Mosher measure of hostility guilt. Females who are predisposed to responding with guilt over "intem- pestive" sexual behavior, admitted limiting their reaction pattern to themselves in higher percentage than the females who were not similarly predisposed. However, aspects of the results are surprising. It was expected that the LHGG should be more likely to report an incidence of maladaptive sexual behavior, and this was the case. Also, it was expected that the HHGG who are in a state of psychic disturbance, brought about by anxiety and defense over the indecent exposure, should have a strong tendency of not reporting to others, and this was not exactly the case. Social determinism apparently being a common organizing agent for both groups in the response pattern of the majority of the participants, the norm was to con- fide in somebody the deviant encounter. Still, the inhibitive neurotic reaction processes appeared to be over three times as prevalent in the HHGG category than in the LHGG category. 29 30 In addition, another unanticipated result shows that most pe0ple of either group would be least likely to report to the police such event than to any other sug- gested confidant (Table 2). Their main reason seems to be that exhibitionism does not physically injure another person. They see the "performer" as a minor sex pervert whose conduct offends good morals, and tend to see his act as improper rather than illegal. To most of them, it is simply something that "has happened during the day worthy of telling close friends": for LHGG, their best friend, boyfriend, and roommate; for HHGG, only their best friend. Hence, they tend to feel that law enforcement intervention resulting in the arrest, the indictment, and the incarceration of the exhibitionist would be an exces- sive punishment. Rickles (1950) reports that his personal experience has conclusively shown that the public need have no fear of exhibitionists: they are not a physical threat to anyone. There is a possibility, however, that young children especially girls, may suffer some degree of psychic trauma as a result of being witnesses to their act (Rickles, 1950, p. 42). Ellis and Brancale (1956) have observed through their study of 300 sex offenders that force or duress is virtually never employed by sex offenders convicted of exhibitory acts (p. 50). However, according to MacDonald (1973), force or threat is occasionally used by the 31 exhibitionist. He found out that four out of 200 exhibition- ists he studied used force, three followed their victim, and two chased their victims (MacDonald, 1973, p. 54). Naturally, in that case, feelings change: criminal charges and prison sentences seem to be appropriate, agreed most of the coeds interviewed. However, it is likely that if a man grabs a woman, the probability is great that he is more of an assaulter than a mere exhibitionist. Landis (1956) found that overall, "younger girls were more seriously affected by deviate sexual experiences than were older girls" (pp. 30-31). "But," says Rickles (1950), "even this is not serious unless it is made so by the exaggerated reactions of parents or other adults" (p. 42). MacDonald (1973) even mentions the occurrence of surprisingly frequent cases in which rough neighborhood children tease what they consider a potential exhibition- ist while one of them goes and gets the police (p. 78). Finally, Sagarin (1974) seems to express a widely shared opinion in the following statement: The career exhibitionist that violates the norms of society is more of a nuisance to the victim or the community than a threat in the usual criminal sense, and is probably best handled by a combination of legal and psychiatric processes (p. 159). A combined scheme mixing court injunction and family therapy appears advisable since oftentimes "only legal pressure can keep exhibitionists in psychotherapy" 32 (Mathis & Collins, 1970). Lester (1975) concedes that a few exhibitionists intend their act to be an invitation to further sexual involvement, but the great majority of exhibitionists do not want sexual involvement with the audience (p. 7). Yet, when suddenly confronted in a lonely place by a man with his penis exposed, there is little inclination on the part of the female to find out whether he is a rapist, or a mere exhibitionist. Gebhard etial. (1965) are convinced that exhi- bitionists expose themselves without any conscious drive to provoke a sexual approach from the female and would be disturbed or embarrassed if a female responded in this fashion: Often we asked exhibitionists what they would do if a female to whom they had exhibited were to make a sexual approach. The answer was not infrequently: "Well, I don't know . . . . I guess I'd run away" (p. 391). On the whole, conclude Gebhard et al. exhibitionists are to be pitied rather than feared (p. 399). V Accordint to Ullerstam (1966), Kinsey considers that the exhibitionists' only problem derives from the reaction of their environment (p. 4). Ullerstam advocates that every human being has his own pattern of talents and abilities; likewise, he has an urge pattern, consisting of various habits of sexual behavior, such as exhibitionism (p. 32). 33 Malmquist (in Resnik & Wolfgang, 1972) reminds us that perverse development is a failure of polymorphous elements to undergo transitions and become subsumed under striving for heterosexual objects with coitus as a goal (p. 75). Gebhard et a1. (1965), point out that "a combina- tion of insecurity, real or imagined emotional deprivation, and sense of failure is common among patterned exhibition- ists, and the exposure may be a simultaneous expression of retaliation, declaration of masculinity, and sexual solicitation" (p. 397). However, "the exhibitionist is a person for whom exhibition is a desired end in itself" assures Gebhard et a1. "Surely," comments Ullerstam, "the fact that a pathological process creates its own potential for pleasure, cannot, in itself, justify a desire to force these people to lead unhappy lives" (p. 4), urging his readers to "allow our fellow human beings the beneficial magic of the exhibitionistic rite" (p. 67), and above all "not to report him to the police." Indeed, punishing an individual as a "criminal" on account of a poor decision of norm violation may not simply annihilate any chance for that individual to understand the teleological raison d'étre of the law that he violated, but, and this we see as critical in and of itself, his social reinsertion almost certainly will be difficult. 34 Exhibitionism is considered to be a criminal act by almost every state in the nation~~indecent exposure is not mentioned in the Alaska Statutes-~being seen as either a gross misdemeanor for a first offense in most states or as a felony punishable by imprisonment in state prison for not less than one year in a few (California), for the second and each subsequent conviction. This latter sentence is what most convicted exhibitionists are likely to receive, since Gebhard et al. (1965) found out that "the exhibition- ists are quite recidivistic”: Relatively few (13 percent) have only one conviction; about one third, the second largest proportion recorded, had four to six convictions; and they display the third largest percentage of those convicted seven or more times (16 percent) (p. 394). Schur (1973) reminds us that "for the positivists, the important thing if criminology was to become a science was to shift attention from the crime to the criminal" (p. 30). We suggest that, maybe, time has come to reshift it from the offender to the interaction between rule- violators and those who respond to their behavior (Becker, 1963; Scheff, 1966; Amir, 1967). Scheff (1966) has noticed a prevalence of violation of cultural norms higher in "normal" p0pu1ations than in subgroups of diagnosed deviants, observing that the one thing that distinguishes the "normal" rule-breaker from the "abnormal" one is precisely the response of the witness to the deviation. 35 Noticeably, there is a bit of the exhibitionist in nearly all females, and in many males as well. Every~ one wants to be physically sexually attractive: it is psychologically important to anyone. Society even expects and encourages a certain display of physical charms. Were it not for the fact that most people do not expose their genitalia, many a male and female on a sunny beach could be called exhibitionist, for the plausible sexual gratifi- cation they receive from displaying their anatomy. They very likely enjoy the knowledge that they are sexually desirable. With the coming of spring weather, exhibitionistic beach attitudes are soon adopted on most campuses, and the audacious streaker and the "aguichante" thinly dressed coed suddenly present the "flasher" with a condoning atmosphere. Hindelang (197 ) tells us that "those who engage in a particular illegal behavior are more approving of that behavior than those who do not"; henceforth, one can hardly expect these lady Godivas of modern times to want police protection from indecent exposure. As inferred by Schur (1973), it appears therefore legitimate to suggest that "close attention to reaction processes be given high priority in the field of crimi~ nology, in order to produce a realistic assessment of deviance problems" (p. 10). 36 Attitudinal research is particularly relevant to our matter of concern because in the area of psychosexual deviation, there is an obvious tendency of the political or administrative authorities to make assumptions about the acceptance level of their community, without first assess- ing the relative seriousness of the abusive conduct. Perhaps, this is due to the fact that most of these groups are constituted by men, since Barclay and Haber (1965) have shown that men appear to be more defensive than women about sex and aggression. To take but one example, while in the sixties the simple suggestion for the tolerance of braless areas in his coastal resort town cost a French mayor his position, at the present time nude beaches are flourishing in many part of the French seashore, providing a simultaneously hedonistic and therapeutic guilt-free exhibitionistic setting. We will conclude these reflections with one of Schur's cardinal considerations which indicates that "if the public definition of deviance is central to our under- standing of what is simply immoral and what is in fact a dangerous offense, then the investigation of public atti- tudes is especially crucial" (Schur, 1973, p. 10), and one of Schur's enhanced comments: A complete understanding of deviance is only possible through an analysis that relates an individual's actions to the responses of others (p. 40). 37 Carson (1969) has indicated that the problem of circular causality in person-environment relationships is rather subtle: If a person's reaction or response to an event is determined by his perception of that event, and not by the objective event itself, it follows that the truly functional 'stimulus' that evokes his response is in part determined by that response, in the sense that one of its component parts is his perceptual representation or 'interpretation' of the stimulus. Thus, the functional stimulus is determined by a com- ponent of the person's total response to it, and it may be altered by that response (pp. 14-15). This viewpoint appears to be very much in line with what we have seen in our findings, where most nonreportive sub- jects were less affected by the actual event than they were by the perceived threat which was responsible for the highly emotionally disturbing impact of the experience. This type of circular causality is termed by Carson 'the response determined stimulus effect.‘ He urges us to keep in mind that "all things considered, the causal attributions made by the witnesses in explaining a behavior are what establishes its degree of abnormality" (Carson, 1969, p. 227). Manifestly, further research should be done on a periodical basis in order to investigate the changing societal reactions to deviance in general and in maladap- tive sexual behavior in particular, and adjust our criminal code, law statutes, and morality accordingly.

We may therefore conclude that there is a tendency for HHGG to show a higher inclination not to report such an encounter to others than we find in LHGG. 50 51 Table 11.~~Mean scores of the tendency to report sex crime.

APPENDIX 3 INTERVIEWS APPENDIX 3 INTERVIEWS Subject #1, age 21, Hostility-guilt score = +27 I was walking on the highway. A red truck pulled off of the road on the other side of the highway. And there was a guy in there calling me over. I couldn't hear him and he was saying something to me. So, I went running over to the truck. He opened the truck door, and he sort of leaned partway out and said: "You know what this is?" He was holding his penis. It was erect, and he had a rubber on it. I just looked at it and said: "Yes," turned around and left. (Giggling) I just kept walking down the road, and I felt like I was in shock. That was it. Then, I thought that I should have gotten the license plate or something. But I was scared to turn around, and so, I kept walking. I was on my way to my girlfriend's house. When I got there I was too embarrassed to tell her. And I never ended up telling anybody. I was too embarrassed. I was scared of red trucks for about six months (laughs). Now, it seems kinda funny, but then, it was really scary. The only time I thought about it was when I got an obscene phone call (giggles). I started thinking about 53 54 this other guy. But other than that I never thought about it. I wasn't as scared after the obscene phone call because I was not in immediate danger. With this other guy, I was really scared. You know, he could have pulled me into the truck, or something. Like he showed me some- thing I had never really seen before (gentle laughs), you know. I don't even have any brothers (louder laughs). I was only sixteen. I had a boyfriend, but I didn't even tell him. I was too embarrassed. If I felt anything, I think it was just a sort of like now there is a wall between us (boyfriend and her) because there was something I couldn't tell him. I didn't want to. I was too embarrassed. He never was aware of this. We were just dating now and then. It was not a heavy, big relationship, you know. I have two sisters, and we are about only a year apart. So, we are really close. And it's unusual that I didn't tell them. But, I just couldn't. I dreamt about it after it happened. Right away, I started dreaming it, and it was months after that they would come back to me. I was really scared by it. But now, it doesn't scare me as much. It's been a long time. When I saw the guy in the truck I thought it was really disgusting. I even thought "ooh!" You know. Afterwards, I was thinking about it, and I thought the whole 55 thing was totally revolting and I'd never have kids (gig- gles). But the first time I made love, I didn't associate anything with that. As I've gotten older, not only I do have sexual relationships, but my whole outlook on these things, you know, things are a lot more open. If it happened now, I know I wouldn't be as upset as I was then. I think I'd just go home and laugh or some- thing. But I still don't think I'd go to the police, or tell my parents or anybody. I'd be embarrassed to go to my parents. I might go to my boyfriend or my girlfriend. I wrote on your card that I wouldn't tell him. And I wrote that I'd be more likely to tell my best girlfriend, which is probably what would happen. It would depend. Like if I was to talk to him right after, but if I wasn't I'd be more likely to tell my girlfriend. I was sixteen when I first made love. I don't think I told anybody about it. I was still pretty young, you know, as far as my friends. I wasn't really sure where they stood, and I was too embarrassed, so I didn't. It was half a year after the buy in the red truck. Subject #6, age 22, Hostility-guilt score = ~12 There were three or four of us girls walking down Grand River Avenue. It was on a weekend at night. It was kinda late. We were just walking down the street talking, and all of a sudden, we saw this man, he was 56 kind of older, and he kind of had a funny expression on his face, I thought, a sort of he had a coat on, and he walked toward us. At the same time he started walking toward us, something else happened, and I looked around and then he was by. And it was over. And everybody was talking about how he exposed himself. Everybody was dis- gusted about the whole thing. I didn‘t even see it, but I knew it had happened because everybody was talking about it. The reaction of everybody else was just disgust. Nobody was upset, nobody was really shocked. It was just a disgust type of reaction. And I sort of felt the same way. We probably laughed, yeah. Subject #2, age 19, Hostility-guilt score = ~3 I was in a shopping center, in the parking lot, when (giggles) I saw a man standing by a car, and he exposed himself. He just took his pants off, and he stood there. And I just looked at him, and I just kept walking, I got into my car and drove away. I didn't think anything of it, really. He just stood there, looked at me and smiled at me. He had his pants off, he took them off completely (giggles). He just stood there and waved at me as I drove away in my car. It was last summer. It was in Roseville, it's about 16 miles north of Detroit. It was mid-afternoon. Then I went home. I told people, but I really didn't think anything of it. I told my 57 friends. No, I didn't tell my parents. My parents have a lot of hang-ups. (Laughs) I told my boyfriend too. He just told me never to go out there alone again, by myself. I think he was a little bit upset by it. He didn't say too much. I just thought he was an ass (laughs). That's all I thought. He was an ass (laughs). I really wasn't that scared by it, I don't think. I was just more sur- prised, but I really wasn't that scared or anything. All I had to do was get into my car and drive away. So, it really didn't scare me very much. (I had at that time sexual relations. And it didn't change my feelings about it. First time I made love after it happened, I enjoyed it just regular, I think. Subject #8, age 21, Hostility-guilt score = +21 The first time, I was in the library and it was in the graduate section. This young man walked up to me and asked me where he could find a book on Masters and Johnson. That's what he said to me. And I said: "Well, why don't you try going down looking at the card catalogue, on the first floor?" And you know, it's apparent it was an indecent exposure. He was just standing there with his pants open. And I just told him that, turned around, and walked away. At that time, I didn't fear because it was a lighted area in the library. I thought it was kind of 58 funny, you know, like I thought something must be emotion- ally wrong with him for him to do that . . . . The second time it happened I was walking down Michigan Avenue. It was late at night and it was in the summertime. An older man came out of nowhere from the side of the street and he had his pants open and he said to me: "Come on over here, honey, I really have something good for you, and you'd really like it." He was holding his penis in his hand, and I was really scared. I didn't wait more than about three seconds and took off running as fast as I could. And I kept feeling he was following me, and I lived alone at the time. So, I kept dodging in the apartment and kept checking if he was running after me. But he wasn't. When I got home, I was scared for like two hours after that. I had seen a police car but I just ran across the highway. It was going in the other direction. I thought about calling the police, but I thought he‘d be gone by the time they get there. And it wouldn't do much good. For some reason, at the library, I wasn't even bothered by that. But if the man in the street had had a weapon or something, it wouldn't have been very funny. But as it was, it turned out okay. The second time it happened I did have trouble falling asleep because it was an older man. He was in his forties, he was big and he just really had scared me because I was alone at the time. 59 I smoked about four or five cigarettes to calm down, went to bed, and just laid there. Subject #21, age 21, Hostility-guilt score = ~19 My sister and I were coming back from a fair. As we were getting to the car, we noticed someone that was following us. It was on a side street, so we kinda hurried up because we were a little bit nervous. Then, he started running after us. So, we ran to the car. We got in the car. We locked it. He came to the window of the door and exposed himself. He started jacking off against the window, saying all kinds of obscene things, you know, mouthing Obscenities, pressed up against the window. Then we just laid on the horn and we took off as soon as possible. He was just a young kid. He was probably about sixteen or seventeen, I'd say. The second time was on campus, here. I think he was a guy in my class. I had had Nat Sci in the nat sci building. I was going out after class, and I was going down the stairs. I heard somebody following me. So, I hurried up the side court of the stairwell. I turned around for a second and I saw him exposing himself, and he was jacking off. Then I just walked out the door and he still kept knocking on the window, pressing himself up and jacking off against the window. That time I reported him to the police too after I got home. I didn't tell my parents. My sister and I both talked about it 60 because we both were really scared and everything. We didn't know what to do. The second time I talked to the girls in the dorm, and they are the ones that got me to go to the police. The last time, the guy was in the basement of a building that had a window in the basement. He tapped on the window. I just looked down and there he was. I just kept on walking, just ignored him. I didn't report him or anything. That time it really didn't bother me that much. APPENDIX 4 MOSHER F-C INVENTORY APPENDIX 4 MOSHER F-C INVENTORY This questionnaire consists of a number of pairs of statements or opinions which have been given by college women in response to the "Mosher Incomplete Sentences Tests": These women were asked to complete phrases such as "When I tell a lie . . . ." and "To kill in war . . . ." to make a sentence which expressed their real feelings about the stem. This questionnaire consists of the stems to which they responded and a pair of their responses which are lettered A and B. You are to read the stem and the pair of completions and decide which you most agree with or which is most characteristic of you. Your choice, in each instance, should be in terms of what you believe how you feel, or how you would react, and not in terms of how you think you should believe, feel, or respond. This is not a test. There are no right or wrong answers. Your choices should be a description of your own personal beliefs, feelings or reactions. In some instances you may discover that you believe both completions or neither completion to be characteristic 61 62 of you. In such cases select the one you mg£g_strongly believe to be the case as far as you are concerned. Be sure to find an answer for every choice. Do not omit an item even though it is very difficult for you to decide, just select the more characteristic member of the pair. Your answers are to be recorded on a separate answer sheet. If alternative A is more characteristic of you for a particular item blacken the space in the column under E. If alternative B is more characteristic of you for a particular item blacken the space under the column headed g. 1. I punish myself . . . A. very infrequently.
