Mrs Dillon undertook exploratory research with a sample of New Zealand youth who had sexually harmed others. The project explored the possibility of discerning subgroups of similar youths within the sample. The results suggest a typology of these youth is possible, and that effective interventions need to focus on the primary difficulties present for the particular subgroups
