Talk:Penile plethysmography
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Some questions for someone who knows more on the subject:
- I have read that plethysmography has been used to diagnose clinical paedophilia, by determining if a person is aroused by pictures of children more than by conventional pornography. Is this still being used?
- What does the current scientific literature say about the reliability of this method? There have been plenty of criticisms of other technological means of measuring people's mental states, such as the polygraph, recently. I would expect much of the same would apply.
- How about legal precedents? Where is plethysmography accepted as evidence (e.g. of paedophilia)?
