    Area of Science:

    • Psychology
    • Adolescent Behavior

    • Exhibitionism lacks a clear etiology or treatment consensus.
    • Clinical practice often views exhibitionism as social behavior within a developmental context.

    Observation:

    • Review of clinical experience with adolescent boys exhibiting indecent exposure.
    • Retrospective analysis of implicit theories guiding clinical practice.

    Findings:

    • Adolescent exhibitionism is conceptualized as a characteristic "strategic interaction."
    • Analyzing individual accounts can reveal the specific "game" being played.
    • This perspective informs targeted clinical interventions.

    Implications:

    • Interventions can foster strategy change and reduce re-offending.
    • Highlights the utility of understanding adolescent misconduct as strategic interaction.
    • Addresses theoretical limitations and practical challenges of this model.
