Report on Paedophilia
1. Introduction
Paedophilia is a psychiatric condition characterized by persistent sexual attraction toward prepubescent children. It is important to distinguish paedophilia as a psychological condition from child sexual abuse, which involves criminal actions. Understanding paedophilia requires a multidisciplinary approach, integrating psychological, medical, legal, social, ethical, and preventive perspectives. This report aims to provide a comprehensive analysis to inform academic researchers, policymakers, and the general public.
