Abstract

BENAVENTE, Beatriz; BALLESTER, Lluis; PICH, Jordi  and  PEREDA, Noemí. Detection of child sexual exploitation through the evaluation of risk indicators in Spain. Pap. Psicol. [online]. 2022, vol.43, n.2, pp.90-95.  Epub July 10, 2023. ISSN 1886-1415.  https://dx.doi.org/10.23923/pap.psicol.2993.

Child sexual exploitation in Spain is a problem that requires the early detection of victims. There are few tools that enable this detection, and none are available in Spanish. This study presents a tool for assessing the risk of suffering sexual exploitation in minors from 11 years of age, by selecting the indicators that best predict it. Based on a systematic review of publications in Europe, a battery of indicators was prepared, then studied and filtered via consultation with experts using a Delphi panel to create the first instrument, which was then evaluated in a second phase consultation with professionals considered as peers. The final construct was completed by four experts from Spanish universities. The tool for detecting the risk of sexual exploitation in childhood and adolescence, EDR-ESIA, has proven to be a good detection and screening instrument, for application in educational services, primary health care, and social services.

Keywords : Sexual exploitation; Childhood; Detection; Evaluation; Risk factors.
