it is relevant to deepen our understanding of the motivations of criminal behaviour and to try to understand such personalities. the objective of this study was to determine if there were underlying psychological characteristics common to sexual offenders. for this purpose, the rorschach inkblot test was used and, as comparative parameters, individuals with histories of theft and chilean national rorschach statistics. significant differences were found in both groups, which suggest the existence of underlying common psychological traits in sexual offenders. these traits make them stand out from the general population and from other common delinquents.
