All outcomes rated using a 1–6 scale, with high scores indicating more competence, comfort, and desire for support, higher risk judgments, and a greater willingness to report the patient to their supervisor, safeguarding team, or local police force. Data represent estimated marginal means with standard error presented in parentheses. Mean differences describe differences between each level of disclosure, rounded to two decimal places. Mean difference information on the left demonstrates differences between the “attraction” and “masturbation” levels, while information on the right demonstrates differences between the “masturbation” and “occupation” levels
