Understanding SOCE (Sexual Orientation Change Efforts) | Fr. Paul Sullins | The Dr. J Show #89
The Rev. D. Paul Sullins, Ph.D., is a Senior Research Associate of the Ruth Institute. He recently retired as Professor of Sociology at the Catholic University of America, Washington DC. Dr. Sullins is a leader in the field of research on same-sex parenting and its implications for child development. He has written four books and over 100 journal articles, research reports, and essays on issues of family, faith, and culture. His reports on clerical sexual abuse from the Pennsylvania Grand Jury data, John Jay data, LA Times, and other sources have garnered international acclaim.
Dr. Sullins continues as Research Professor and Director of the Leo Initiative for Social Research at Catholic University, as well as Director of the Summer Institute of Catholic Social Thought. He also serves on the board of the Society of Catholic Social Scientists (SCSS), the Center for Family and Human Rights (C-FAM), and the Natural Family Journal. He is a Fellow of the Marriage and Religion Research Institute (MARRI), and was Ignatius Loyola Fellow for Catholic Identity at the Center for the Advancement of Catholic Higher Education.

Fr. Sullins’ research summary, "Efficacy and Risk," makes the case that SOCE can be effective and with generally positive psychosocial benefits. This study restates, with improvements, a study based on the same data which had been retracted two years ago. The document "Santero study talking points" summarizes what I would want to say about it.

Here is a recent review of this article in Mercatornet.

Fr. Sullins’ research article, "Suicide and SOCE," rebuts an article claiming that SOCE increases suicide risk, showing that most of the suicide behavior occurred before going to SOCE. When adjusted for pre-existing suicidality, SOCE greatly *reduces* suicide risk. This study disarms the most common argument from evidence for minority stress theory, the idea that the problems of sexual minority persons are due solely to discrimination and lack of social acceptance.Â
