In the presented work by means of the directed psychology-sexological research the factors exerting impact on emergence of significant physiological reactions in response to presentation of standard and deviant sexual incentives when testing on a polygraph of 30 volunteers were studied. It is revealed that of healthy selection of the examinees reacting to photos with the image of a deviant sexual object it is significantly characteristic: a disharmonious personal profile, cognitive distortions, indirect violations of the sexual sphere in the form of a delay of sexual development and violation of gender identity. The phenomena described in work expand the class of available studies of the influence of the individual characteristics of the subject on his physiological reactivity and can be considered at interpretation of the data obtained during the psychophysiological research in the medical purposes on sexual offenders.
