Abstract:
Mental health professionals are routinely called upon to assess the violence risk of their patients. An increasingly common method for conducting such assessments is the use of structured risk assessment tools. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the utility of such instruments: to identify and explore current uncertainties concerning their applicability and to design a novel measure that could be used as part of a stepped strategy to risk assessment. Though a number of risk assessment tools have been developed and there is a considerable literature concerning their psychometric properti

Abstract:
Violence risk assessment is important given the impact and consequences it has on offenders, victims and the public. Different tools have been developed to assess an offender’s risk. However, so far these tools are based on male theories of offending and its applicability among female offenders has been questioned by proponents of the gendered perspective. The gendered perspective argues that violence and criminal behaviour emerges based on experiences that are different between men and women. The present systematic review aims to inform about the predictive validity of current risk assessment

Workplace violence is a persistent problem in health care, and incidence rates have increased over the years.

Background: Risk assessment of sexual violence involves evidence based evaluation of the risks posed by sexual offenders. It informs risk management; the provision of treatment that reduces the risk of future sexual violence.

When assessing the risk of violence, increasing interest has been shown in bringing science and practice closer together. Moving from clinical intuition in the first generation of risk assessment via actuarial scales in the second generation to the structured professional judgments where risk assessments are today produces better, more valid results when assessing the risk of violence. One of the best predictors of violence is gender. Approximately 10% of the violent criminality can be attributed to women; even so, it is increasing, especially among young women.
