Abstract:
The present study featured an examination of the predictive properties of the Violence Risk Appraisal Guide–Revised (VRAG-R) in a treated sample of sexual offenders, using modern risk metrics. The Sex Offender Risk Appraisal Guide (SORAG) and the original Violence Risk Appraisal Guide (VRAG) were examined for comparison purposes. The three measures were rated archivally on 296 treated sexual offenders followed up 17.6 years. VRAG-R scores demonstrated good discrimination of recidivists from nonrecidivists for sexual (area under the curve [AUC] = .60-.67) and violent (AUC = .70-.78) recidivism,

This study compared the predictive validity of multiple indices of violence risk among 188 general population criminal offenders: Historical-Clinical-Risk Management-20 (HCR-20) Violence Risk Assessment Scheme, Violence Risk Appraisal Guide (VRAG), Violent Offender Risk Assessment Scale (VORAS), Hare Psychopathy Checklist-Revised (PCL-R), and Screening Version (PCL:SV). Several indices were related to violent recidivism with large statistical effect sizes: HCR-20 (Total, Clinical and Risk Management scales, structured risk judgments), VRAG, and behavioral scales of psychopathy measures.

Abstract:
A clear structured approach to violence risk assessment that is both, evidence-based and gender specific- is high on the political and mental health agendas. The individual risk of perpetrators depends on several parameters that are incorporated into assessment instruments. Most data about risk factors included in risk assessment instruments were derived only on male offenders.This study is part of Germany's biggest risk assessment study, -the Munich Prognosis project (MPP) - and focuses on factors included in risk assessment instruments associated with criminal and violent recidivism in a sam

Abstract:
Statistics such as the Pearson’s r and Receiver Operating Characteristics are often used to test the generalization of criminal and violence prediction instruments. However, these analyses overlook potential error in the assessment of risk if the rates of offending within the initial validation samples are assumed accurate for other samples. This study examined the generalizability of the Level of Service Inventory-Revised and Violence Risk Appraisal Guide probability bins in a predominantly violent correctional sample. The findings showed that the initial bin probabilities were not transferab

Résumé Un large éventail d’instruments s’offre aux cliniciens pour évaluer le risque que posent les délinquants sexuels. La présente étude vise à comparer la validité prédictive de huit instruments (VRAG, SORAG, RRASOR, Statique-99, Statique-2002, RM2000, MnSOST–R et SVR-20) et un outil de référence (PCL-R) selon quatre types de récidive (nuisance sexuelle, récidive sexuelle, récidive violente non sexuelle et récidive non violente et non sexuelle) et pour trois groupes d’agresseurs sexuels. Les résultats indiquent que ces outils ont une validité prédictive marginale à modeste en ce qui concern

Abstract:
En el contexto del servicio de urgencias, la valoración de riesgos prevalece, y en el caso de las urgencias psiquiátricas, además del riesgo vital del paciente, es necesario velar por la seguridad e integridad de familiares, otros pacientes, personal asistencial y locaciones, por lo que se vuelve primordial la evaluación del riesgo de violencia del paciente. Aun cuando el concepto de riesgo de violencia, antes de peligrosidad, es de mayor uso en estrados judiciales y ambientes forenses, toma importancia en la valoración inicial del paciente psiquiátrico en urgencias para definir su diagnóstico

Varje dag utförs riskbedömningar inom rättspsykiatri och kriminalvård. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka det vetenskapliga underlaget för riskbedömningar. Uppsatsen inleds med en kort beskrivning av i vilka sammanhang riskbedömningar används och den traditionella uppfattningen av hur området och instrumenten har utvecklats. Sedan följer en genomgång av olika studier som behandlar bedömningarnas träffsäkerhet generellt samt mellan olika generationer av bedömningar. Därnäst redovisas och framförs kritik mot validiteten i Psychopathy Checklist Revised (PCL-R, Hare, 1991) och dess tillämpn

Abstract:
While forensic psychiatric inpatient violence is a serious problem, research on risk assessment for this outcome is limited; the current research investigated the predictive validity of a number of structured risk/forensic instruments for inpatient violence. Research objectives included: 1) observing the profile of dynamic changes in violence risk detected by existing violence risk assessment instruments; 2) assessing whether existing violence risk assessment instruments could be used to assess risk for inpatient violence; 3) evaluating the contribution of dynamic risk measures to the predict
