Abstract

Few studies have addressed the application of violence risk assessment for individuals transitioning from youth to adulthood. For 202 young adults released from Dutch juvenile justice institutions this study investigated the predictive validity and potential disparities in impact of juvenile risk assessment tools (i.e., SAVRY [Structured Assessment of Violence Risk in Youth], and SAPROF-YV [Structured Assessment of Protective Factors for violence risk-Youth Version]), and comparable adult risk assessment tools (i.e., HCR-20V3 [Historical Clinical Risk management-20 Version 3], and SAPROF [Structured Assessment of Protective Factors for violence risk]). Assessments with juvenile and adult risk assessment tools yielded similar predictive validity for violent and non-violent recidivism. Risk and protective factors related to treatability, parents, community participation, resilience, and personality showed individual predictive validity. These findings offer flexibility when applying risk assessment in clinical practice. The choice between youth and adult assessment tools should be made considering the individual’s developmental stage.

青少年暴力风险评估的有效性：青少年和成人风险评估工具的比较研究

很少有研究涉及暴力风险评估在从青年过渡到成年的个人中的应用。本研究对从荷兰青少年司法机构释放的202名年轻人进行了调查，调查了青少年风险评估工具（即SAVRY[青少年暴力风险结构化评估]和SAPROF-IV[青少年暴力危险保护因素结构化评估]）的预测有效性和潜在影响差异，以及可比较的成人风险评估工具（即HCR-20V3[历史临床风险管理-20版本3]和SAPROF[暴力风险保护因素的结构化评估]）。使用青少年和成人风险评估工具进行的评估对暴力和非暴力累犯产生了类似的预测有效性。与可治疗性、父母、社区参与、恢复力和个性相关的风险和保护因素显示出个体预测有效性。这些发现为在临床实践中应用风险评估提供了灵活性。在选择青年和成人评估工具时，应考虑到个人的发展阶段。
