The Consideration of Empirically Unsupported Risk Factors in Risk Assessment Reports About Individuals Convicted of Sexual Offenses
Accurate risk assessment of individuals convicted of sexual offenses is crucial to prevent reoffending and prolonged institutionalization. However, findings indicate a heterogenous quality of risk assessment reports. Some of the qualitative variance may reflect differences in the strength of empirical evidence linking risk factors to reoffending. Some factors that have historically been important treatment targets have meta-analytically been show…
Patterns of risk—Using machine learning and structural neuroimaging to identify pedophilic offenders
Aberrant white matter microstructure in the prefronto-temporo-limbic circuit could be a potential neurobiological correlate for PO individuals at high-risk of reoffending with CSA. Although preliminary and exploratory at this point, our findings highlight the general potential of MRI-based biomarkers and particularly WM microstructure patterns for future CSA risk assessment and preventive efforts
