The Estimate of Risk of Adolescent Sexual Offense Recidivism (ERASOR; Worling & Curwen, 2000) is an empirically guided measure designed to aid clinicians in estimating the short term risk of sexual reoffense for juveniles between 12--18 years of age. Three independent male juvenile residential sex offender treatment facilities provided information on the ERASOR (N = 91), Psychopathic Personality Inventory (PPI; Lilienfeld & Andrews, 1996) (N = 42), and the Sexualized Violence Questionnaire (SVQ; DiLalla, Stevens, & Le, 1998) (N = 44). The ERASOR demonstrated high to excellent internal consistency. The ERASOR Total score was also related to the empirically guided clinical rating of reoffense risk status. More importantly, scores from the ERASOR differentiated between those individuals labeled as repeaters verses those labeled as nonrepeaters, lending support to the concurrent validity of the ERASOR. The PPI scales of Machiavellian Egocentricity, Impulse Nonconformity, Social Potency, and Carefree Nonplanfulness were related to increased risk for reoffense. After controlling for personality variables, attitudinal scales as measured by the SVQ, were not related to risk for reoffense. Overall, the results of this study provide support for the ERASOR's reliability and utility for assessing juvenile sex offender reoffense. The current results also provide support for the inclusion of dynamic risk factors in the assessment of juvenile sex offender reoffense and for empirically guided risk assessment. Implications for assessment and clinical practice are also discussed.

The Juvenile Sex Offender Assessment Protocol-II (J-SOAP-II) is a checklist whose purpose is to aid in the systematic review of risk factors that have been identified in the professional literature as being associated with sexual and criminal offending. It is designed to be used with boys in the age range of 12 to 18 who have been adjudicated for sexual offenses, as well as nonadjudicated youths with a history of sexually coercive behavior. Decisions about reoffense risk should not be based exclusively on the results from J-SOAP-II. J-SOAP-II should always be used as part of a comprehensive risk assessment. Like any scale that is intended to assess risk, J-SOAP-II requires ongoing validation and possible revision, as we learn more about how J-SOAP-II works and about how best to assess the risk of youths who have sexually offended. Because the revised J-SOAP is a new scale, and we are just beginning to collect predictive validity data on it...

A significant percentage of sexual abuse in the United States is committed by juveniles, and mental health professionals increasingly receive requests to evaluate these juveniles. With an emphasis on practicality and utility, Juvenile Sex Offenders fills a gap in the current literature by providing a thoughtful, thorough approach to evaluating and treating youth who have committed sexual offenses or have engaged in sexually abusive behavior. Serving as a functional guide, this text expertly prepares clinicians for the challenging task of evaluating juveniles, picking up where traditional clinical training often falls short and providing state-of-the-art assessment techniques as well as an overview of treatment modalities. Chapters highlight the many ways in which juveniles charged with sexual offenses differ from adults, the common dilemmas facing evaluators, and the changing perceptions and legal trends with respect to youth crime. Chapters also cover sexual development and behaviors among children and adolescents, risk factors and risk assessment, case examples for working with attorneys, and interventions and pharmacological approaches. Clinical practitioners with limited forensic training will benefit from the guidance on formal forensic evaluation and the review of literature on assessment approaches specific to youth, while forensic experts will gain developmental perspective in evaluating and treating young sexual offenders. Set in a hopeful and optimistic framework, Juvenile Sex Offenders is a practical, empirically based guide on the best practices in evaluating and treating this poorly understood and underserved population.

The public's perception of sex offenders has been greatly impacted by several high profile cases involving horrific acts of child sexual abuse, which has provoked lawmakers to address society's concerns with strict punitive consequences for the offender. These consequences have recently been applied to juvenile sex offenders as well, as society does not consider the differing levels of dangerousness for juvenile and adult sex offenders. This is unfortunate, as current research informs us that juvenile sex offenders are a population distinct from adult offenders and that their risk for recidivism is much less than society fears. In fact, the risk of recidivism is very low by most estimates. Nevertheless, most states now hold juvenile sex offenders to the same punitive standards as adult offenders, including required sex offender registration and notification. Some lawmakers and Courts have recognized the incongruency between current registry laws and the research on juvenile sex offender recidivism and have established efforts to help reduce potential rehabilitative harm that a juvenile would incur by registry. These efforts have involved forensic assessment to help educate involved parties regarding the potential risks for a juvenile specific to their offense behavior and the appropriate judicial action to address and help minimize those risks. Court officials are now routinely requesting preadjudicatory risk assessment evaluations, in which the forensic examiner is asked to provide an opinion as to whether the juvenile presents substantial risk to society such that he should be held to adult criminal sanctions, including sex offender registration and notification requirements. In most cases, the referral for a preadjudicatory risk assessment has been made when the involved parties are considering a plea bargain to a non-registry offense and request the input from a forensic evaluator to assist them with charging and sentencing decisions. While preadjudicatory risk assessments can greatly inform the legal process, there are numerous ethical, legal, and practical considerations for conducting such evaluations. A review of relevant information and discussion of these considerations is provided, followed by a set of proposed practice guidelines to assist the forensic psychologist conducting preadjudicatory risk assessments for juvenile sex offenders.

This volume is the result of an EU project involving two different European countries (Italy and Cyprus) on risk and needs assessment for juvenile violent offenders. The book is based on a longitudinal data base of juveniles who have committed violent crimes and who have been followed up after six months to measure their recidivism rate. The aim of this book is to provide practitioners who are dealing with juvenile (violent) offenders, with scientifically-based theories and knowledge derived from results about risk assessment. In particular it shows how a newly developed and tested instrument/approach, the EARN (European Assessment of Risk and Needs) works and how it can be used to help practitioners. Recidivism of violence in juveniles is based on several risk factors and is reduced on the basis of protective factors. Efficient legal intervention and treatment are more and more tailored according to the risk factors but also to the needs of juveniles. Juvenile Justice Systems in Europe tend to approach the juvenile who has committed a crime not only from a sanction point of view but more as an opportunity for the juvenile, his or her family and the social context in general, to reduce the risk of recidivism. This book will be of interest to researchers, students, social workers, police officers and lawyers.
