Abstract

Twenty years ago, the constitutionality of violence prediction was a salient legal issue, but little research existed to address it. Today, tort law, rather than the Constitution, frames questions of violence prediction, and much data can be invoked in debating the answers. Over the next 20 years, actuarial research is likely to become more common, and the role of risk communication may begin to receive sustained empirical attention.
