abstract="Despite the criticism of certain dogmatic and moralising 'thinkers', the author indicates that the use of modern scientific tools is now indispensable for assessing criminal risk. He reminds us that about 10% of'ordinary homicides are committed by psychotic mentally sick people and that there is a positive statistic correlation between homicide, suicidal ideation, attemp-ted suicide and suicide. He criticises the artificial separation between criminological dange-rousness andpsychiatric dangerousness, as 90 to 95% of perpetrators of homicides at the time of the crime present various mental disturbances. To close, the author proposes a new risk-assessment scale, the '12-P', which includes the main psychosocial and psychopathological predictors related to the risk of physical assault (97 items).<p /><p>Language: fr</p>",
