TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - Violence during imprisonment, forensic psychiatric care, and probation: correlations and predictive validity of the risk assessment instruments COVR, LSI-R, HCR-20V3, and SAPROF JO - International journal of forensic mental health A1 - Persson, Mats A1 - Belfrage, Henrik A1 - Fredriksson, Björn A1 - Kristiansson, Marianne SP - 117 EP - 129 VL - 16 IS - 2 N2 - This prospective, naturalistic, cohort study was designed to report the one-year rate of violence among Swedish forensic psychiatric clients, during forensic psychiatric care, prison, and probation. Another purpose was to validate the risk assessment instruments COVR, LSI-R, HCR-20V3, and SAPROF in these settings. We assessed 200 detainees undergoing a forensic psychiatric investigation in Stockholm by means of the four instruments, 193 of them were followed up for one year. Violent acts were committed by 23.3% of the participants, and occurred more often at forensic psychiatric hospitals than correctional settings. According to the analyses, the predictive validity was small for COVR (AUC =.61), medium for LSI-R (AUC =.70), and large for HCR-20V3 (AUC =.79) and SAPROF (AUC =.78).
