“…However, comparison of overall model strength (AUC), which should be done only with great caution for the same reason, 41 shows that the AUCs of our models are similar to those of leading sexual violence risk tools that require one-on-one clinical assessment. 40,42 Using conventional interpretive guidelines, 43 the AUC of the intra-family minor model was excellent and those of the other three models at the lower-end of acceptable . Replication of the analysis in more recent cohorts would be needed to determine if sufficiently strong-stable models could be developed to make intensive prevention efforts cost-effective.…”

“…It is difficult to compare COR to similar operating characteristics of other violence prediction tools developed for use in forensic samples 40 because of vast differences in populations. However, comparison of overall model strength (AUC), which should be done only with great caution for the same reason, 41 shows that the AUCs of our models are similar to those of leading sexual violence risk tools that require one-on-one clinical assessment.…”

“…The RNR model inherently relies on utilizing various scientifically validated evaluation methods and assessment measures to classify, manage, and treat criminal offenders (Bonta and Andrews 2007). A large body of literature has amassed over the past few decades examining sex offenders through the RNR framework with the assistance of a combination of assessment tools and techniques (Hanson and Morton-Bourgon 2009;Joyal et al 2014;Olver et al 2018;Tully et al 2013). Thus, approaching the evaluation of sexual offenders based on the RNR model may prove advantageous.…”

“…For example, deviant sexual interests are a risk factor among juvenile sex offenders, which is not the case for nonsex offenders (Worling & Curwen, ). For this reason, some scholars have questioned the effectiveness of risk assessments that were not designed with sex offenders in mind (Tully, Chou, & Browne, ). Contrary to this argument, some research findings also indicate that risk assessment tools designed to aid in predicting recidivism for general types of offending can aid in predicting recidivism for sex offenders as well (Olver, Stockdale, & Wormith, ; Ragusa‐Salerno, Ostermann, & Thomas, ).…”
