Features and Benefits
Each area (risk for dangerousness, sophistication-maturity, and treatment amenability) is measured by a scale composed of 15 items, and each scale contains three clusters.
Interview questions are designed to obtain background, clinical, and historical information, as well as a sample of the juvenile’s behavioral and psychological functioning.
You can score items by reviewing and synthesizing information from the entire interview as well as from other sources.
Each item is rated on a 3-point scale, reflecting the extent to which the individual demonstrates the specific characteristic.
