Predictive Validity of the Psychopathy Checklist: Screening Version for Intramural Behaviour in Violent Offenders A Prospective Study at a Secure Psychiatric Hospital in Germany
Canadian Journal of Psychiatry, 06/19/08
Huchzermeier C et al. - Numeorus studies found the psychopathy checklist (PCL) score to be a reliable predictor of recidivism in offenders after release. The present study has demonstrated that the PCL score has also predictive validity for intramural behaviour problems in individuals serving compulsory treatment at a forensic psychiatric hospital. As a result, we recommend the routine use of the PCL with offenders starting a period of compulsory detention to identify those at increased risk for problem behaviour.
