RE: [ForensicNetwork] Sexual Behav Test

Such a test, like the ABLES, is to be used only by someone with considerable
experience. Usually making predictions of such future behavior is beyond the
scope of psychological testing. I really wonder if, from your request, if
you feel qualified to use these types of instruments? There are a number of
predictor assessment procedures, usually involving extensive interviews and
considerable training.

Subject: [ForensicNetwork] Sexual Behav Test

I am looking for a valid and reliable test dealing with sexual
predatory behaviors. I have looked around and on the internet and have
had only limited success. I may also have use for a test that assesses
paedophilia or any deviant sexual behavior. I am, of course, willing to
purchase the test if needs be.
I am seeking a paper and pencil test that can be score via template or
be scanned within 24 hours of giving the test.
If anyone can direct me to such a test or has any suggestions I would
be very grateful.
Regards, Brian

Brian, I am querying why you think a paper and pencil test filled out by the offender would give you much useful in this regard. Preditory sexual offenders...
