Abstract：
The Historical-Clinical-Risk Management Scale 20 (HCR-20) is a structured tool to assess the risk of violence and assist in its management. French professionals are reluctant to use it because only a few studies have shown its psychometric qualities with French samples. The objective of this study is to test the psychometric qualities of the HCR-20 with samples of violent detainees in France. The HCR-20 and Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (LS/CMI) were administered to 128 violent offenders with an average age of (44.16±12.30) years. We evaluated the reliability, internal consistency and validity of the HCR-20 and conducted an exploratory factor analysis. The results show that the HCR-20 has good psychometric qualities with a sample of French prisoners. Only the Risk domain presents weak results due to the data collection locations and the participants\' age. Correlations were observed between certain factors. The exploratory factor analysis shows four factors explaining 44% of the variance. The continuation of this work will enable French professionals to use sound tools to assess the risk of recidivism.
摘要：
历史临床风险管理量表20（HCR-20）是评估暴力风险并协助其管理的结构化工具。法国专业人士不愿使用它，因为只有少数研究显示了法国样本的心理测量特性。这项研究的目的是用法国的暴力被拘留者样本测试HCR-20的心理测量质量。HCR-20和服务水平/案件管理清单（LS/CMI）对128名暴力罪犯进行了管理，平均年龄为（44.16±12.30）岁。我们评估了可靠性，HCR-20的内部一致性和有效性，并进行了探索性因素分析。结果表明，在法国囚犯样本中，HCR-20具有良好的心理测量学素质。由于数据收集位置和参与者的年龄，只有风险域呈现较弱的结果。观察到某些因素之间的相关性。探索性因子分析显示了四个因素解释了44%的方差。这项工作的继续将使法国专业人员能够使用健全的工具来评估累犯的风险。
