About this book

​​This book contains three sections. Part I includes an introductory chapter and an applied chapter on conducting a risk assessment.  Part II provides a description of how the measures were organized and quick-view tables that provide easy access to measures with enough information to allow for an estimate of the likelihood that reading additional information about a particular measure would prove fruitful.  Measures are organized alphabetically into tables for measures of anger, aggression, or violence.  Each of the tables provides the name of the measure, the purpose for which the measure was developed, and the targeted population.  The tables also provide information on the method of assessment, the amount of time required to use the measure, and the page number where additional information is available.  Part II also contains the review of each measure.  Part III provides examples of measures that can be copied for research or clinical purposes.   ​
