Predictive Ability of the Sexual Child Molestation Risk Assessment (SChiMRA+)
Overview
This study evaluates the predictive ability of the Sexual Child Molestation Risk Assessment (SChiMRA+), a self-report scale designed to assess current motivation and recent behaviors related to sexual urges toward children. The authors analyzed longitudinal data from two clinical trials involving men with pedophilic disorder and active CSAM users to determine the tool's effectiveness in identifying heightened risk for future offending or ongoing abuse material use. The resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in time-sensitive risk assessment tools within child sexual abuse prevention.
