摘要
The predictive accuracy of the German version of Static-99 was examined prospectively in a sample of 1,142 sexual offenders released from Austrian prisons. The Static-99 was found to have moderate to good validity for the prediction of sexual recidivism, depending on the offender subsample (area under the curve, AUC = 0.69 - 0,77). The absolute and relative risk estimates for Static-99 were also calculated. Offender type but not age was found to incrementally add to the predictive accuracy of Static-99. Therefore, absolute recidivism rates are provided separately for the child molester subgroup. At this point in time it is recommended that Static-99 should be used rather than Static-99R for the German version of Static-99 when assessing the risk of imprisoned sexual offenders.
