Get Static 99r 2020-2023

Static-99R is a 10-item actuarial measure that assesses recidivism risk of adult male sexual offenders. The items are identical to Static-99 (Hanson & Thornton, 2000), with the exception of updated age weights (see Helmus, Thornton, Hanson, & Babchishin, 2010).

The Static-99 family of instruments The Static-99 was developed using large datasets from Canada and the United Kingdom to evaluate the optimal combination of risk factors that could most effectively predict sexual recidivism.

for use with adult males with a history of sexual offending who are at least 18 year of age at time of release to the community. In 2012, the age item for the original scale (Static-99) was updated, creating Static-99R.

The STATIC-99 report is used by the judge in sentencing defendants for serious sex crimes. The judge will use the report as a reference point in sentencing the defendant. The lower the risk score the more likely the judge will impose a lighter or more lenient sentence.

The STATIC-99 is an actuarial risk prediction instrument designed to estimate the probability of sexual and violent reconviction for adult males who have already been charged with or convicted of at least one sexual offense against a child or a non-consenting adult.

The Static-99R is based on static (unchanging) risk factors which predict the potential for sexual re-offending, such as age at release from custody on the sex offense, number of certain types of prior convictions, and victim characteristics.

Many research studies have proven its predictive accuracy. The sexual re-offense rate for the typical sex offender is between 4% and 12% after 5 years from release from custody, and between 6-22% after 10 years.

The Static-99R score is used to predict risk of sexual reoffense, based on the offender's score category. In 2016, the authors of the Static-99R revised the coding rules to reflect new score literals for each numeric score.
