1
00:00:00.030 --> 00:00:05.040
so Doug you mentioned something about

2
00:00:02.010 --> 00:00:06.750
risk factors can you tell us more about

3
00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:08.580
those different risk factors that can

4
00:00:06.750 --> 00:00:11.280
help identify whether a person's going

5
00:00:08.580 --> 00:00:12.840
to fail or succeed and do these risk

6
00:00:11.280 --> 00:00:16.109
factors apply to both adults and

7
00:00:12.840 --> 00:00:18.690
juveniles so we generally think about

8
00:00:16.109 --> 00:00:21.060
risk factors in two broad categories one

9
00:00:18.690 --> 00:00:23.220
are risk factors that are sort of static

10
00:00:21.060 --> 00:00:25.680
and unchangeable and others that are

11
00:00:23.220 --> 00:00:27.390
dynamic and changeable so we know for

12
00:00:25.680 --> 00:00:29.070
example that the younger somebody is

13
00:00:27.390 --> 00:00:31.830
when they start committing crimes the

14
00:00:29.070 --> 00:00:33.540
greater the risk for recidivism but the

15
00:00:31.830 --> 00:00:35.640
age that somebody started using crimes

16
00:00:33.540 --> 00:00:37.590
is something in the past we can't go

17
00:00:35.640 --> 00:00:39.300
back in the past and change it so though

18
00:00:37.590 --> 00:00:42.840
it tells us about risk it doesn't allow

19
00:00:39.300 --> 00:00:44.969
us to change risk a dynamic risk factor

20
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:47.520
would be the more people you hang out

21
00:00:44.969 --> 00:00:49.950
with who are themselves engaged in crime

22
00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:51.120
substance use and other inappropriate

23
00:00:49.950 --> 00:00:53.730
behaviors the greater the likelihood

24
00:00:51.120 --> 00:00:55.350
that you will recidivate we can do

25
00:00:53.730 --> 00:00:57.840
something about that we can target that

26
00:00:55.350 --> 00:00:59.579
for change by encouraging our clients

27
00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:02.010
not to hang out with other people

28
00:00:59.579 --> 00:01:04.409
engaged in substance use criminal

29
00:01:02.010 --> 00:01:07.170
activity and the like what we call

30
00:01:04.409 --> 00:01:08.640
dynamic risk factors some researchers

31
00:01:07.170 --> 00:01:11.700
and clinicians will call criminogenic

32
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:14.210
needs the needs that cause crime that we

33
00:01:11.700 --> 00:01:14.210
can treat
