|
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk of recidivism in sex
offenders according to the sociodemographic factors, IQ, diagnosis by using Static-99
and KSORAS.
Methods: A total of 48 sex offenders were enrolled. Among them, 44 offenders
were rated by Static-99, 41 offenders were evaluated by KSORAS. All the information
was collected by reviewing medical records and written records of prosecutors or
police retrospectively.
Results: In Static-99 and KSORAS, young adults tend to commit more recidivism
than late adults. Single offenders have high rates of recidivism than married offenders
in Static-99. In KSORAS, mental retardation patients have a tendency to commit more
recidivism than schizophrenia patients.
Conclusion: We should not overlook that specific condition of sex offenders
(young adults, single, mental retardation) can have more possibility of recidivism.
