Introduction to LS/CMI
History of Offender Risk Assessment
1st generation : Clinical Assessment
2nd generation : Static Risk Assessment
3rd generation : Integrated Risk and Need
4th generation : Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (LS/CMI) by Andrews, Bonta, & Wormith (2004)
![Page 5: Risk Assessment for Offender Applying LS/CMI in Hong Kong SRACP experience by C.F. Li (SRACP)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070308/551be0e6550346b4588b5dd2/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Some Features of LS/CMI :
1. Easy to complete and score
2. Can be used in all forensic settings (e.g. prisons, probation, aftercare rehabilitation)
3. Can be used in different disciplines and officials, (e.g. correctional officers, probation offers, psychologists, social workers, psychiatrist, criminologists, etc.)
4. Has a complete case management system
5. Has a very large normative sample (Over 130,000 of adult offenders from North America)
6. Excellent reliability and validity

RNR Principles
RiskNeedResponsivity
![Page 7: Risk Assessment for Offender Applying LS/CMI in Hong Kong SRACP experience by C.F. Li (SRACP)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070308/551be0e6550346b4588b5dd2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Risk Principle
The level of service should vary with level of risk High risk cases have high probability for recidivism, and
vice versa Over treatment may actually increase risk of recidivism (e.g.
through increased association with high risk offenders) Match level of treatment to level of risk i.e. Devote time, energy and resources to risky cases Higher risk level, more services with higher intensity
![Page 8: Risk Assessment for Offender Applying LS/CMI in Hong Kong SRACP experience by C.F. Li (SRACP)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070308/551be0e6550346b4588b5dd2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Need Principle
Target treatment interventions toward reducing major dynamic risk factors and/or enhancing major protective / strength factors
i.e. Match service interventions to criminogenic needs Beginning with higher risk / need factors Stress on more intrinsic risk / needs
![Page 9: Risk Assessment for Offender Applying LS/CMI in Hong Kong SRACP experience by C.F. Li (SRACP)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070308/551be0e6550346b4588b5dd2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Responsivity Principle
Match treatment mode to offender characteristics
2 types of Responsivity General Responsivity – refer to general approaches, e.g.
Behavioural model, Cognitive Behavioural techniques
Specific Responsivity – refers to personal characteristics, e.g. personality, ability, motivation, age, gender, race, language, various barriers, etc
Tailor treatment to the individual abilities, style, culture and personality
![Page 10: Risk Assessment for Offender Applying LS/CMI in Hong Kong SRACP experience by C.F. Li (SRACP)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070308/551be0e6550346b4588b5dd2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
