In the course we will look at risk prediction models and strategies for risk prediction, tools for recidivism in cases of intimate partner violence, sexual violence and violent behaviors (HCR-20, SVR-20 and SARA).
We will analyze the risk assessment tools for violence in minors (ERASOR) and adults (HCR-20). We will discuss risk and protective factors and study criminal dangerousness: psychopathy and neurobiology (PCL–R, PCL:YV and derivatives).
In addition to the flexibility and the latest technology in virtual learning, the student will have a personalized tutor who will help and assist them during the development of the course.
