For each static risk subgroup, we used logistic regression to estimate the association between each dynamic factor (for a list of these factors see Table 149) and violent offending. The corresponding sample size and violence prevalence for each static risk subgroup were as follows: low risk, 290 cases (9.4%); medium risk, 284 cases (23.7%); and high risk, 180 cases (33.5%). Among 154 patients with BPD, 148 had information on violent outcome.

The Violence Risk Scale: Sexual Offender Version (VRS:SO) is a rating scale designed to assess risk among sexual offenders and the degree of change achieved in treatment. When we compared alcohol-dependent prisoners (AUDIT score of 20) with all other prisoners (AUDIT score of <20), we found that alcohol-dependent prisoners were more likely to commit acquisitive crimes (AOR 2.50, 95% CI 1.22 to 5.12; p=0.012); hazardous drinking was also related to acquisitive crimes (AOR 1.99, 95% CI 1.20 to 3.29; p=0.008).
