    The Harris and Lingoes PD subscales show varying validity in predicting offender outcomes. Some subscales effectively forecast halfway house success, while others indicate reincarceration risk.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychology
    • Criminology
    • Forensic Psychology

    Background:

    • The Harris and Lingoes (1955) six Personality Disorder (PD) subscales are established measures.
    • Assessing the empirical validity of these subscales is crucial for their application in forensic settings.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the convergent validity of the six Harris and Lingoes PD subscales.
    • To determine the utility of these subscales in predicting offender outcomes, specifically halfway house completion and reincarceration.

    Main Methods:

    • Empirical assessment of the six Harris and Lingoes PD subscales.
    • Analysis of predictive accuracy for halfway house success and 1-year reincarceration rates in male offenders.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • The study found varying degrees of convergent validity across the six PD subscales.
    • Four subscales successfully predicted completion of correctional halfway house programs.
    • One subscale was found to predict reincarceration within a 1-year follow-up period.

    Conclusions:

    • The findings support the partial validity of the PD subscales for understanding offender behavior.
    • The subscales demonstrate utility in informing dispositional decisions regarding offender placement in halfway houses.
