The prediction of violence continues to be a topic of considerable interest in forensic psychology. The current dissertation study tested the usefulness of one such model and the ability of various factors to postdict the density of previous violence. Specifically, the current research focused on a theoretically derived model from the animal literature adapted to the study of human aggression and the measure reflecting this model, the Violence Eliciting Situational Inventory (VESI).

520 $a The prediction of violence continues to be a topic of considerable interest in forensic psychology. The current dissertation study tested the usefulness of one such model and the ability of various factors to postdict the density of previous violence. Specifically, the current research focused on a theoretically derived model from the animal literature adapted to the study of human aggression and the measure reflecting this model, the Violence Eliciting Situational Inventory (VESI).
520 $a The participants were 201 forensic patients (173 men, 28 women) who were assessed in terms of levels of predatory, defensive, and irritable aggression. Overall, 67% of the participants had been charged with a violent offence as their index offence. Several demographic, psychometric, and criminogenic variables were included in this investigation. Self-report measures assessed psychopathy, hostility, social hopelessness, and criminal sentiments. Overall, the results provided general support for three main hypotheses. First, it was found that violent response patterns, as assessed by the VESI, could be grouped into categories reflecting predatory responses, realistic defensive/non-realistic defensive responses, and irritable responses. Second, individual difference variables accounted for a significant proportion of the variance in the past density of violence; key predictors were number of defensive responses from the VESI, social hopelessness, victim injury level, and psychiatric diagnoses. Third, the results illustrated the usefulness of distinguishing the sample in terms of diagnostic group and offender type. Overall, the results provide general support for the new aggression model and the VESI appears to be a potentially useful measure. The results also highlight the usefulness of a multi-factorial approach that includes demographic variables, personality variables, and specific indices such as the number of past offenses. The strengths, limitations, and implications of the results are discussed within the context of the broader literature on risk assessment and violence.
