Stalkers can inflict severe injury upon and have been known to kill their victims. Based on the detailed responses of 1,565 stalking victims, a set of key questions was produced with the aim of increasing the opportunities of police officers to identify potentially dangerous stalkers. Despite marked methodological differences and the inclusion of a large number of variables, regression analyses for significant correlates for physical assault per se and for severe violence largely reflected the results of earlier works. For severe violence (n=136), the most important correlate was a high level of victim fear, suggesting that victims are adept at assessing their own risk of stalker violence. The set of 11 questions performed well on preliminary tests and is presented here.
stalking 者可能会对受害者造成严重伤害，甚至导致其死亡。基于 1565 名 stalking 受害者的详细回答，我们制定了一套关键问题，旨在增加警察识别潜在危险 stalking 者的机会。尽管存在明显的方法学差异，并包含了大量变量，但对身体攻击本身和严重暴力的显著相关因素的回归分析在很大程度上反映了早期研究的结果。对于严重暴力（n=136），最重要的相关因素是受害者高度恐惧，这表明受害者善于评估自己遭受 stalking 者暴力的风险。这 11 个问题在初步测试中表现良好，现呈现于此。
