The Sex Offender Treatment Intervention and Progress Scale (SOTIPS) is a 16-item rating scale designed to assess dynamic risk among adult male sex offenders and degree of change at 6-month intervals during treatment. The purpose of the present study was to examine the psychometric properties of the SOTIPS in a construction sample of 759 adult male sex offenders who were under correctional supervision and enrolled in cognitive-behavioral community treatment in Vermont between 2001 and 2007. The scale showed acceptable interrater reliability. SOTIPS scores at 1, 7, and 13 months after participants began treatment predicted sexual, violent, and any recidivism, and return to prison at fixed 1- and 3-year follow-up periods (AUCs = .60 to .85). Combined SOTIPS and Static-99R scores predicted all recidivism types (AUCs = .67 to .89) and outperformed either instrument alone when both instruments had similar predictive power. Participants who demonstrated treatment progress, as reflected by reductions in SOTIPS scores, showed lower rates of recidivism than those who did not.
性犯罪者治疗干预和进展量表（SOTIPS）是一个由 16 个项目组成的评定量表，旨在评估成年男性性犯罪者的动态风险，以及在治疗期间每 6 个月的变化程度。本研究的目的是在一个由 759 名成年男性性犯罪者组成的构建样本中，检验 SOTIPS 的心理测量学特性。这些性犯罪者在 2001 年至 2007 年间，处于矫正监督之下，并参加了佛蒙特州的认知行为社区治疗。该量表显示出可接受的评分者间信度。参与者开始治疗后 1、7 和 13 个月的 SOTIPS 得分预测了性犯罪、暴力犯罪和任何再犯，以及在固定的 1 年和 3 年随访期内返回监狱（AUCs =.60 至.85）。SOTIPS 得分和静态-99R 得分的综合预测了所有再犯类型（AUCs =.67 至.89），并且当两个工具都具有相似的预测能力时，优于任何单一工具。与那些没有进展的人相比，那些反映 SOTIPS 得分降低的治疗进展的参与者，再犯率更低。
