PAI Interpretive Report for Correctional Settings (PAI-CS)

Purpose: Provides assessment of offender misconduct risk, psychological needs, and rehabilitation

Age: 18-89 years

Time: 50-60 minutes

The PAI Interpretive Report for Correctional Settings (PAI-CS) enables correctional psychologists and staff to generate an interpretive report that identifies offenders’ risk of institutional misconduct during incarceration, describes offenders’ psychosocial needs, and estimates how offenders are likely to respond to incarceration and rehabilitative programs.

Key Features

• Provides unique information and experimental scales
• A Staff Management Summary provides an integrated summary of the offender’s PAI profile in terms of his or her specific psychological functioning and institutional management factors.
• Profiles contrast the offender’s test scores with those of (a) the PAI community sample, (b) approximately 1,200 incarcerated offenders from multiple correctional facilities around the country, and (c) offenders of the same gender.
• The Addictive Characteristics scale helps identify individuals at risk for substance use problems; three validity scales aid in identifying location-specific random responding and help identify inconsistent responding that is specific to correctional settings.

The PAI-CS Module is fully administered online via PARiConnect. Your clients will complete the PAI via PAI i-Admins (on-screen administrations) and then you will generate the specific Correctional Setting Reports.

Please note: If you are currently using the PAI Software Portfolio (PAI-SP), you can purchase the PAI-CS Module Download Software - please note these two modules must both be purchased and installed to access Correctional Setting reports. Data is either entered from hard-copy forms, or via on screen counter administrations (which are required for both the PAI and PAI-CS)
