the difference that using risk factors can make to identifying individuals for intervention. The factors found to be mostly strongly associated are gender, number of siblings in the

household, having experienced child maltreatment, lack of self-control, early puberty, experience of victimisation, frequency of truanting, bullying, self-harm, risk taking/gambling, feeling

isolated, and having previously committed minor violence, theft, public disorder and/or cybercrime. It shows that using combinations of risk factors and those with stronger associations can

increase the ability of interventions to reach those most at risk. However, the trade-off is that not all at risk individuals will be reached. UPDATES TO THIS PAGE Published 23 July 2019
