Syscon's Quest Assessments

Do you think that (10+90=100) and (67+33=100) are the same thing? Is it just the final score that matters, or is it important to know how you got there?

MODELING Solutions' Quest application takes advantage of the common sense notion that an offender's risk depends on the type of risk factors they present, not just a score. Using advanced modeling techniques, Quest examines an offender's risk factor pattern to create a simulation of the risk posed to the community and thus overcomes the limitations of traditional summed-scored risk assessment approaches.

Because Quest constructs a model of how an offender's risk factor pattern interacts and links it directly to empirical outcomes, you can play out "What-If?" scenarios, testing which criminogenic need is likely to be linked to future recidivism reduction and how to reduce that risk. This isn't possible with older score-based assessment tools--only the Quest model allows you to do this.
