The Jesness is considered part of the gold standard interview for forensic youth assessment, but there are some criticisms of the validity scales. I am interested in creating and testing the utility of a new validity scale, but need a larger database of completed Jesness Inventory- Revised (JI-R). Does anyone have such a database that would like to collaborate on a brief project with possibility for publication?
Dear Seth:
I wonder, Would you be interested in collecting data on Hong Kong Chinese youths?
I am affiliated with the Department of Applied Social Sciences at City University of Hong Kong. We have colleagues working in the field of criminology and youth studies. We might be able to help you collect data in the Chinese communities, if that also interests you.
Feel free to let me know what you think.
Regards,
Katty Ho
