Abstract
We respond to eleven points raised by Wilson and Looman (2010) regarding our article, “Maximizing Predictive Accuracy in Sexually Violent Predator Evaluations” (Campbell & DeClue, 2010b). We summarize our recommendations regarding risk assessment and risk communication. We continue to recommend that evaluators who use actuarial instruments should inform the trier of fact how to maximize the accuracy of predictions based on those instruments.
