Estimation of Latent Variable Scores with Multiple Group Item Response Models: Implications for Integrative Data Analysis
Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 27(6), 1–11.
author keywords: Data integration; item response model; scaling; multi-sample; latent variable estimation
TL;DR:
A Monte Carlo simulation study was conducted to compare the accuracy of latent variable estimates from the MGM, a single-group item response model, and an MGM where group differences were ignored, and results suggest that these alternative approaches led to consistent and equally accurate latentVariable estimates.

Psychometric Properties of the MacArthur Community Violence Screening Instrument
International Journal of Forensic Mental Health, 19(3), 253–268.
author keywords: Violence; serious mental illness; item response theory; differential item functioning
TL;DR:
Findings support using theMCVSI as a measure of violence in studies of U.S. adults with mental illness and highlight the importance of using more methodologically rigorous approaches to measuring violence, including the ongoing study of the MCVSI across samples and settings.

Methodological limitations in the measurement and statistical modeling of violence among adults with mental illness
International Journal of Methods in Psychiatric Research, 28(3).
author keywords: risk screening; assessment; and management; simulation; violence measurement
MeSH headings : Adult; Bias; Biomedical Research / methods; Biomedical Research / standards; Cross-Sectional Studies; Humans; Mental Disorders / physiopathology; Models, Statistical; Risk Assessment; Self Report / standards; Substance-Related Disorders / physiopathology; Violence
TL;DR:
This study quantifies the effects of three common limitations of empirical research: insensitive measurement of violence that results in violence classification with high levels of information bias, use of cross‐sectional data, and use of data lacking spatiotemporal contiguity.

Results of the Brief Jail Mental Health Screen Across Repeated Jail Bookings
Psychiatric Services, 70(11), 1006–1012.
MeSH headings : Adolescent; Adult; Aged; Female; Humans; Interview, Psychological; Logistic Models; Male; Mental Disorders / diagnosis; Mental Disorders / epidemiology; Middle Aged; Prisoners / psychology; Prisoners / statistics & numerical data; Referral and Consultation / statistics & numerical data; Southeastern United States / epidemiology; Young Adult
TL;DR:
Findings show that BJMHS results changed across bookings, and further research is needed to determine whether changes reflect true changes in mental health status, issues with fidelity, the repeated nature of the screening process, or other factors.

Performance and clinical utility of a short violence risk screening tool in U.S. adults with mental illness.
Psychological Services, 15(4), 398–408.
author keywords: violence; screening; adults with mental illnesses; violence risk assessment
MeSH headings : Adult; Female; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Psychiatric Status Rating Scales / standards; Reproducibility of Results; Risk Assessment / methods; Schizophrenia; Sensitivity and Specificity; Violence; Young Adult
TL;DR:
Findings of the present study do not provide compelling support for the clinical utility of the screening tool developed by Singh et al. (2012) in predicting community-based violence over 6-month and 12-month durations in U.S. adults with schizophrenia.

Reliability and Validity of START and LSI-R Assessments in Mental Health Jail Diversion Clients
ASSESSMENT, 26(7), 1347–1361.
author keywords: mental health jail diversion; risk assessment; protective factors; recidivism
MeSH headings : Adult; Criminal Psychology / methods; Criminals / psychology; Female; Humans; Male; Mental Health; Middle Aged; Prisoners / psychology; Recidivism / psychology; Reproducibility of Results; Risk Assessment / methods; Risk Assessment / standards; United States
TL;DR:
There were some differences in accuracy of START vulnerability and LSI-R total scores and risk estimates in predicting jail days (but not arrests), over shorter follow-ups, but no such differences were found for START strength total scores across any follow-up period or recidivism measure.
