SSP08: A Conversation with Dr. Sandy Jung about Applying the Risk-Need-Responsivity Principles in Practice

Sandy Jung, PhD, RPsych, is Associate Professor of Psychology at MacEwan University in Edmunton, Canada. She is widely known in the field for her expertise on the subject of applying risk-need-responsivity principles to the management and treatment of sexual offenders.

Listen as Sandy offers advice on how clinicians can shape their everyday practice around RNR by:

  • using the risk principle to assign the appropriate level of service for a client
  • selecting interventions based on the client’s criminogenic need
  • assessing a client’s responsivity issues and adjusting interventions appropriately
