Definition

  • The Short-Term Assessment of Risk and Treatability (START) is a concise clinical guide for the dynamic assessment of short-term (i.e., weeks to months) risk for violence (to self and others) and treatability. START guides the assessor toward an integrated, balanced opinion to evaluate the client's risk across seven domains: violence to others, suicide, self-harm, selfneglect, unauthorized absence, substance use, and risk of being victimized. [Source: Encyclopedia of Psychology and Law; Short-Term Assessment of Risk and Treatability (START)]
