This report is based on a compilation of LSI-R and ASUS records specific to the Hawaii Paroling Authority, and examines the change in LSI-R and ASUS measurements between Fiscal Years 2005 and 2006. The report is divided into two sections. Part One features analyses for the following areas: (1) Offender Demographics; (2) LSI-R Initial Assessment Statistics; (3) ASUS Initial Assessment Statistics; and (4) Treatment Level.

Part Two presents analyses for the following areas: (1) Demographics; (2) LSI-R Statistics; (3) ASUS Statistics; and (4) Treatment Level. These analyses represent an evaluation of the matched change in LSI-R and ASUS assessment scores between an offenders’initial assessment and most recent assessment.

These four reports (see above) supplement the statewide analyses presented in the larger, LSI-R & ASUS FY05-06 Parole Report by focusing on specific county-level analyses. For each county, the analyses examine the change in LSI-R and ASUS Initial Assessment statistics for Fiscal Years 2004 through 2006, and provide statistical summaries for the following areas: (1) Demographics; (2) LSI-R Statistics; (3) ASUS Statistics; and (4) Treatment Level.
