CDCR reports recidivism rates (arrests, convictions, and returns to prison) through our Recidivism Data Dashboard. The three-year conviction rate is CDCR’s primary measure of recidivism (for more information, please see the Evaluation Design Section of our Recidivism Report Series below).
The three-year conviction rate is the primary measure of recidivism. The three-year arrest and return to state custody rates are supplemental measures of recidivism. 16 After three years of follow-up, 76.4 percent of the release cohort was arrested (168 youth), 50.5 percent were convicted (111 youth), and.

How does CDCR report recidivism?

What are the risk factors for recidivism among child molesters?
What is the recidivism rate of a sex offence?
There are a wide range of estimates of the recidivism rate for child molesters. However, some of the better designed research on the subject suggests a conservative estimate of long-term recidivism to be 50 percent higher, depending on the type of offender.
Read recidivism reports. CDCR currently examines recidivism outcomes (arrest, conviction, and return-to-prison rates) for people released from its adult institutions in a given fiscal year and monitored over a three-year period.

At first glance, the ideal way to address the question of risk posed by SVPs might be by examining the known recidivism rates of those who are committed as SVPs and later released. Some data collected by SVP facilities provide information on the recidivism rates of those committed as SVPs and later released. One such study examined recidivism rates...
Another way to address the question of the recidivism rate of SVPs is through comparison to a like pool of offenders. One such method involves comparing individuals who have been committed as SVPs to other high-risk sexual offending populations. That is, one could look at the recidivism rate of especially high-risk offenders in a state or country w...
Most of what we know about the risk of SVPs comes from studies examining the criminal history and risk scores of those who have been committed as offenders. Research shows that those committed as SVPs tend to have more extensive criminal histories – including convictions for both general (non-sex) and sex offenses – than those who are not selected ...
Some research has used modeling analyses to make estimations about the recidivism rates of SVPs. Neller and Petris (2013) argued that estimates of recidivism for the SVP population can be derived using three sources of data: (1) sexual recidivism rates for the general sexual offending population, (2) estimations of the accuracy of classification pr...
Each of the aforementioned ways of estimating the recidivism rates of SVPs is imperfect, though together they give us some ways in which we can begin to anchor our estimations of risk. Some noteworthy findings emerge. To begin, research suggests that evaluators do generally recommend higher-risk offenders – as per scores on risk assessment instrume...

The data indicate that: (a) both rapists and child molesters remain at risk to reoffend long after their discharge, in some cases 15–20 years after discharge; (b) there was a marked underestimation of recidivism when calculating a simple proportion (%) consisting of those who were known to have reoffended during the follow-up period, and (c ...
Recent research has found that, in most cases, for every five years an offender is in the community without committing a new sex offense, his or her risk of sexual reoffense roughly halves (Hanson, Harris, Helmus, & Thornton, 2014.)
