The article doesn't actually explain what Saprof is. Is it a computer program? Biscuittin (talk) 20:05, 3 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

SAPROF is a book, containing the instructions for assessing and rating 17 protective factors which serves to supplement any other assessment of risk factors (e.g. the widely used HCR-20) employed for predicting the likelihood of violence in forensic psychiatric patients or similar kinds of people.

Nevertheless, the article still doesn't explain what Saprof is. This article explains what the acronym SAPROF means, which is short for Structured Assessment of Protective Factors, and indicates it is used as a forensic psychiatric assessment tool to predict future violence. But the article still gives very little context about when and where its use is appropriate and what it is intended to assess and who might benefit from its use. Also, the article and sources refer to the capitalized version of the word, not the lower case version, so the article title should be SAPROF, not Saprof, as that would be in keeping with the criteria for naming articles precisely. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 22:28, 30 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
