Tool Description

The Fighting-High Risk Behavioral Assessment (FHRBA-10) is a tool designed to identify and assess behaviors associated with high risk, particularly in contexts involving conflict or aggression. The FHRBA-10 consists of 10 questions focusing on various aspects of high-risk behaviors, such as aggression, risk-taking, and stress management.

Data Analysis and Usage

Data collected through the FHRBA-10 are analyzed to identify patterns and trends in high-risk behaviors. Analysis may involve statistical methods to assess group differences or understand the relationship between high-risk behaviors and other psychological or social factors. Results are used to develop intervention strategies and preventative measures.

Objective

The primary objective of the FHRBA-10 is to provide a detailed picture of behaviors linked to high risk to assist in managing and preventing these behaviors. The tool is used to identify individuals or groups who may be at risk due to aggressive or risky behaviors and to suggest interventions to minimize that risk.

Calibration

The FHRBA-10 is scored using a five-point Likert scale, where participants rate each statement from “Strongly Disagree” to “Strongly Agree.” Scores are aggregated to provide an overall risk profile based on an individual’s behaviors. Higher scores indicate a greater tendency towards high-risk behaviors.
