Abstract
In 2016, Northumbria Police were successful in securing funding from the Home Office Innovation Fund to deliver a project looking to build capabilities to tackle hidden crime and protect vulnerable people through the introduction of voluntary Eye Detect and Polygraph testing for pre- and post-conviction sexual offenders. As a consequence, they sought to appoint a professional partner to carry out an evaluation to inform future use of the EyeDetect. The main aims were to establish if there was any correlation between: (i) the results of EyeDetect and Polygraph testing, and; (ii) the results of Eye Detect/Polygraph testing and the original risk assessment of the offender utilising the Active Risk Management System (ARMS). The final results are confidential to the authors and Northumbria Police
