Chris Ralston is a licensed psychologist in the state of Iowa. Broadly, his research has focused on measurement of psychological constructs and traits. For most of his research career, he focused on factors predictive of sexual recidivism amongst individuals with historical sexual offenses. That work included the development and co-authorship of the Juvenile Sexual Offender Recidivism Risk Assessment Tool - II (JSORRAT-II). More recently, his focus has shifted toward the measurement of psychedelic states and the relation of those states to mental health outcomes.
