The advantages of the RFPP Farrington(2000) argues that the risk factor prevention paradigm is a simple approach to identifying the key risk factors for offending and implements prevention methods which are created to counteract them. This approach not only identifies variables to target but it identifies individuals in need of an intervention programme also. Farrington highlights the key advantage of the paradigm which bridges the apparent gap between academic research and practical policy making. What makes it even more attractive to practitioners is that it is easy to understand and communicate and it is accepted. He continues by arguing that risk factors and intervention plans are based on empirical research instead of theories and it avoids difficult theoretical questions about which risk factors have causal effects.
