Focusing on the early detection of violent extremists, this Brief introduces a novel Risk Assessment Toolbox (RAT) grounded in a neurocognitive perspective. It emphasizes 'neuroplasticity-in-action' and explores brain-based neural patterns linked to the development of a violent extremist mindset. The toolbox includes a cognitive indicators instrument designed as a checklist for practitioners and a software visualization program, enhancing the ability to identify potential threats effectively.
