The aim of the current study is to investigate criminal psycho-social cognition, criminal associates and personality traits as predictors of non-violent recidivism. \ud\udThe sample consisted of 179 male non-violent offenders. Each offender completed self-report measures assessing criminal attitudes, criminal associates, criminal social identity and Eysenck's personality traits. Recidivism was assessed through self-reported frequency of imprisonment. A sequential moderated multiple regression analysis investigated the relationship between criminal thinking, criminal social identity and level of recidivism with the moderating role of personality. \ud\udResults indicate that criminal thinking is moderated by personality in the prediction of recidivism such that respondents who score high on psychoticism and low on neuroticism and extraversion show a positive association between criminal think styles and recidivism. \ud\udIt is suggested that future research and risk assessment instruments consider the interaction between risk factors in the prediction of recidivism, rather than investigating the factors independently. \ud\udThis study is a valuable contribution as it investigates non-violent recidivism specifically, and informs on the moderating influence of personality in the prediction of this behaviour
