Fundamentals of Psychological Assessment and Testing

Autor John M. Spores
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 iul 2023
Fundamentals of Psychological Assessment and Testing describes how to effectively practice psychological assessment, diagnosis, case conceptualization, and treatment planning in the outpatient mental health field. Written principally for those in training and clinical practice, this book adopts an applied practical approach, outlining the process in a clear, step-by-step manner, with numerous illustrations, flowcharts, figures, and tables. It also includes report outlines and practice forms with pre-drafted treatment recommendations, available on an accompanying e-resource, for the major psychotherapy approaches and common alternative treatment modalities. Chapters describe how to employ these practice outlines and forms, with clearly defined concepts and psychological constructs. Finally, the book includes a chapter on the basics of psychological measurement so that mental health clinicians of all training backgrounds know when to utilize this valuable service and be sufficiently knowledgeable in how to read and interpret clients’ test scores. Nowhere else in one title will readers find such valuable information regarding the practice of psychological assessment, diagnosis, case formulation, and treatment planning.
This book is essential for those in both mental health clinical training and practice.

Recenzii

"This book is a must read for aspiring clinicians and those responsible for training the next generation of mental health providers. It reflects Dr. Spores’s broad depth and breadth of knowledge informed by decades of clinical experience and his background in law. Dr. Spores skillfully weaves together the complex intersection between principles of assessment, ethical obligations, and legal guidelines. This book takes the reader from broad topics to specific strategies for addressing complex psychological, cultural, and social issues in a way that remains sensitive to identity and focused on maximizing accuracy of assessments. While many texts refer to thorny issues in clinical practice, Dr. Spores provides clear step-by-step guidance on effectively addressing these issues. Above all else, this book provides emerging professionals with practical strategies and resources for assessing psychopathology and making empirically informed treatment decisions."
Dean Lauterbach, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, Eastern Michigan University
"This comprehensive guideline on the fundamentals of psychological assessment and testing should be in the hands of every new mental health practitioner, as well as on the reference shelves of seasoned clinicians alike. Of particular utility is the inclusion of treatment recommendations for all of the major psychotherapy approaches. Spores’s work is well-researched, useful, and clearly informed by his 30+ years of experience in the field."
