The Forensic Psychologist's Report Writing Guide
Editat de Sarah Brown, Erica Bowen, David Prescotten Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 mai 2017
Written and edited by an international range of experts from the UK, North America and Australasia, it provides clear advice on a range of assessments, from psychometric tests to personality functioning, and includes real-life examples to illustrate key points. Uniquely, the book also offers guidance on the range of different client groups that forensic psychologists work with across both civil and legal contexts, including juveniles, female clients, couples and those with cognitive impairments. From core principles to writing style to key issues, each chapter also includes a checklist of advice and further reading.
Comprehensive and practical, The Forensic Psychologist’s Reporting Writing Guide is a user-friendly companion to this critical and often overlooked skill, and will be essential reading for both neophyte and experienced forensic psychologists alike.

Recenzii
'Those who aspire to excellence in forensic and correctional report-writing will find that the various chapters in The Forensic Psychologists’ Report Writing Guide offer superb guidance. It will be supremely helpful to psychologists who write such reports, attorneys who use them in litigation, judges who rely on them to inform their decisions, and clinical administrators who seek high quality in their reports.' - Kirk Heilbrun, Drexel University, Philadelphia, USA
'This volume is an excellent resource for students developing their report writing skills, and an essential desk reference for practitioners. An international team of leading academics and practitioners take an evidence-based approach supported by concrete real world examples and advice on the diverse range of reports that forensic psychologists are asked to write.' - Caoilte Ó Ciardha, University of Kent, Canterbury, UK
"Overall, I thoroughly recommend this book to trainee and qualified practitioners. The editors have done an excellent job of collating accessible and practical expertise from the current field. New assessors will find it a useful primer and existing assessors will find chapters on neglected areas stimulating for new reflection. I recommend using it alongside a writing style guide and maintaining a critical stance, remembering that we can still improve the accessibility, language and cultural sensitivity of our reports." - Sophie Ellis, Trainee Forensic Psychologist, Institute of Criminology: Cambridge University, Forensic Update (British Psychological Society)
