Book The Thematic Apperception Test  the Children  s Apperception Test  and the Senior Apperception Technique in Clinical Use

Download or read book The Thematic Apperception Test the Children s Apperception Test and the Senior Apperception Technique in Clinical Use written by Leopold Bellak and published by Allyn & Bacon. This book was released on 1993 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For forty years this book has been the leading source of training for clinicians interested in learning how to use thematic apperception techniques in clinical practice. Interest in these techniques is on the rise; numerous surveys conducted over the last 10 years have found the Thematic Apperception Test to be among the most frequently used instruments across a variety of clinical settings. Dr. Bellak has written this new edition to reflect the current renewal of interest in the T.A.T and related techniques. Like its predecessors, the fifth edition shows the reader in an easy, orderly way how to progress from primary data to clinical diagnosis. With a rich selection of case material and many sample interpretations, Dr. Bellak provides a wealth of examples and actual analyzed test records. He also provides a card-by-card analysis of which T.A.T cards are most likely to be helpful for specific purposes. The fifth edition has been completely updated to reflect the newest research; in addition to earlier research, the annotated bibliography contains descriptive entries on more than 120 papers and studies published since 1980. Current issues and trends are also discussed. Dr. Bellak notes the increasing role of brief psychotherapy and points out the important contribution apperceptive techniques can make in this field. He explains how apperceptive tests can be used to assist in neuropsychological assessment (such as in attention deficit disorder) by analyzing the subject's organization, language use, and attention to pertinent picture details in T.A.T stories. And he shows how the Senior Apperception Technique (S.A.T) may prove helpful in pinpointing problems in the elderly that can be successfully addressed by physicians, social workers, and nurses not specifically trained in clinical psychology. Once again Dr. Bellak has produced a major contribution to the literature of apperceptive techniques, one that will enhance the work of a new generation of psychologists, psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, social workers, and other clinicians.

Book Understanding Psychological Assessment

Download or read book Understanding Psychological Assessment written by William I. Dorfman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introductory texts on psychological testing and evaluation historically are not in short supply. Typically, however, such texts have been relatively superficial in their discussion of clinical material and have focused primarily on the theoretical and psychometric properties of indi vidual tests. More practical, clinically relevant presentations of psychological instruments have been confined to individual volumes with advanced and often very technical information geared to the more sophisticated user. Professors in introductory graduate courses are often forced to adopt several advanced texts to cover the material, at the same time helping students wade through unnecessary technical information in order to provide a basic working knowl edge of each test. Understanding Psychological Assessment is an attempt to address these concerns. It brings together into a single volume a broad sampling of the most respected instruments in the psychologist's armamentarium along with promising new tests of cognitive, vocational, and personality functioning. Additionally, it presents the most updated versions of these tests, all in a practical, clearly written format that covers the development, psychometrics, administra tive considerations, and interpretive hypotheses for each instrument. Clinical case studies allow the reader to apply the interpretive guidelines to real clinical data, thereby reinforcing basic understanding of the instrument and helping to insure that both the student and practi tioner can actually begin to use the test. Understanding Psychological Assessment includes cognitive and personality tests for adults, children, and adolescents, as well as chapters on the theory of psychological measurement and integrated report writing.

Book TEMAS  Tell Me A Story  Assessment in Multicultural Societies

Download or read book TEMAS Tell Me A Story Assessment in Multicultural Societies written by Giuseppe Costantino and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-08-26 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethnic minority children now comprise over 75 percent of students in 100 of the largest cities in the United States. However, these students have not been given equal access to, nor benefited from, the contemporary mental health system as have their non-minority peers. TEMAS (Tell-Me-A-Story) Assessment in Multicultural Societies examines the health/mental care system in which professional service providers, including psychologists, labor to offer quality care for youth in the United States. The authors ardently support the use of the TEMAS assessment instrument as a useful tool for diagnosis of all youngsters, particularly its use on the growing population of minority children and adolescents. Part I presents a rationale and context for employing TEMAS. Introductory chapters describe the mental health status of the population at-risk, as well as systems of care for youth where assessment and intervention are components. Topics to follow highlight a history of positive TEMAS test reviews with the detail required by instructors for preparing dedicated TEMAS courses. The volume thoroughly outlines cross-cultural studies and illustrates case examples of European-American, Hispanic/Latino, Asian-American, and forensic studies. TEMAS (Tell-Me-A-Story) Assessment in Multicultural Societies brings practical insight to instructors who teach standard assessment courses; clinicians, counselors, and school psychologists; assessment specialists; and administrators concerned with mental health services designed for children and adolescents.

Book Psychological Assessment in South Africa

Download or read book Psychological Assessment in South Africa written by Sumaya Laher and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the research related to psychological assessment across South Africa. The thirty-six chapters provide a combination of psychometric theory and practical assessment applications in order to combine the currently disparate research that has been conducted locally in this field. Existing South African texts on psychological assessment are predominantly academic textbooks that explain psychometric theory and provide brief descriptions of a few testing instruments. Psychological Assessment in South Africa provides in-depth coverage of a range of areas within the broad field of psychological assessment, including research conducted with various psychological instruments. The chapters critically interrogate the current Eurocentric and Western cultural hegemonic practices that dominate the field of psychological assessment. The book therefore has the potential to function both as an academic text for graduate students, as well as a specialist resource for professionals, including psychologists, psychometrists, remedial teachers and human resource practitioners.
