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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the field of sport psychology has matured, so a greater appreciation for a diversity of training models, research methodologies, and therapeutic approaches, opposed to the dominant models of objective testing, has developed. The Athlete Apperception Technique (AAT) sets out a sport-specific projective test for practitioners working in sport and exercise service delivery or counselling work with athletes and coaches. This innovative book includes a basic primer on projective methods and the psychoanalytic theory behind them; a history of projective, storytelling instruments in clinical psychology; the development of the image set for the AAT; some examples of interpreting AAT image stories; instructions for the administration of the AAT; a scoring guide for the stories produced; and in-depth descriptions of the stimulus properties of each image in the AAT, along with all images presented as full-page illustrations. The AAT will help sport practitioners identify and assess personality features, relationships, anxieties, achievement, motivation, and perfectionism, and augment the recent shift in orientation for service delivery to athletes and provide a more in-depth understanding of athletes’ characters. The AAT is useful supplementary reading for students of sport psychology and a novel tool for any practicing sport psychologist.

Download or read book Principles and Practice of Child and Adolescent Forensic Mental Health written by Elissa P. Benedek and published by American Psychiatric Pub. This book was released on 2009-10-20 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When care of younger patients raises thorny legal questions, you need answers you can trust: that's why this book belongs on every clinician's reference shelf. Principles and Practice of Child and Adolescent Forensic Mental Health is a timely and authoritative source that covers issues ranging from child custody to litigation concerns as it walks clinicians through the often-confusing field of depositions and courtroom testimony. The book expands on the 2002 volume Principles and Practice of Child and Adolescent Forensic Psychiatry winner of the 2003 Manfred S. Guttmacher Award, to meet pressing twenty-first-century concerns, from telepsychiatry to the Internet, while continuing to cover basic issues, such as forensic evaluation, psychological screening, and the interviewing of children for suspected sexual abuse, that are important to both new and experienced practitioners. Many of its chapters have been entirely rewritten by new authors to provide fresh insight into such topics as child custody; juvenile law; abuse, neglect, and permanent wardship cases; transcultural, transracial, and gay/lesbian parenting and adoption; and the reliability and suggestibility of children's statements. It also includes significant material not found in the previous volume: Two chapters on special education offer an introduction to screening instruments and help practitioners determine a child's potential need for special education programs and services. A chapter on cultural competence helps readers improve the accuracy and responsiveness of forensic evaluations and minimize the chance of an unjust outcome resulting from misguided expert opinion. The section on youth violence features three new chapters -- Taxonomy and Neurobiology of Aggression, Prevention of School Violence, and Juvenile Stalkers -- plus a newly written chapter on assessment of violence risk, offering guidance on how to confront problems such as bullying and initiate effective family interventions. A chapter on psychiatric malpractice and professional liability addresses these legal concerns with an eye toward cases involving minors. A chapter on psychological autopsy covers evaluation of the circumstances surrounding pediatric suicides, describing various types of equivocal deaths and discussing legal issues such as admissibility of the autopsy in court. A newly written chapter on the Internet expands the previous book's focus on child pornography to help practitioners deal with issues ranging from online threats to emotional and legal consequences of interactions in cyberspace. This is a valuable reference not only for practitioners in psychiatry and the mental health field but also for attorneys and judges. It opens up a field that may be too often avoided and helps professionals make their way through legal thickets with confidence.
