Not long ago, conducting child assessment was as simple as
stating that the child gets along with others or the child lags
behind his peers . Today s pediatric psychologists and allied
professionals, by contrast, know the critical importance of using
accurate measures with high predictive quality to identify
pathologies early, form precise case conceptualizations, and
provide relevant treatment options.
Assessing Childhood Psychopathology and Developmental
Disabilities provides a wide range of evidence-based methods in an
immediately useful presentation from infancy through adolescence.
Noted experts offer the most up-to-date findings in the most
pressing areas, including: (1) Emerging trends, new technologies,
and implementation issues. (2) Interviewing techniques and report
writing guidelines. (3) Intelligence testing, neuropsychological
assessment, and scaling methods for measuring psychopathology. (4)
Assessment of major pathologies, including ADHD, conduct disorder,
bipolar disorder, and depression. (5) Developmental disabilities,
such as academic problems, the autism spectrum and comorbid
pathology, and self-injury. (6) Behavioral medicine, including
eating and feeding disorders as well as pain management.
This comprehensive volume is an essential resource for the
researcher s library and the clinician s desk as well as a
dependable text for graduate and postgraduate courses in clinical
child, developmental, and school psychology.
(A companion volume, Treating Childhood Psychopathology and
Developmental Disabilities, is also available to ensure greater
continuity on the road from assessment to intervention to
outcome.)"
