Psychiatric clinicians should use rating scales and questionnaires
often, for they not only facilitate targeted diagnoses and
treatment; they also facilitate links to empirical literature and
systematize the entire process of management. Clinically oriented
and highly practical, the Handbook of Clinical Rating Scales and
Assessment in Psychiatry and Mental Health is an ideal tool for the
busy psychiatrist, clinical psychologist, family physician, or
social worker. In this ground-breaking text, leading researchers
provide reviews of the most commonly used outcome and screening
measures for the major psychiatric diagnoses and treatment
scenarios. The full range of psychiatric disorders are covered in
brief but thorough chapters, each of which provides a concise
review of measurement issues related to the relevant condition,
along with recommendations on which dimensions to measure - and
when. The Handbook also includes ready-to-photocopy versions of the
most popular, valid, and reliable scales and checklists, along with
scoring keys and links to websites containing on-line versions.
Moreover, the Handbook describes well known, structured, diagnostic
interviews and the specialized training requirements for each. It
also includes details of popular psychological tests (such as
neuropsychological, personality, and projective tests), along with
practical guidelines on when to request psychological testing, how
to discuss the case with the assessment consultant and how to
integrate information from the final testing report into treatment.
Focused and immensely useful, the Handbook of Clinical Rating
Scales and Assessment in Psychiatry and Mental Health is an
invaluable resource for all clinicians who care for patients with
psychiatric disorders.
