Clinical workers, research psychologists, and graduate students in
psychology will find this series useful for keeping abreast of the
latest issues, instruments, and methods of assessment. This latest
volume includes chapters on the Interpersonal Style Inventory, the
new Five Factor Theory of Personality, and adult sexual offenders.
This volume is the seventh in an ongoing series addressed to the in
psychological assessment. The overall aim of the developing
frontiers series is to bring critical examinations of recent
advances in assessment to clinicians, researchers, university
teachers, and graduate students, and thus to help them to keep
abreast of an important and rapidly expanding field of psychology.
This aim of course cannot be fulfilled in a single volume, but it
can be met, at least to a large degree, in a continuing series. In
this context we encourage those readers who are pleased with the
offerings in this volume to consult appropriate chapters in earlier
volumes of the series. The term psychological assessment, as used
in this series, encom passes all of the various techniques - tests,
rating scales, interview schedules, surveys, direct observational
methods, and psychophysiol ogical procedures - that are employed in
scientifically based practice and research to provide an improved
understanding of individual per sons, groups, or environmental
settings. Thus, the whole field of assess ment is taken as the
proper area of concern for the series. This includes both what are
sometimes called traditional assessment and behavioral assessment,
as well as approaches not typically classed in either of these
categories.
