Appropriate for students and practitioners alike, this book teaches readers how to perform assessments on patients in the absence of the instruments and assistants that many standard procedures assume.
There have been numerous books published that have dealt with psychological assessment. These books have ranged from the theoretical to the clinical. However, most of the pragmatics involved in the day-to-day activities of the psychological assessor often have been neglected in the press.

In light of the above, the primary objective of Psychological Assessment in Clinical Practice is to provide the reader(students and practitioners alike) with the realities of conducting psychological assessment in clinical settings where there is not the availability of a plethora of research assistants and staff. Indeed, most individuals end up being solo practitioners or at best work in settings where they must conduct assessment themselves. This multi-authored book, then, details the specifics as to how this is done.

Michel Hersen, Ph.D., ABPP, is Dean and Professor of the School of Professional Psychology at Pacific University.
