Comprehensive, scientifically based coverage on conducting
behavioral assessments, analyzing results, and forming clinical
recommendations
Behavioral Assessment and Case Formulation thoroughly
outlines the underlying principles of the behavioral assessment
process. This book clearly explains how the principles and methods
of behavioral assessment central to the formulation of functional
analysis are also helpful in guiding strategies for determining
interventions and measuring the processes and outcomes.
This comprehensive resource offers up-to-date answers to
relevant questions of the clinical assessment process,
including:
* What is the best assessment strategy to use with a particular
client?
* Which assessment methods will best capture a client’s unique
strengths, limitations, behavior problems, and intervention
goals?
* How can data from multiple sources be integrated in order to
yield a valid and clinically useful case formulation?
* Which procedures should be enacted in order to insure a positive
clinician-client relationship?
* How should intervention processes and outcomes be measured and
monitored?
Filled with case studies, Behavioral Assessment and Case
Formulation provides guidelines for the application of
behavioral assessment strategies and methods that can strengthen
the validity and utility of clinical judgments, as well as improve
the delivery of care.
