Jordan Wright's \u003ci\u003eConducting Psychological Assessment\u003c\/i\u003e is a comprehensive step-by-step guide to every aspect of psychological testing and assessment. Blending clinical wisdom with rigorous empirical evidence, the author guides readers though every phase of the assessment process, from selecting appropriate measures and collecting test data through writing assessment reports and providing feedback to clients. Experienced clinicians, early career psychologists, and students will all benefit from this important book; it should be on every clinician's bookshelf.\" \u003cb\u003e—Robert F.

Dr. Wright presents scholarly research, draws on extensive clinical experience, and illustrates his guidelines with rich case examples. Much of this information is typically not included in other assessment books, such as how to select tests, strategies to integrate contradictory data, and how to work with clients who disagree with assessment results. Accordingly, I recommend this to all health professionals involved with clinical assessment.\" \u003cb\u003e—Gary Groth-Marnat, PhD,\u003c\/b\u003e ABPP, ABAP\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47988972749029,"sku":"NP9781119687221","price":72.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781119687221.jpg?v=1761782267","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/conducting-psychological-assessment-isbn-9781119687221","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
