Dimensional and Categorical Approaches
An unparalleled resource for accurately diagnosing an array ofchildhood problems
Psychodiagnostic Assessment of Children: Dimensional and
Categorical Approaches provides comprehensive guidelines for
assessing and diagnosing a broad spectrum of childhood disorders.
In this groundbreaking new text, Randy Kamphaus (coauthor of the
BASC and BASC-II) and Jonathan Campbell discuss both theoretical
and practical aspects of the field. Their detailed coverage
provides students and professionals with important research
findings and practical tools for accurate assessment and informed
diagnosis.
This monumental new work begins by explaining dimensional (e.g.,
classification methods that emphasize quantitative assessment
measures such as behavior rating scales) and categorical (e.g.,
classification methods that emphasize qualitative assessment
measures such as clinical observation and history-taking) methods
of assessment and diagnosis. It then highlights assessment
interpretation issues related to psychological assessment and
diagnosis. The remainder of the text covers constructs and core
symptoms of interest, diagnostic standards, assessment methods,
interpretations of findings, and case studies for all of the major
childhood disorders.
The disorders include:
* Mental retardation
* Learning disability
* Autism spectrum disorders
* Depression
* Anxiety disorders
* Traumatic brain injuries
* Eating disorders
* Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
* Conduct disorder
* Oppositional defiant disorder
* Substance abuse and dependence
* Subsyndromal and hypersyndromal impairments
