Book Synopsis Casualties Of Childhood by : Bobbie Kaufman
Download or read book Casualties Of Childhood written by Bobbie Kaufman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-24 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Against the backdrop of powerful case vignettes and their accompanying House, Tree, Person and Kinetic Family Drawings, the discussion focuses primarily on the essential link between childhood sexual abuse and specific developmental problems. Given that sexual abuse is commonly directed toward latency-age young people, it is imperative that this connection be given greater emphasis in the literature.

For therapists of all persuasions, it is a much-needed resource.

Book Synopsis Teaching and Learning Personality Assessment by : Leonard Handler
Download or read book Teaching and Learning Personality Assessment written by Leonard Handler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we move from an understanding of the administration, scoring, and interpretation of responses on various personality assessment instruments to the ability to put our understanding into words and communicate it effectively to referral agents and to patients themselves? And how do we transmit that ability to students? Teaching and Learning Personality Assessment strives to fill a gap in the literature and in many training programs. The editors have assembled a group of renowned clinicians, noted not only for their own acumen in personality assessment but also for their teaching talent, who present in detail time-tested techniques for teaching assessment. Readers have the opportunity to "sit beside" these seasoned mentors and learn their special skills. Numerous examples illustrate the key concepts. For every instructor of personality assessment who has ever pondered ways to organize a course or to convey difficult material, and for every student who has worried about how to translate theory into practice, in the context of a course or on his or her own, this book will offer enlightenment and provide uniquely practical assistance. It will be important reading for psychologists and trainees at every level of experience. Its clear style, vivid anecdotes, frank discussion of disagreements in the field, and innovative ideas make it an excellent text for both introductory and advanced courses.
Book Synopsis Psychological Assessment in South Africa by : Sumaya Laher
Download or read book Psychological Assessment in South Africa written by Sumaya Laher and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the research related to psychological assessment across South Africa. The thirty-six chapters provide a combination of psychometric theory and practical assessment applications in order to combine the currently disparate research that has been conducted locally in this field. Existing South African texts on psychological assessment are predominantly academic textbooks that explain psychometric theory and provide brief descriptions of a few testing instruments. Psychological Assessment in South Africa provides in-depth coverage of a range of areas within the broad field of psychological assessment, including research conducted with various psychological instruments. The chapters critically interrogate the current Eurocentric and Western cultural hegemonic practices that dominate the field of psychological assessment. The book therefore has the potential to function both as an academic text for graduate students, as well as a specialist resource for professionals, including psychologists, psychometrists, remedial teachers and human resource practitioners.
Book Synopsis The Projective Use Of Mother-And- Child Drawings: A Manual by : Jacquelyn Gillespie
Download or read book The Projective Use Of Mother-And- Child Drawings: A Manual written by Jacquelyn Gillespie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-21 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique and powerful new projective technique is now available to mental health professionals. Based on the most primary of human relationships that between mother and child this technique is able to foster projections and identify perceptions of self and others that carry an unusually strong component of unconscious material. Strikingly clear and accessible, The Projective Use of Mother-and-Child Drawings is one of the few books on projective techniques to provide a consistent theoretical outlook and to address the very significant issues of transference and countertransference as they relate to this technique. While firmly grounded in a psychodynamic view of personality development, the volume also conveys a clinical outlook with applications suitable to a variety of theoretical paradigms. The author comprehensively considers the theoretical and practical aspects of mother-and-child drawings and how to both use and assess them to gain insight into the most fundamental reaches of the self. She consistently cautions against overly simplified interpretations of the drawings and stresses the importance of using conclusions drawn from them only as indications for further assessment, confirmation, or rejection. The book is replete with examples of mother-and-child drawings from all age groups in both average populations and those with both mental and physical pathologies. The volume opens with a careful discussion of the theoretical considerations behind mother-and-child drawings, as well as the development and validation of projective drawing techniques in general. The next section, on research issues, discourages diagnostic labeling in favor of making optimum use of the highly personal and idiosyncratic nature of these drawings. This chapter features an interesting attempt to classify mother-and-child drawings in relation to size of the figures. A particularly fascinating chapter on the impact of art on the therapist focuses on artwork done by professional artists who have addressed the mother-and-child theme. The author explores and analyzes several thematic works of art from varying time periods and cultures. It is her intent to help mental health professionals to explore their responses to pictorial art as individuals and thereby gain new understandings of related transference and countertransference issues with clients. Chapter four provides clear instructions for administering mother-and-child drawings as a projective technique and guidelines for their interpretation. This section provides samples and analyses of age-typical drawings from the general population. They vary greatly in style and artistic proficiency and are included to provide an idea of the usual developmental sequence of drawing characteristics from early childhood through the adult years. Drawings of groups with demonstrated psychological pathologies or physical and developmental abnormalities comprise the final chapter. This section approaches the interpretation of drawings by asking questions about how they communicate basic self and object relations issues. This commanding volume, of interest, to students and professionals alike, will provide art therapists, school psychologists and mental health practitioners of all stripes with a powerful new projective technique to add to their professional armamentarium.
