The principle objective of this book is to help mental health professionals to more accurately assess individuals from various ethnic, cultural and linguistic backgrounds. The culture-fair techniques and strategies of the book tap into a broad range of the abilities and aptitudes of the examinee. Assessment and Culture provides a cultural frame of reference which allows the examiner to take into account the individual's social and cultural factors in development, coping style and personal history. Individual chapters consider the practical aspects of assessing the intellectual, linguistic, academic, visual-motor, emotional and vocational functioning of culturally diverse children. An entire section of the book is devoted to writing the assessment report. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Psychiatry|xMethodology.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85108389 650 0 Communication in psychiatry.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85029089 650 0 Cultural psychiatry.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh87000716 650 2 Psychological Tests.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D011581 650 7 Psychiatry|xMethodology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1081163 650 7 Communication in psychiatry.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/870253 650 7 Cultural psychiatry.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 885048 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Armour-Thomas, Eleanor.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n87819767 776 08 |iPrint version:|aGopaul-McNicol, Sharon-Ann.|tAssessment and culture.|dSan Diego : Academic Press, ©2002 |z0122904516|w(DLC) 2001094481|w(OCoLC)48490168 830 0 Practical resources for the mental health professional. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n98015396 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=91112|zOnline eBook.
