Synopsis
This book focuses on the application of the theoretical and measurement concepts of assessment in counseling. The authors use a conversational style of writing and emphasize the skills used in assessment. They present theoretical basis of assessment and emphasize the practical components to enhance practice in counseling., Students often experience assessment courses, and subsequently the textbooks used for the course, as a statistics-heavy class accompanied by an encyclopedia of a variety of assessments. Assessment in Counseling alternatively emphasizes the skills used in assessment, thereby enabling students to apply these skills across a broad range of assessment instruments and strategies. Assessment, like most core areas of counseling, has a theoretical basis and a pertinent, practical component. However, this practical component often gets lost in the application of the skills and use of instruments that heavily rely on psychometric properties. Written in an accessible, conversational tone, this text focuses on the application of the theoretical and measurement concepts of assessment in counseling and introduces three case studies that are followed throughout the text. Additionally, instead of introducing readers to a plethora of instruments, the authors select seminal measures that students are likely to approach and use in the profession. Through the use of this text and course content, one will acquire the skills to search, select, and administer the type of assessment instruments that he/she deems helpful for their practice as a professional counselor, regardless of specialization. Ultimately, this textbook serves as an invaluable guide for administering, scoring, interpreting, and communicating assessment results.

    Item was exactly as described. Brand new in box. Shipping speed was good too. No issues whatsoever with the seller - great transaction. I’m not crazy about the product itself but that’s not the seller’s fault. That’s on me for not doing more research on things like “how this product mounts” or “how many people can access the camera feed.”
