The Essentials of Behavioral Assessment

Summary: Title of this book little to do with its contents
Review: I am sorry but this is not the type of book I expected to find when I bought it (I could not see the contents previously). This is not a book about the Essentials of Behavioral Assessment, this is a book talking about some questionnaires for children. Very frustrating! I suggest the authors or publisher to change urgently the title of the book. I think it is not fair calling this book "Essentials of Behavioral Assessment"!

Summary: Wonderful Resource
Review: This is a wonderful book covering many of the most popular measures of behavioral assessment. Many examiner manuals can be convoluted and tedious to navigate. The "Essentials" books summarizes what you need to know so you can learn the assessment quickly. Behavorial assessments typically take the form of behavior checklists which do not come with the book. This book is simply an awesome reference for those learning how to use the various types behavioral assessments but, will not provide a means of assessing behavior in and of itself.
