This newly updated edition of Personality Assessment retains important summaries of the most widely-used personality assessment measures written by experts in the field, but is now expanded to include chapters relevant to students and seasoned practitioners alike.

Personality assessment remains one of the most important activities of practicing psychologists. Up-to-date information about best practices, psychometrics, and test-based assessment are essential to learning and practicing this important clinical skill. This edition of Personality Assessment is a comprehensive revision of the prior, widely-used text.

New chapters on psychometrics, forensics, best practices, report-writing, and neuropsychology will make this edition both informative and clinically useful. The comprehensive coverage should make this text a useful addition to graduate courses in counseling and clinical psychology. Both students and practitioners should find this a comprehensive guide to evidence-based assessment practice in personality assessment.
