Summary

"This second edition of the Oxford Handbook of Personality Assessment by James N. Butcher, now titled The Oxford Handbook of Personality and Psychopathology Assessment, is updated to cover a range of topics written by authors with high levels of expertise in their chapter's topic. In comparison to the first edition, authors were asked were asked to (a) integrate contemporary dimensional models of personality and psychopathology, (b) use a multimethod approach in which the method of assessment shapes the desired construct, (c) integrate collaborative/therapeutic assessment (C/TA) when possible, and (d) use a lens of human diversity when writing their chapter. The Handbook begins with a multimethod assessment chapter by Robert Bornstein, followed by sections that contain chapters on the following topics: contemporary models of personality and psychopathology; psychometrics; diversity and inclusion (e.g., gender and gender identity, racial identity, and social justice); commonly used tests and personality assessment methods (e.g., PAIs, MMPIs, BASC, Rorschach); the assessment of three key personality and psychopathology dimensions (internalizing, externalizing, psychosis); and specific areas of assessment (e.g., suicide risk, violence risk, child custody, student threat assessment, high risk assessments). The final chapter discusses key challenges and needed improvements, such as requiring construct validity meta-analyses for all test scales, improving insurance reimbursement for assessments, and the emergence of new technologies in assessment"-- Provided by publisher.
