Widely recognized as an authoritative resource, this book has been
revised and updated with the latest research and techniques, including
new material on telehealth services. Guidelines are provided for
conducting thorough, developmentally informed interviews with K-12
students--and their parents and teachers--for multimethod assessment and
intervention planning. Extensive case examples illustrate how to elicit
information about school functioning, peer relations, emotional and
behavioral difficulties, family situations, and adolescent concerns. Two
guest authors have contributed chapters on suicide and violence risk
assessments. In a convenient large-size format, the book includes over a
dozen reproducible interviewing tools; purchasers get access to a
webpage where they can download and print the reproducible materials.
