Christopher J. Hopwood, Ph.D., is a Professor of Psychology at the University of California, Davis. Mark H. Waugh, Ph.D., ABPP, is Staff Psychologist at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Adjunct Clinical and Teaching Faculty at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville; and in private practice in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.

"This remarkable sequel to Wiggins’ (2003) multimethod case study extends the Madeline G. story over a 20-year period in a manner that is edifying and compelling. With a new set of expert collaborators employing updated tests and advances in assessment paradigms, Hopwood and Waugh’s text delivers vital applied learning, illustrating the power of a longitudinal frame of personality assessment that reveals trait consistency, age-related drifts, and new adaptations. It is ultimately person-centered and empathic. This is an essential read for personality assessors and therapists alike."Radhika Krishnamurthy, Psy.D., ABAP, Clinical Psychology Professor, Florida Institute of Technology'Drs. Hopwood and Waugh have assembled a remarkable revisiting of the classic 2003 work by Wiggins, viewing the contemporary status of the original case of Madeline through the lens of different paradigms of personality assessment. Providing both continuity with the original as well as insight into advances in recent years, this volume is an assessment tour de force that should be required reading for anyone wishing to understand of the state of the art in the field.'Leslie C. Morey, Ph.D., George T. and Gladys H. Abell Professor of Psychology, Texas A&M University"Personality Assessment Paradigms and Methods: A Collaborative Reassessment of Madeline G, edited by luminaries Christopher Hopwood and Mark Waugh, demonstrates the power of personality assessment to reveal the inner workings of a person with a depth that is almost startling. This book presents a mosaic of carefully hewn pieces, perspectives yielded from the application of five paradigms for examining psychological assessment data, which, when melded together reveal Madeline in her uniqueness and complexity. I cannot imagine a more captivating way for students to learn about psychological assessment or for more senior assessors to expand their interpretive repertoires. With chapters written by of roster of our most distinguished, talented personality assessors Madeline G. 2.0 is a triumph."Virginia Brabender, PhD, ABPP (cl), Distinguished University Professor (2017-2020), Institute for Graduate Clinical Psychology, Widener University"Destined to become a classic in 21st century personality assessment, Hopwood and Waugh’s Personality Assessment Paradigms and Methods should be on every clinician’s bookshelf.

Students and seasoned professionals like will benefit from this incisive, engaging book."Robert F. Bornstein, PhD, Professor of Psychology, Adelphi University"With the reassessment of Madeline G almost two decades later, this book re-invigorates Wiggins’ seminal text on personality assessment. It provides an updated, comprehensive overview of how different personality assessment paradigms answer three important questions: "What is personality?" "How do we measure it?" and "What should we measure?" The captivating Madeline G brings each paradigm to life. This is a must-read for practitioners and trainees and belongs on the syllabus of every course for the next generation of personality assessors."Nicole M.
