Beskrivning
In this volume, Kathleen Nader has compiled an articulate and comprehensive guide to the complex process of assessment in youth and adolescent trauma. There are many issues that are important to evaluating children and adolescents, and it is increasingly clear that reliance on just one type of assessment does not provide the most accurate results. From history to recent advances, this book covers a wide range of methods and measures for assessing trauma, including case examples to illustrate the integration of these different facets. Altogether, the broad scope and inclusive depth of this work make it an essential addition to the field of trauma assessment.

Recensioner i media

"This book is brilliant and fills a gap in the growing scientific literature on trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder. A pioneer in the study of PTSD in children, Dr. Nader has written a classic book on understanding how trauma impacts children, adolescents and the developmental process. A must read for clinicians, social workers and researchers." - John P. Wilson, Professor of Psychology, Cleveland State University, USA"An extensive, almost encyclopedic review of the etiology, phenomenology, and measurement of posttraumatic symptoms in children. The careful treatment of culture, gender, attachment, and biology, all in the context of detailed trauma assessment, makes this book a major standout. Very highly recommended to child-adolescent clinicians and researchers!" - John Briere, Associate Professor of Psychiatry, University of Southern California; Co-Director, MCAVIC-USC Child and Adolescent Trauma Program, National Child Traumatic Stress Network, USA"This very comprehensive and much needed book will be treasured by clinicians who treat traumatized children and youth and by students who are attempting to master the intricacies of the assessment process. It promises to become an essential resource in the clinical treatment of traumatized children and youth." - Nancy Boyd Webb, Distinguished Professor of Social Work, Fordham University, USA"This book is a classic. If you have any interest at all in assessing children and adolescents’ reactions to traumatic events, you must read this book." - Kenneth E. Fletcher, Associate Professor of Psychiatry, Family Medicine and Community Health, and the Graduate School of Nursing, University of Massachusetts Medical School, USA
