Beskrivning

An illustrative guide for using the MMPI-2-RF in forensic assessmentA primary aim of this text is to inform readers of the most common forensic applications of the instrument and, in doing so, provide a brief overview of the various psycho-legal issues addressed. Each type of forensic psychological evaluation considers challenges both general (e.g., the potential for response bias) and unique (e.g., retrospective assessment in criminal responsibility evaluations), including the impact such challenges have on the use of the MMPI-2-RF in these contexts. The major focus of the book is on MMPI-2-RF interpretation developed through specific case analyses involving the most common psycho-legal questions. Each chapter includes a case study with a full MMPI-2-RF profile illustrating the interpretation and integration of test data into clinical and diagnostic impressions and generating forensic opinions. A book-based exam offering Continuing Education (CE) credit is available for this publication. Visit upress.umn.edu/test-division for more information.

Recensioner i media

"The MMPI-2-RF brings many important advancements for use in the forensic specialty of psychology. To date, however, what has been lacking is how to apply these advances in a way that is responsive to the legal questions posed to the forensic psychologist. This book fills that gap. It has been carefully structured to provide both a general model of data interpretation and specific examples of how to use these data to answer specific forensic cases. It is a significant advancement in the literature of forensic psychological assessment."-Daniel L. Davis, Ph.D., ABPP, Board Certified Forensic Psychologist
