<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Many professionals who conduct psychological assessments supervise graduate students and other professionals as well. However, there is very little training and/or guidance on appropriate, effective, or even likely beneficial methods of supervision. This guide provides guidance on supervising assessment and testing. Currently, it is the only book that focuses on psychological assessment and testing supervision. Every chapter after the first will conform to this structure, with sections on: Models of Assessment Supervision/ Considerations Specific to X/ Supervision Competence / Diversity Issues/ Supervisory Relationship/ Professionalism/ Assessment/Evaluation/Feedback/ Professional Competence Problems/ Ethical, Legal, and Regulatory Considerations/"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>The only pocket-size reference on supervising </b><b>psychological testing and </b><b>assessment</b></p> <p>In 2014, the American Psychological Association (APA) adopted a set of guidelines for clinical supervision for health service psychology. While technically covered by these guidelines, supervising clinical psychological assessment includes additional tasks (such as ensuring accurate administration, scoring, and interpretation of tests) and tensions. Supervisors must often instruct supervisees on the data-integration process--which can involve more direct teaching than standard clinical supervision--while encompassing the same interpersonal, therapeutic, and less structured guiding aspects as psychotherapy supervision. It is increasingly common to view clinical supervision in the assessment process and supervision of psychotherapy as two significantly different tasks. Surprisingly, there is very little training and guidance available on appropriate, effective, and beneficial methods of psychological assessment supervision.</p> <p><i>Essentials of Psychological Assessment Supervision </i>seeks to remedy the lack of literature in this area, offering guidance on supervising psychological testing and assessment.
