among others. Professionals need an authoritative source on

Like all the volumes in the Essentials of Psychological
Assessment series, this book is designed to help busy mental health
professionals, and those in training, quickly acquire the knowledge

assessment instruments. Each concise chapter features numerous
callout boxes highlighting key concepts, bulleted points, and

WMS®-IV Assessment now includes four new subtests and a
revised index structure. The authors also offer expert assessment
of the test's relative strengths and weaknesses, valuable advice on
its clinical applications, and several illuminating case
studies.
