Description
Addressing the growing need among child care providers to assess behavioural and emotional problems, this text gives a basis in theory and research and step-by-step instructions for successful assessment and diagnosis of childhood problems. The authors emphasise that assessment is not "test" driven, rather, it is "construct" driven.
