| abnormal psychology ronald j comer 10th edition: Handbook of Clinical Rating Scales and Assessment in Psychiatry and Mental Health Lee Baer, Mark A. Blais, 2009-10-03 Psychiatric clinicians should use rating scales and questionnaires often, for they not only facilitate targeted diagnoses and treatment; they also facilitate links to empirical literature and systematize the entire process of management. Clinically oriented and highly practical, the Handbook of Clinical Rating Scales and Assessment in Psychiatry and Mental Health is an ideal tool for the busy psychiatrist, clinical psychologist, family physician, or social worker. In this ground-breaking text, leading researchers provide reviews of the most commonly used outcome and screening measures for the major psychiatric diagnoses and treatment scenarios. The full range of psychiatric disorders are covered in brief but thorough chapters, each of which provides a concise review of measurement issues related to the relevant condition, along with recommendations on which dimensions to measure – and when. The Handbook also includes ready-to-photocopy versions of the most popular, valid, and reliable scales and checklists, along with scoring keys and links to websites containing on-line versions. Moreover, the Handbook describes well known, structured, diagnostic interviews and the specialized training requirements for each. It also includes details of popular psychological tests (such as neuropsychological, personality, and projective tests), along with practical guidelines on when to request psychological testing, how to discuss the case with the assessment consultant and how to integrate information from the final testing report into treatment. Focused and immensely useful, the Handbook of Clinical Rating Scales and Assessment in Psychiatry and Mental Health is an invaluable resource for all clinicians who care for patients with psychiatric disorders. |

| abnormal psychology ronald j comer 10th edition: Introducing Social Psychology Colin Fraser, Brendan Burchell, 2001 This book offers an accessible and broadly conceived introduction to social psychology. Written in a lucid and lively style, it assumes no prior knowledge of the field, and is the ideal textbook to get students thinking about the subject. The volume covers the main issues of social psychology - as well as many classic studies - such as self and personality, interpersonal relations, language and communication, altruism and aggression, group processes, attitudes, and intergroup relations. What sets this book apart is its coverage of less orthodox topics which are often neglected in introductions of this kind. These areas include emotions, social and moral development, social representations, health and illness, employment and unemployment, and the implications of these fields for social policy. The result is an unusually rich and wide-ranging presentation of social psychology, drawing together a deliberately varied range of methodology and theory. The currently dominant cognitive and psychological approach to social psychology receives systematic consideration in a number of chapters, but its focus on individuals and face-to-face interaction is continually related to broader social concerns and contexts. This is achieved through the use of cross-cultural and historical comparisons, together with an awareness of the contributions that can be made by related social sciences. The authors aim to show that social psychology illuminates the whole of social life, including everyday issues faced by all of us.

| abnormal psychology ronald j comer 10th edition: Jacob Boehme and the Spiritual Roots of Psychotherapy Glenn J. McCullough, 2025-04-14 Jacob Boehme (1574-1624) was a wildly creative mystical writer whose extraordinary revelations of God, the soul, and the universe have been consigned to obscurity. In this original book, Glenn J. McCullough argues that Boehme is the ultimate source of a key modern movement: psychotherapy. Bringing clarity to Boehme’s revelations, McCullough shows how he anticipates the pioneering concepts of Sigmund Freud and C.G. Jung, including their ideas of the unconscious mind and its remarkable potentials. At the centre of Boehme’s thought is the figure of Sophia—divine Wisdom—and her seven drives, which guide the soul on a journey of expanded awareness and rebirth. While Boehme has been dismissed as an esoteric outsider, McCullough situates him in the mainstream Western tradition of Augustine and Luther, while highlighting his unique approach to the ecstatic dream-world of Wisdom. |
