Provides a systematic approach to writing psychological reports foroptimal clarity, thoroughness, and impact A clinical report should have all the clarity and precision of amilitary dispatch. Unfortunately, as anyone who deals withpsychological reports knows, this is almost never the case.Extensive research has shown that with most psychologist's reports,there is a dangerously wide gap between author intent and readerinterpretation.

Psychological Reports, ThirdEdition, provides them with such an approach. The book begins with a theory-based analysis of report-writingproblems, which is then used to construct a framework foridentifying and correcting them.

A complete guide to writing effective reports for a variety ofcontexts * Updated to correspond to recent changes in the DSM-IV * Includes practice exercises that help readers buildreport-writing skills * Features sample reports representing a wide range ofapplications.
