Using the Rorschach Performance Assessment System® (R-PAS®) de Joni L. Mihura

Using the Rorschach Performance Assessment System® (R-PAS®)

Editat de Joni L. Mihura, Gregory J. Meyer
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 ian 2018

În peisajul evaluării psihologice clinice, tranziția către metode bazate pe dovezi este esențială. Acolo unde lucrarea The Rorschach in Multimethod Forensic Assessment se concentrează pe integrarea testului Rorschach cu alte instrumente precum MMPI-2 în contexte strict judiciare, Using the Rorschach Performance Assessment System® (R-PAS®) propune o schimbare de paradigmă metodologică aplicabilă în multiple setări. Suntem de părere că acest volum reprezintă documentul fundamental pentru specialiștii care doresc să adopte sistemul R-PAS, succesorul modern al sistemului Comprehensive dezvoltat de John Exner. Apreciem rigoarea cu care editorii Joni L. Mihura și Gregory J. Meyer au structurat acest ghid practic, eliminând ambiguitățile de administrare care au marcat utilizarea tradițională a planșelor Rorschach.

Poziționarea cărții în contextul operei editorilor este revelatoare; expertiza lui Joni L. Mihura, vizibilă și în The Oxford Handbook of Personality and Psychopathology Assessment, se traduce aici într-o abordare clinică precisă a psihopatologiei. Structura volumului urmărește o progresie logică: prima parte stabilește bazele teoretice și principiile de interpretare, punând accent pe normele internaționale, în timp ce secțiunile următoare detaliază aplicațiile clinice prin studii de caz complexe. Găsim în această carte analize detaliate despre detectarea timpurie a psihozei la adolescenți, evaluarea riscului de suicid și dinamica alianței terapeutice. Stilul de redactare este unul clinic și tehnic, oferind detalii despre codare și interpretare care transformă un instrument proiectiv într-o metodă de evaluare a performanței cu validitate incrementală demonstrată.

Despre autor

Joni L. Mihura este o figură centrală în psihologia clinică contemporană, fiind profesor și cercetător recunoscut pentru contribuțiile sale la standardizarea metodelor de evaluare a personalității. Expertiza sa este reflectată în coordonarea unor lucrări de referință precum The Oxford Handbook of Personality and Psychopathology Assessment. Alături de Gregory J. Meyer, Mihura a jucat un rol esențial în dezvoltarea sistemului R-PAS, un efort colectiv de a aduce testul Rorschach la standardele psihometrice moderne. Activitatea sa academică și clinică se concentrează pe validarea empirică a instrumentelor proiective și pe aplicarea acestora în diagnosticul diferențial al psihopatologiei severe.

Descriere scurtă

From codevelopers of the Rorschach Performance Assessment System (R-PAS), this essential casebook illustrates the utility of R-PAS for addressing a wide range of common referral questions with adults, children, and adolescents. Compelling case examples from respected experts cover clinical issues (such as assessing psychosis, personality disorders, and suicidality); forensic issues (such as insanity and violence risk assessments, child custody proceedings, and domestic violence); and use in neuropsychological, educational, and other settings. Each tightly edited chapter details R-PAS administration, coding, and interpretation. Designed to replace the widely used Comprehensive System developed by John Exner, R-PAS has a stronger empirical foundation, is accurately normed for international use, is easier to learn and use, and reduces ambiguities in administration and coding, among other improvements.

Recenzii

“An impressive body of research supports the use of R-PAS, one of the most important instruments available to personality assessors. Edited by leading lights in the field, this much-needed volume brings together well-established personality assessment experts to provide rich examples of R-PAS interpretation. There is something for everyone, including chapters on clinical, forensic, school, neuropsychological, pre-employment, and medical assessment contexts."--Christopher J. Hopwood, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of California, Davis

“This book will meet the needs of clinicians just beginning to explore R-PAS as well as more advanced users who have longed for in-depth case studies. The opening chapters clearly explain the philosophy and empirical basis of R-PAS. The clients chosen for the case illustrations come from a wide variety of settings and have very different presenting problems, but all are fascinating. A number of the cases utilize collaborative/therapeutic assessment, illustrating how R-PAS data can be turned into helpful feedback for clients and referring professionals."--Stephen E. Finn, PhD, Founder, Center for Therapeutic Assessment, Austin, Texas

"An excellent resource for both novice and experienced assessment psychologists, this volume brilliantly illustrates the use of R-PAS. The international contributors--all experts in different assessment domains--set a high standard for thorough case analysis. It is of particular relevance that a good proportion of the cases concern adolescents and young adults; this is the age period when symptoms of mental disorder often first appear and differential diagnosis is highly challenging. The value of performance-based assessment using R-PAS for answering complex diagnostic questions is lucidly demonstrated throughout this book."--Corine de Ruiter, PhD, Professor of Forensic Psychology, Maastricht University, the Netherlands

“A valuable resource for practitioners and researchers alike, this remarkable book should be on every clinician’s shelf. The volume illustrates how R-PAS data can be used to understand patients’ underlying dynamics and expressed behaviors and to enhance clinical and forensic decision making. Authorities in the field cover diverse assessment challenges, from domestic violence and suicidality to pre-employment screening and child custody evaluation. Skillfully blending empirical evidence with clinical wisdom, the chapters make R-PAS data come alive."--Robert F. Bornstein, PhD, Derner Institute of Advanced Psychological Studies, Adelphi University
-This is a good introduction to the R-PAS, a new interpretive system for the Rorschach Inkblot Test, with good psychometric properties. It contains clinical examples and protocols, which are extremely helpful. The R-PAS is a good addition to a neuropsychological protocol for both children and adults. *****!--Doody's Review Service, 3/2/2018
