3 out of 5 stars No scoring procedures but otherwise acceptable   March 3, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I expected that the book would have scoring procedures for the measures included in the book; however, I did not find any. These should be added to improve the utility of the measures included.


5 out of 5 stars Essential Handbook   January 15, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is an essential reference for anyone in the mental health field, both in research and/or clinical practice. The major scales are all covered in detail with full explanations. This is the latest edition that is fully up-to-date. Definitely worth the price.


4 out of 5 stars Value in the Handbook of Psychiatric Measures   March 15, 2006
 2 out of 4 found this review helpful

I purchased this book because of my studies in family therapy in particular family therapy with young clients who have a developing mental illness.
This book will assist in clarifying issues and lead to a speedy resolution of their problems, and assist families in helping their family member in the recovery process



1 out of 5 stars A Disappointment   November 14, 2003
 16 out of 16 found this review helpful

The book is good..... The CD that is included containing the actual tests, inventories and measures on it is nearly unacceptable as far as quality. The scanning job was poor and there is nothing that can be done to improve the quality or change the size. if I had seen it prior to purchase, I wouldn't have bought it. Additionally, when I contacted the publisher, the customer servifce representative was not even remotely interested in my concern or feedback.


4 out of 5 stars Excellent resource for health scales   May 22, 2003
 10 out of 10 found this review helpful

I was primarily interested in social health scales, and found this book to be an invaluable listing of many of the scales available, including reliability and validity information, and actual scale text on e-file with the attached CD. Not for psychiatrists only, for any health researcher interested in using tested scales.
