Assessment and diversity
Valuable for multicultural issues because we try to look at the unique individual by incorporating their unique context
We use nomothetic means, but that must be tempered by an idiographic picture that captures a unique individual in all their complexity
Collaborative/Therapeutic Assessment
Start with questions about a persons problem in living—meeting them where they are
We have the client teach us about their world
Requires integration of data from a range of sources (history, self-report, performance based tests, etc.)
- use appropriate norms
- look to the person underneath cultural distinctions
- a person may report what might seem psychotic behaviors (talking to god) and the Rorschach can help us truly see if there is psychosis or if it a cultural manifestation
Therapeutic Assessment is made to collaborate with client
Collaboration refines understanding to fit the client
Testing provides hard evidence that can be used to present as inconsistent with the clients’ trauma conclusions
- Extended Inquire
- Assessment Intervention Session
- Summary/Discussion Session
