The 113 rating scales in this reference for clinicians and administrators are grouped by condition, such as anxiety, bipolar disorder, and impulsivity/aggression; sections also cover scales for children and the elderly. The second edition adds scales that apply to children and adolescents, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, eating disorders, domains of interpersonal functioning, and self-rated scales. Along with an overview and a reproduction of each scale, entries list general applications, selected psychometric properties, references, copyright, who typically administers the test, time to complete, and a representative study that makes use of the scale. The authors are associated with Case Western Reserve University. Annotation : 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
