- Summary:
- Addresses the question of how accurate is the judgment of most clinicians. The cognitive processes of mental health professionals and the subtle biases that may influence their decisions are examined. This volume is essential reading for researchers who study the assessment process; mental health professionals and graduate students who wish to reduce bias and improve clinical judgment; and forensic psychologists who must defend the nature of their expertise.
