Book Introduction
The first chapter of this book, like the first edition, emphasizes the basic concepts of psychological assessment, as well as the individual considerations that must be made in various psychological assessment situations, and the ethical aspects of assessment.
In terms of overall composition, it includes well-known basic psychological tests as well as psychological evaluations for children and adolescents, and neuropsychological evaluations to help understand the relationship between the brain and behavior, areas of psychological evaluation that have recently been gaining importance.


Wechsler Intelligence Scale, WISC-V, which is currently undergoing the most active revision among intelligence tests, was newly organized with a focus on real-life cases.
The latter part of this book describes how to write psychological evaluation reports, focusing on various cases using the latest psychological evaluation techniques.
The final chapter includes new content on evidence-based psychological assessment (EBPA), which can be considered a new trend in the field of psychological assessment, and the latest trends in psychological assessment used in legal settings such as adoptive parents and adult guardians.
