Psychological evaluations in child maltreatment cases
Description
A psychological evaluation can provide empirical data and expert objective opinion to
aid in answering questions about child abuse. However, too often psychological evaluations are not requested when they would be useful, are aimed at answering the wrong questions, or are too general to answer specific questions. The aim of this packet is to assist you in knowing when psychological evaluations can be useful and in making the most of psychological evaluations.
