内容説明

How can health professionals make assessment procedures more rigorous and practical? Are there basic scientific principles that can increase the utility of assessment? This volume addresses such issues and provides useful suggestions for improving the quality of rehabilitation assessment practice. Contributors first focus on the importance of theory in development and evaluation and then on predicted rehabilitation outcomes and psychometric adequacy of standardized rehabilitation assessment instruments. They then provide a provocative analysis of what motivates practitioners to select specific assessment instruments, who benefits most from rehabilitation assessment and what methods should be used to teach students about rehabilitation assessment. Finally, they synthesize key theoretical, measurement and professional issues.
