PSY640 Ashford Always on The Edge Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Case Discussion In your initial post, begin with a paragraph briefly summarizing the
main information about the case you selected. Evaluate and describe the
ethical and professional interpretation of any assessment information
presented in the case study. Devise an assessment battery for a
psychological evaluation that minimally includes a clinical interview,
mental status exam, intellectual assessment, observations of the client,
and at least two assessment instruments specific to the diagnostic
impressions (e.g., attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder,
post-traumatic stress disorder, autism spectrum disorder, etc.). The
assessment battery must include at least one approach to assessing your
client which is different from the assessments previously administered.
The assessment plan must be presented as a list of recommended
psychological tests and assessment procedures with a brief sentence
explaining the purpose of each test or procedure. Following the list of
tests and assessment procedures you recommend for your client, compare
the assessment instruments that fall within the same categories (e.g.,
intellectual or achievement), and debate the pros of cons of the
instruments and procedures you selected versus the instruments and
procedures reported by the referring professional.
