“…However, for the purposes of this chapter, it should be noted that a rehabilitation assessment is usually an integral component of a rehabilitation program for almost any form of disability (Elliot & Gramling, 1990). If other physical or psychological disabilities have a direct impact on cognitive or communicative processes, the psychological testing may help delineate the parameters of the individual's functioning (Barry & O'Leary, 1989;Rosenthal & Kolpan, 1986).…”

This chapter provides an overview of situations in which clinicians conduct assessments with disabled people. As such, it will be necessarily superficial in discussing arenas (such as neuropsychology or rehabilitation assessment) that have demanded significant literatures to fully elaborate. Rather, references to these areas are offered as examples of clinical assessment of people with disabilities so that assessment processes may be compared and unique issues may be explored.I will begin this chapter with some definitions. Then I will assess two broad areas, situations in which the client's-patient's disability is not the focus of the assessment and contexts in which disability assessment is the center of the evaluation process.' In this second part of the chapter, I willThe author wishes to thank Polly Stipke for her diligent work in preparing drafts of this chapter.

However, the term client will be used for purposes of uniformity.

“…Comprehensive guidelines for consultation efficacy and competence have been developed (see Chapter 1, this volume). As is evident in reviewing these guidelines, rehabilitation psychology consultation requires a broad spectrum of technical skills and abilities in assessment, behavioral management, family systems, and psychology of disability; however, going beyond these technical skills, rehabilitation psychologists play a crucial role as interdisciplinary team facilitators (Barry & O'Leary, 1989). Before addressing the specific skill sets that constitute the rehabilitation psychology perspective (Stiers et al, 2012), we first consider the role of the rehabilitation psychologist in working with the interdisciplinary team.…”
