Theories of Counseling and Psychotherapy

Abstract

New RESEARCH IN CLINICAL ASSESSMENTEdited by Edwin I. Megargee Designed as an advanced text and as an aid to the professional clinician, this volume presents recent research studies from twenty American, Canadian, and British journals, covering the issues and problems of assessment in the mid-1960's. The first part of the book focuses on general problems of assessment research; the second on the validity of specific assessment techniques. The final section deals with the integration of clinical data in assessment.

Culture and Psychotherapy: Review and Practical Guidelines

However, Patterson (1966) establishes several critical elements which are mandated in theory formulation in general, and the definition of terms and concepts specifically. Acknowleging this, one must form an operational definition in a manner that "relates the concepts to observational data and thus make possible the study of the concepts in research or experimentation" (Patterson, 1966, p. 4).…”
