Psychologists throughout the world are being asked to assess an increasingly diverse clientele: immigrants, refugees, second and third generations still influenced by different cultures and languages, and indigenous peoples now moving toward the mainstream. Most are ill-equipped by training and experience to understand, assess, and treat such clients competently and ethically.IN this book, Richard H. Dana proposes a new model of multicultural assessment practice and points directions for future training an d research. He presents general, culture-specific, and step-by-step instrument-specific guidelines for the use of the standard armamentarium.
