Pressestimmen

""Straight Talk about Psychological Testing for Kids," by Harvard psychologists Ellen Braaten, PhD, and Gretchen Felopulos, PhD, would have saved me many sleepless nights. It covers just about everything parents need to know about testing....The book takes a user-friendly 'who, what, when, how' approach, with many case studies. Odds are, you'll find your own questions answered, as I did."--Terry Matlen, MSW, mother of a child with special needs
"Psychological testing is an invaluable resource in helping to determine what may be problematic with your child. This book is an extraordinary reference for parents and professionals in truly understanding when to use, and how to interpret, the various psychological tests available. Drs. Braaten and Felopulos provide an exceptional service by distilling complex information into a very readable and pragmatic guide."--Timothy E. Wilens, MD, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School
"At last! A superb book for the lay person about psychological testing. It is highly informative, extremely interesting, and it is really fun to read. Braaten and Felopulos have written a totally engrossing book on a topic that is usually deadly dull. Their secret is to give testing a human face and describe how it points the way to solutions for many kinds of human suffering. They write with clarity, but also with heart. They are clear, without oversimplifying. They cover a huge amount of ground, but allow the reader to enjoy the ride. This is the best book of its kind that I have ever seen."--Edward M. Hallowell, MD, author of "The Childhood Roots of Adult Happiness" and coauthor of "Driven to Distraction"
"For parents wrestling with the question of how best to help a child struggling with school or with social or behavioral problems, this book is an absolute godsend. Clarifying what psychological testing is and what it can tell parents about their child, Drs. Braaten and Felopulos manage not only to demystify the

Kurzbeschreibung

This authoritative guide gives parents the inside scoop on haw psychological testing works and how to use testing to get the best help for their child. Two Harvard experts spell out the entire process of testing for dyslexia, ADHD, math and reading disorders, Asperger syndrome, depression, anxiety, and other common childhood problems. Parents learn what different tests actually measure and how to "crack the code" of jargon-filled reports, numerical scores, and educational recommendations. Also discussed are key qualifications to look for in evaluators, what kinds of testing schools are required to provide, and when to consider paying for private testing instead. Comprehensive and accessible, the book includes numerous resources, FAQs, and examples, and provides tips for making testing less stressful for children.

This book is a parents best friend! 17. Dezember 2003
Von Ein Kunde - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
I picked up "Straight Talk about Psychological Testing for Kids" with the intention of giving it as a gift to a friend with an ADHD child. As I flipped its pages I was stunned with the amount of information and insight it contained regarding children that didn't seem challenging at all. From gifted children to teenagers that have become withdrawn or disinterested. Many suffer needlessly without an evaluation at some point in their lives. This is not to say that Braaten and Felopulos are pushing testing on anybody. In a very friendly way they discuss many childhood disorders, and offer up the options, costs, pros and cons of each. They explain how to use testing to get the best help for the child, and as a result, will provide the ultimate gift to their readers-HOPE.

User-friendly. Invaluable information 25. Februar 2006
Von A. Robinson - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
The Editorial reviews give you enough information about what's in this book. Let me just add that as a mom of a special needs daughter, I thought the book was fabulous. I recommended that my local library get it, and they did.

If you're one of the thousands of families with a special need child, this book can help de-mystify the psychological referral and testing process. What test do they use? What do each measure? And who are all these different psychological-professionals?

It's written in an easy to read manner, and offers a strong focus on how to negotiate the world of psychological tests- either within the school system or privately.

If you're not sure - borrow a copy from the library. You'll end up purchasing one for yourself.

This was an excellent book. It was the first time I read a book that related performance in various IQ and other subtests to various disorders in children. It was eye opening. I would love to talk to the authors to get more insight into my child's specific circumstance.
