'Those of us conducting interviews for the purpose of diagnosis and intervention planning will find this text an excellent resourceThe complexities and dynamics common to conducting interviews with children, parents, and teachers are discussed in a clear and comprehensive manner. Dr. McConaughy has provided a concise, user-friendly, research-based text that will prove an invaluable guide for school-based and clinical practitioners. The reproducible worksheets, interview outlines, illustrative case examples, and chapters on assessing risks for suicide and violence are wonderful additions.' - Michael J.

'Clinical interviewing is the most frequently used assessment technique by practitioners in the field, yet it is also one of the most under-researched areas of psychological assessment. In the current context of mandated evidence-based practices, this book fills a crucial need by offering empirically based approaches to clinical interviewing of children and adolescents. This comprehensive text offers practical techniques for interviewing students, parents, and teachers, while addressing such issues as school functioning, antisocial behavior, emotional problems, substance abuse, and suicidality. A 'must' for professionals interested in learning cutting-edge child and adolescent assessment techniques.' - William R. Jenson, PhD, Department of Educational Psychology, University of Utah, USA
