Reviews
Performance and symptom validity testing is an integral and critical part of the cognitive and neuropsychological assessment, but relatively little attention has been given to validity testing in the rehabilitation setting until now. This book builds from previous book chapters and articles published by these authors to provide a logical, one-stop reference. The information is accurate, up to date, and ready to implement in clinical practice. This is a superb book that would be well placed in the libraries of rehabilitation clinicians, as well as added to required reading for neuropsychology and rehabilitation psychology postdoctoral training programs. -- Christopher J Graver, PhD, ABPP-CN, Madigan Army Medical Center This work provides an important resource, not previously available, for rehabilitation psychologists. The authors address various forms of validity that can be impacted in assessment situations, and provide compelling and concrete examples of why validity assessment is not just a clinical neuropsychologist's tool. -- Beth K. Rush, PhD, ABPP, CN, RP, Mayo Clinic Florida Although publications regarding symptom and performance validity are common in neuropsychology the topic is rarely broached in rehabilitation focused literature. Drs. Carone and Bush recognized this gap and filled it with a concise and informative book that encourages rehabilitation oriented clinicians to assess and remain mindful of this broad issue in clinical practice. Most importantly the volume provides sage advice and evidence based methods for managing clinical dilemmas and treating individuals who, for a variety of reasons, may not be fully engaged in their recovery. -- Kirk Stucky, PSYD, ABPP, RP, CN, Hurley Medical Center, Flint, Michigan
