Personality Assessment in Managed Health Care : Using the MMPI-2 in Treatment Planning

In this book a highly respected group of contributors, from academia, managed care, and full-time clinical practice, point to the importance of psychological assessment in the era of managed care. Butcher and his colleagues argue that psychological assessment plays an indispensable role in managed care both because it is an essential tool for evaluating the effectiveness of therapy and because of its significant contributions to the structuring and shortening of the process of therapy.
