Assignment task: A 15-year-old Puerto Rican female
The adolescent was previously diagnosed with major depressive disorder and treated intermittently with supportive psychotherapy and antidepressants. Her more recent episodes related to her parents' marital problems and her academic/social difficulties at school. She was treated using cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT).
Describe at least three assessments in which you:
- Describe the assessment and its intended purpose.
- Determine the reliability and validity of the test when administered to varying populations.
- Analyze how it will help you to understand the client's presenting problems.
- Explain any cultural and ethical considerations of the test/administration.
- Consider how you would approach this case with a Christian worldview perspective and incorporate faith-based practices along with evidence-based practices.
