The Social Cognition and Object Relations Scale-Global Rating Method (SCORS-G)

"This volume is truly a comprehensive guide to the SCORS-G rating method that includes a complete review of the research to date, extremely clear discussion of scoring guidelines, extensive practice examples that are incredibly useful in training clinicians at all levels of experience and a direct link with clinical applications. Stein and Slavin-Mulford provide several impressive chapters on how to use the information from this measure in an integrative manner during the intake and psychological assessment process, as well as how to inform the patient-therapist interaction, clinical interventions and supervisory process. If you are interested in evaluating the complexity and depth offered by narrative material in relation to applied clinical issues with an evidenced-based assessment tool this book is a must!"

"In an era when self-report measures dominate psychology, Stein and Slavin-Mulford's compelling review of the narrative-based SCORS-G is a breath of fresh air. Blending empirical evidence with clinical wisdom, the authors provide a step-by-step guide to this important assessment tool that will be useful to graduate students and early career psychologists as well as experienced clinicians and clinical researchers."
