The therapeutic value of a combined assessment

摘要

This paper looks at the value of combining an individual assessment of a child with a family assessment. It demonstrates how an individual assessment can release a child from the scapegoat role in the family. It also examines what happens when a child shows a different aspect of themselves when seen individually. The concept of projective identification is used to understand the clinical material.View full textDownload full textKeywordsassessment, scapegoat, projective identificationRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/02650531003741645
