Peabody Treatment Progress Battery

Peabody Treatment Progress Battery

(PTPB); Bickman et al., 2010)

The Peabody Treatment Progress Battery (PTPB) is a set of 11 measures designed to assess mental health outcomes and clinical processes in youth ages 11-18. The information is collected from youth, caregivers, and clinicians, and the measures are appropriate for use as screening tools and for monitoring symptom changes over time (Riemer et al., 2012). The PTPB is intended for use in service settings such as individual outpatient, foster care, and in-home treatment (Bickman et al., 2010). The measures within the PTPB are brief, ranging from 2 to 26 items, and can be administered in just five to eight minutes (Bickman et al., 2010). The first six measures focus on treatment outcomes, while the latter five measures focus on treatment processes such as therapeutic alliance and treatment expectation (Riemer et al., 2012). The first six measures are also sensitive to symptom changes due to treatment (Riemer et al., 2012).

ADVOKATE: A Mnemonic Tool for the Assessment of Eyewitness Evidence

ADVOKATE: A Mnemonic Tool for Assessment of Eyewitness Evidence A tool for assessing eyewitness  ADVOKATE is a tool designed to assess eyewitness evidence and how much it is reliable. It requires the user to respond to several statements/questions. Forensic psychologists, police or investigative officer can do it. The mnemonic ADVOKATE stands for: A = amount of time under observation (event and act) D = distance from suspect V = visibility (night-day, lighting) O = obstruction to the view of the witness K = known or seen before when and where (suspect) A = any special reason for remembering the subject T = time-lapse (how long has it been since witness saw suspect) E = error or material discrepancy between the description given first or any subsequent accounts by a witness.  Working with suspects (college.police.uk)
