Assessment for Intervention Summary

Assessment for Intervention: A Problem-Solving Approach by Rachel Brown-Chidsey (University of Southern Maine, United States)

Problem-solving assessment is an essential component of multi-tiered systems of support such as response to intervention (RTI) and positive behavioral interventions and supports (PBIS). This authoritative work provides a complete guide to implementing a wide range of problem-solving assessment methods: functional behavioral assessment, interviews, classroom observations, curriculum-based measurement, rating scales, and cognitive instruments. Prominent experts demonstrate the key role of assessment throughout the process of supporting at-risk students, from identifying academic and behavioral problems to planning and monitoring interventions. Several chapters include reproducible forms that can be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8 1/2 x 11 size.

Assessment for Intervention Reviews

A fantastic book--a 'must have' for school-based professionals, especially those working in an RTI framework. It integrates state-of-the-art research and practice in problem-solving
assessment. This is an ideal resource for graduate courses related to data-based decision making, consultation, problem solving, and multi-tiered intervention.--Pamela Fenning, PhD, School Psychology Program, Loyola University Chicago

The impressive second edition of Assessment for Intervention: A Problem-Solving Approach provides strong chapters that promote evidence-based, problem-solving assessment methods that will enhance the academic learning and social-emotional skills of students. The book will assist in expanding the capacity of schools to provide effective, multi-tiered services and programs and create opportunities for school professionals, such as school psychologists, teachers, and administrators, to use advanced methods of problem solving and data-based decision making.--from the Foreword by Patti L. Harrison, PhD, NCSP, School Psychology Program, University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa

Comprehensive and timely. The book reviews the empirical bases and psychometric properties of a wide variety of assessment tools and techniques and outlines methods for assessing the effectiveness of school-based interventions. Numerous case studies and examples clearly illustrate the concepts presented. Annotated 'suggested reading' lists enable interested readers to delve more deeply into each of the main topics. All education professionals using MTSS approaches will find this book valuable. It is well suited as a text for graduate courses on assessment and intervention for students with academic, social, emotional, and behavioral needs.--Marie C. McGrath, PhD, Department of Graduate Psychology, Immaculata University

This is an exceptional text that covers the most relevant issues and contemporary methods inproblem-solvingassessment. I use this book in my graduate courses and recommend it to practitioners.--Theodore J. Christ, PhD, Department of Educational Psychology, University of Minnesota
