A Companion to The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Substance Abuse Treatment, Fifth Edition
The Study Guide is made up of more than 375 questions divided into 53 individual quizzes of 5--10 questions each that correspond to the chapters in the Textbook. Questions are followed by an Answer Guide that references relevant text in the Textbook to allow quick access to needed information.
Each guideline recommends or suggests topics to include during an initial psychiatric evaluation. Findings from an expert opinion survey have also been taken into consideration in making recommendations or suggestions.
This is not a general text, then, but one focused on building competence and confidence in trauma-centered interventions, providing methods that should be readily and widely applicable to clinical practice.
