Roberts Apperception Test for Children (Roberts-2) <show description>

In evaluating children, it makes sense to look at more than academic ability and achievement. Social understanding, problem-solving skills, adaptability, sources of support, emotional adjustment, developmental issues--all of these things affect children’s functioning at school, at home, and in the community. And all are measured by the Roberts–2.

This revision of the popular Roberts Apperception Test for Children helps you understand the whole child. The Roberts–2 provides useful descriptive information, telling you how well the child reads social cues, recognizes and solves interpersonal problems, copes with difficulties, makes use of social and emotional resources, and much more. This information is invaluable to any professional who is initiating an academic or behavioral intervention.

The test focuses on the child’s social understanding as expressed in free narrative, reflecting both developmental and clinical concerns. The child’s stories are recorded and then scored--according to objective criteria--for the presence or absence of specific characteristics. Norms, grouped by age, are based on a sample of more than 1,000 children aged 6 through 18, from all four U.S. Census regions. The sample is representative in terms of gender, ethnicity, and parental education.

The Roberts–2 helps you put the pieces together by not only providing a more complete picture of the child prior to intervention but also reflecting change following intervention. Standardized on nonreferred children, this test is an ideal way to assess developmental change and situational crises in nonclinical children.

Roberts-2 Unlimited-Use Software Scoring CD

The unlimited-use computer program simplifies Roberts–2 scoring, allowing you to get the job done with greater speed and accuracy. This program helps you learn coding procedures more quickly at the outset and substantially reduces scoring time thereafter. In addition, it allows you to generate reports that provide a clear, accurate, and complete record of test results.

Roberts-2 Casebook

The Casebook was created to help clinicians integrate test scores and interpretation into school, special education, and clinical case reports.

Seventeen cases are described: 4 from normally developing children to help provide a grounded sense of typical variability and then 13 chosen to highlight issues for diagnostic categories that are among the most commonly evaluated in children and adolescents—Mild Mental Retardation, ADHD, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, Autistic Disorder, Asperger’s Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Oppositional-Defiant Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder, Conduct Disorder, Schizo-Affective Disorder, and Schizophrenia. Users can practice scoring cases (sample scoring by the author is provided), use profiles and interpretive discussion to better understand clinical issues in the areas treated, and learn how Roberts–2 results can inform evaluation reports and treatment plans.

Roberts–2 DVD Training Package

The Roberts–2 DVD Training Package provides everything you need to master the Roberts–2. Just watch the DVD and use the accompanying Workbook, Reference Materials, and Record Forms to practice coding, scoring, and interpretation.
