Hello
If i want to calculate IQ, DQ and SQ of my subject using Seguin form Board Test (SFBT), Developmental Screening Test (DST) and Vineland Social Maturity Scale (VSMS) respectively. Suppose age of my subject is 22 years who have been diagnosed with intellectual disability. Suppose his Mental age comes out to be 10 according to SFBT, his developmental age comes to be 9 according to DST and his Social age comes to be 12 according to SFBT. So what we will take in denominator for calculating his IQ,DQ,SQ? As these scales are only meant for not above age range of 15 so will we take it to be 15 ? or we will take the original chronological age of 25?
Thank You :)

Since mental age doesn't increase beyond 15 yrs as defined by Stern, chronological age would remain 16yrs. you may consider CA 16yrs. Syed Zafar Sultan Rizvi

Trying to find papers about how psychotherapists choose their therapeutic approach. I wonder if there is any studies, maybe correlational one that try to correlate therapists modality choices with any other variable.
I had no chance with a research database search.

The programmatic demands of many training programs are such that a trainee must simultaneously develop a didactic mastery of the varying theoretical orientations while also expanding their understanding of themselves as related to a particular theoretical preference. Particularly for a first year student, this is a potentially daunting task. One way of bridging this gap is to develop an informal tool which is lighthearted yet informative, and could potentially orient the student toward a clinical perspective without pigeonholing them. The authors of this study will present such a tool in the form of a "PlayBuzz" quiz, developed with the specific intent of elucidating preference for a specific theoretical orientation by assessing aspects of the individual's personality and worldview.

Many secondary source texts do not address the evolution of Alfred Adler's theory; that is, his movement from psychoanalysis to his later (1920 - 37) theory and practice ideas that integrate cognitive, constructivist, existential-humanistic, systemic, and psychodynamic perspectives. Much of contemporary psychology, psychotherapy, and counseling is replete with Adler's ideas although they use different nomenclature and almost never mention Alfred Adler.  Albert Ellis stated that "Adler, perhaps more than Freud, is true father of modern psychotherapy."  The existential psychiatrist, Henri Ellenberger, said that no author's work has been used more and acknowledged less than Alfred Adler.  The theory textbooks by Corey and Prochaska and Norcross echo the statements by Ellis and Ellenberger.

Hello, Richard and Béatrice. To answer the question baldly is "No," and I confess that I had not picked up subsequently on Adler's evolution. My excuse is that I hail from the Rogerian camp. Having gotten that out of the way, I am greatly intrigued by several aspects of your conversation. Neither in order nor exclusively: (1) The study and appreciation of the growth and development of the ideas of any great thinker is always enlightening. (2) The notion of power, rather than pleasure, being fundamental to the psychology of neurosis rings true if one considers human evolution (the archaeology of neurosis and the theoretical reconstruction of human development, as it were). (3) Which leaves me in a position. The link to Durbin 2004 <http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1G1-128445468.html> goes to an Oops page, regrettably.  I am left, as an unwashed and unlearned undergraduate, seeking bibliographical signposts. Where do you suggest I begin?
