“This two-volume handbook is absolutely the most current, comprehensive, and authoritative volume available today on psychological and educational assessment of children. The Handbook is a thoroughly revised and updated version of the highly acclaimed first edition, published more than a decade ago. Kamphaus and Reynolds are, of course, two of the best-known scholars in the area of child assessment and have attracted a list of contributors that reads like a 'who's who' in the field. The contributors have all managed to write informative yet engaging chapters where theory is nicely integrated into critical discussions of research. Perhaps most important, the information presented in this volume easily translates into a 'take-home' message in that the chapters present clear implications for daily practice. The Handbook should be on the reading list of anyone, whether in the field of psychology or education, who works with children. If I were to add one set of works to my professional library this year, this would be the one.”

—George W. Hynd, EdD, College of Education, University of Georgia


“This handbook is a truly remarkable scholarly contribution to the fields of psychology and education. Reynolds and Kamphaus are leaders in the field who between them have a developed a number of the most frequently used psychological and educational tests, and the noted chapter authors all have impressive publication records as well. While the first edition was a stellar contribution, the volumes in the second edition have been improved with extensive updating and revising. A decade of exciting new research findings are carefully reviewed, and the latest professional developments incorporated. Encyclopedic in scope, these well-edited volumes cover virtually every type of psychological test that can be individually administered to a child. Additional material on the history of testing, research design, and ethical and diversity issues, among many other important topics, is also included. All handbooks strive to be comprehensive, but this one truly succeeds! All professionals involved in child assessment should have these volumes at their fingertips.”
