ABSTRACT

This chapter contains a follow-up assessment of Carl, who was presented in Chapter 3 at age 15. The assessment was conducted when Carl contacted me ten years after I saw him in psychotherapy and when the original psychological assessment was conducted. I saw him briefly at age 25 to talk about a current problem he wanted to discuss and to gather a history of the course of his life during the intervening ten years. Shortly afterwards, I asked Carl if he would agree to repeat the testing, and thus I conducted a personality assessment over two visits six to eight weeks after he consulted with me.
