ABSTRACT

This chapter introduces a family of measures used in the evaluation of school-age children: the Personality Inventory for Children Second Edition (PIC-2), the Personality Inventory for Youth (PIY), and the Student Behavior Survey (SBS). These three questionnaires have been constructed to meet the assessment needs of youth by measuring multiple dimensions of problem behavior; collecting observations from parents, teachers, and youth; and providing standard scores based on contemporary national samples.
