Provide an example for two of four instruments: an individualized rating scale (IRS), a rapid assessment instrument (RAI or a standardized scale), an observational measure that you could use to measure change in this particular problem/issue, or a client log that could be used to monitor change in this particular problem/issue. Provide a discussion of strengths and weaknesses of these measures with regard to reliability, validity, and reactivity, and a brief rationale why you chose each of these measures. Attach a copy of both measures. 5. Measurement plan. Indicate who will fill out the measure and discuss your rationale for this choice. How often will the client(s) be filling out the measure(s)? • When and under what situation(s) will the client be filling out the measure(s)? • What steps have you taken to try to increase the consistency of data collection? • Length: 1-1.5 single-spaced pages (12-font) (body of text) plus References and Appendixes. Include measurement instruments in Appendix. For citations in the text you can use Footnotes, Endnotes, Numbered or JAMA format. Please, use SCID interview or any other standardized tools to assess your client's problems. Use Treatment Planners to develop treatment objectives and Systematic Reviews, Meta-analyses or other sources to review interventions. Final paper: Evaluation Findings In the final paper provide a brief description of the client (or group) focusing primarily on the results of the evaluation study conducted with this client or group.
