For example, an officer who was once a productive and respected member of a department now shows a distinct change in behavior or attitude that is confusing, frightening, or irritating to his or her supervisors and coworkers. Such an officer can have a profound effect on public safety as well as organizational effectiveness, productivity, and morale. Once a problem officer has been identified, a public safety department must exercise due diligence in order to protect itself from liability for the officer‘s actions, as well as to protect the officer, the public and other officers from potential harm.

  • Integrating Psychology with Psychopharmacology
    Special Section Integrating Psychology with Psychopharmacology Special Section Editor: Joseph J. Zielinski, PhD e will encounter diagnostic conundrums in our daily practice whether we know it or not. As psychologists, we need to answer for ourselves whether we are Wprepared to service patients who consult us with complex medical problems or medical problems presenting as “psychological” symptoms. The aging of our population will make this an increasing occurrence. Our psychiatrist colleagues sometimes overlook medical issues and ignore laboratory diagnostics, failing to inspire confidence from our patients. Primary care physicians readily admit that they are less than confident when pre- scribing psychotropic medications due to the necessary broadness of their training. Whether or not psychologists prescribe, and I think we should, we need appropriate train- ing in both physical diagnosis and psychotropics in order to help diagnose previously undi- agnosed medical illnesses. We also need to respond confidently when we encounter side effects in our patients already on medication. We have been living with a shared delusion that our patients do not have or do not develop medical illnesses while they are in psy- chotherapy with us. We know that the DSM-IV is more a medical classification than a diagnostic system. However, its diagnostic flow chart has great utility. Its diagnostic algorithm is an explicit, sequential consideration of the following diagnostic entities: medical illness, substance abuse, and mood disorders, before considering other diagnoses. Chance favors the pre- pared mind. Consider the following cases from the author’s own practice. A 50-year old office worker was suspected of substance abuse because of falling asleep after lunch.

As you will recall from my letter of September 24, 1998, sent by facsimile to you and Dr. Homansky, we are opposed to the public disclosure of Mr. Tyson's diagnoses and the complete clinical information contained in this report.

  • Guidelines for Physical and Psychological Evaluations
    Guidelines for Physical and Psychological Evaluations The purpose of this document is to inform licensees, applicants, petitioners, and the public about the Board’s requirements and procedures regarding physical and psychological evaluations (evaluations) under the Nursing Practice Act (the Occupations Code Chapter 301). These Guidelines are intended to ensure that: • the Board’s evaluation process is consistent and fair; • evaluation reports include all relevant and necessary information to enable informed decision-making; • evaluators appropriately explore and explain discrepancies; • evaluators adequately answer the Board's referral question(s); and • evaluators adhere to all applicable standards when performing evaluations. These Guidelines are not necessarily exhaustive. For additional information, please review the Nursing Practice Act, the Board’s rules, 22 Tex. Admin. Code Chapters 213 and 217, and the Board’s disciplinary policies, located on the Board’s website at www.bon.texas.gov. I. Authority to Require and Request Evaluations The Board is authorized under the Occupations Code §301.4521 to require an individual to submit to an evaluation if the Board has probable cause to believe that the individual is unable to practice nursing safely because of a physical or mental impairment or due to chemical dependency or the abuse of drugs or alcohol1. In this context, “probable cause” means that the Board has a reasonable, objective basis to believe that an individual is unable to safely or effectively practice nursing due to a psychological or medical condition or impairment. Further, an “objective basis” is one that is not merely speculative on the Board’s part, but derives from direct observation, credible third party report, or other reliable evidence.

PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS: THEIR USE AND MISUSE IN ILLINOIS CHILD ABUSE AND NEGLECT CASES INTRODUCTION Imagine that the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) takes custody of your children. They suspect you of child abuse, or neglect, or both. Your DCFS caseworker sends you to a psychologist for an evaluation. You talk with the psychologist, look at inkblots,1 and take a 550 question test.2 The results of this psychologi- cal evaluation partially determine whether DCFS recommends that your children be returned to your custody. The results of these tests might be admitted into evidence during various judicial proceedings. If DCFS recommends that the court terminate your parental rights, these results might be evidence at your trial. In Illinois child custody determinations, psychological testimony plays an increasingly important role. Recent literature has focused on this type of testimony in the divorce context, however, less has been written about the use of this testimony in child abuse and neglect pro- ceedings.

REGARDING PSYCHOLOGISTS TESTILY: LEGAL REGULATION OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS* DONALD N. BERSOFF** From its beginnings in World War I, the use of psychological tests has become so widespread that it is likely that every person in the United States has been affected in some way by the results of such tests.' Testing has become the means by which major decisions about people's lives are made in industry, hospitals, mental health clinics, the military, and, most pertinent here, the public schools. Tests themselves, by and large, are facially neutral. They do not inherently discriminate against those who take them and, undoubtedly, scores derived from tests have been used to admit, advance, and employ. For most people, however, test results have served as exclusionary mechanisms - to segregate, institutionalize, track, and deny access to desired goals.

  • Historical, Cultural, and Legal/Ethical Considerations
    CHAPTER 2 Historical, Cultural, and Legal/Ethical Considerations W e continue our broad overview of the fi eld of psychological testing and assessment with a look backward, the better to appreciate the historical context of the enterprise. We also present “food for thought” regarding cultural and legal/ethical matters. Consider this “food” only as an appetizer; material on historical, cultural, and legal/ethical consider- ations is interwoven where appropriate throughout this book. A Historical Perspective Antiquity to the Nineteenth Century It is believed that tests and testing programs fi rst came into being in China as early as 2200 b.c.e. (DuBois, 1966, 1970). Testing was instituted as a means of selecting who, of many applicants, would obtain government jobs. In a culture where one’s position in society had a long tradition of being determined solely by the family into which one was born, the fact that one could improve one’s lot in life by scoring high on an examination was a signifi cant step forward. In reality, passing the examinations required knowledge that usually came either from long hours of study or work with a tutor. Given those facts of life, it was likely that only the land-owning gentry could afford to have their children spend the time necessary to prepare for the tests. Still, tales emerged of some people who were able to vastly improve their lot in life by passing the state-sponsored examinations. What were the job applicants tested on? As might be expected, the content of the examination changed over time and with the cultural expectations of the day—as well as with the values of the ruling dynasty.
