Answer to Question 1

Answer:
I. Clinical disorders and other conditions that may be a focus of clinical attention.
II. Personality disorders and mental retardation
III. General medical conditions
IV. Psychological and environmental problems
V. Global assessment of functioning

Answer to Question 2

Answer:
1. Keep predictions about your clients in your personal notesnot in the formal records.
2. Draw a cognitive map of the clients presenting problems, other problems, behaviors, thoughts, history, and external situations so that you can visualize the interrelationship between these variables.
3. Challenge your case conceptualization. Also, encourage others such as your supervisor to challenge your conceptualization.
4. Generate a metaphor for your relationship with the client--for example, mentor, teacher, doctor, parent, pal? This metaphor offers insights about how the client relates to other people.
5. Make use of established psychological tests if they are available, the client is willing to take them, and you or another expert can interpret the results competently. Look for agreement or disagreement between test results and other information that you have.
6. Let your mind run free, sometimes. Select a client and do free association. Unstructured thought, like daydreaming, can bring forth surprising revelations.
7. Think about your own similarities to and differences from your client early and often. In particular, think about values, socioeconomics, and cultural background.
8. Put the very best construction possible on the clients thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Look for the clients areas of strength, resilience, and growth.
