Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

The focus of clinical assessment is to obtain a detailed understanding of the individual child or family as a unique entity (e.g., Felicia and her family), referred to as idiographic case formulation.. This is in contrast to a nomothetic formulation, which emphasizes broad general inferences that apply to large groups of individuals (e.g., children with a depressive disorder).
