Assessment of Addictive Behaviors

Assessment of Addictive Behaviors provides cogent and comprehensive coverage of what is now known to be crucial in understanding and treatment of addiction; namely, assessment of the biological, psychological, and sociocultural contributors to the addictive process. This work offers an integrated biopsychosocial orientation that is as sensitive to the latest areas of addictions that are on the rise (e.g., gambling and sexual risk behavior) as it is to ethnocultural issues. Clinicians, upper-level undergraduate and graduate students, and researchers will find this text to be an invaluable resource in their quest to understand and evaluate the complexities of addictive processes.
