Child and Adolescent Personality Assessments

The Inventory of Suicide Orientation-30 (ISO-30) assessment provides an overall suicide risk classification based on measurements of hopelessness and suicide ideation.

Unlike many other instruments developed for adults and adapted for adolescents, the MACI assessment was specifically created to address the unique concerns, pressures and situations facing teens. This dedicated tool, recently enhanced by the addition of Grossman Facet Scales, helps assess personality patterns as well as self-reported concerns and clinical symptoms. Brief and easy to administer, the MACI test can assist practitioners in constructing treatment plans customized to individual needs and help them guide troubled youth toward healthier, more authentic lives.

The Millon Adolescent Personality Inventory (MAPI) instrument is normed on both normal adolescents and adolescent patients. The inventory outlines 3 distinct scale dimensions: personality styles, expressed concerns, and behavioral patterns.

An empirically based measure of adolescent psychopathology, the MMPI-A test contains adolescent-specific scales, and other unique features designed to make the instrument especially appropriate for today’s youth. Offering reports tailored to particular settings, the MMPI-A test helps provide relevant information to aid in problem identification, diagnosis, and treatment planning for youth (ages 14–18).

A comprehensive tool specifically designed to help you quickly and accurately identify psychological problems in children ages 9–12: the Millon™ Pre-Adolescent Clinical Inventory (M-PACI™) test. Unlike instruments that focus on a single clinical area such as anxiety or depression, the M-PACI assessment provides an integrated view that synthesizes the child's emerging personality styles and clinical syndromes, helping clinicians detect early signs of Axis I and Axis II disorders. Effective and efficient, the M-PACI test can help you arrange early intervention on difficulties that may keep students from making the most of their preteen years—and these, if left undetected, can lead to bigger heartaches down the road.
