Zusammenfassung:The strength of standardized multidimensional assessment instruments lies in their comprehensiveness, ease of cross-domain comparison, adaptability, reliability, & validity. The weakness of such instruments lies in their lengthiness & inability to address client eligibility & need for specific services or interventions. Thus, anyone considering a standardized multidimensional assessment instrument should closely review & compare the most established instruments. Here, several such assessments are discussed, & recent developments in multidimensional assessment taking place in state agencies & local programs are described. 6 References. M. Maguire
