My research investigation was carried out on two assessments which can be used in the field of counseling and for counseling purposes. One of the assessments was the Millon Multiaxial Clinical Inventory, also known as MCMI. The second evaluation focused on strategies or tools that schools put into practice for school-based mental health counseling centers. I was interested in these two assessments, primarily those used to work with schools in the area of ​​mental health counseling and their effectiveness with their students and families. Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory The Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory is an assessment of a real and mock questionnaire constructed to assess psychiatric patients on twenty clinical scales that are combined into basic personality patterns, pathological personality disorders and syndromes of clinical symptoms (Millon, 1982). Although this assessment has been used for diagnostic purposes, authors such as McCabe (1984), Morey, Waugh, and Blashfield (1985), have considered the MCMI to be very similar to that of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, ( DSM-III) of the American Psychiatric Association (1980) and somewhat problematic. Widiger et al. (1985) and Millon (1985) argued that although many items on the MCMI Assessment Inventory do not relate to DSM-III standards for personality disorders, this does not mean that the test is useless for calculating DSM-III diagnoses. .A study explored the conjunction validity of four MCMI measures for the diagnosis of mood disorders: cycloid scale, dysthymic, hypomania and psychotic depression. Millon (1969), pointed out that the cycloid scale was taken into consideration because of its theoretical basis in the idea...... middle of paper ...... strings and other assessments made in the past , and many others Although research has been done to compare and attempt to validate other assessment methods used in counseling settings, it all depends on how you use them and why you use them use, as well as your best review about it. For me, working with youth, in a school setting and coming from a Latino perspective, I like the strategies used in school settings for mental health services, health services and those used in general by dedicated teams , compromised and hardworking. staff members to talk and learn about their own students, identify them and their potentials and challenges, and connect with their families, because there is nothing more valuable and more reliable than involving a student's family every time there is a mental health issue, academic issue, or general health issue, positive or negative.
