My research investigation was conducted on two assessments that can be used in a counseling field and for counseling purposes. One of the assessments was the Millon Clinical Multiaxis Inventory, also known as the MCMI. The second evaluation was about the strategies or tools implemented by schools for mental health counseling centers in schools. These two assessments interested me, primarily those used to work with schools in the area of ​​mental health counseling and how effective they can be with their students and families. Millon Clinical Multiaxial InventoryThe Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory is an assessment of a real mock questionnaire constructed to rate psychiatric patients on twenty clinical scales that are combined into basic personality patterns, pathological personality disorders, and clinical symptom syndromes (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, from the (DSM-III) of the American Psychiatric Association (1980) and somewhat problematic. Widiger et al. (1985) and Millon (1985) argued that, although many of the inventory items in the MCMI assessment do not relate to DSM-III standards for personality disorders, this does not mean that the test is useless in calculating diagnoses of the DSM-III. .One study explored the joint validity of four MCMI measures for the diagnosis of mood disorders: cycloid, dysthymic, hypomania, and psychotic depression scales. Millon (1969), pointed out that the Cycloid scale was taken into consideration for its theoretical background in the idea……middle of paper……strings and other assessments done in the past, and many others Although research has been conducted comparing and seek to validate other assessment methods used in consulting environments, it all depends on how and what you use it for and your best critique of it. For me, working with young people, in a school context 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 teams of people dedicated, committed and hardworking. staff members to talk and get to know their students, to identify them and their potential and difficulties and to connect with their families because there is nothing more precious and reliable than involving a student's family every time there is a mental health problem, an academic issue or a general health problem, positive or negative.
