Acknowledgments

There are many colleagues and friends who have offered constructive suggestions in the preparation of this handbook. Don Gottfredson, Michael Hindelang, and Marvin Shaw served as an advisory committee and their ideas appear in many ways throughout this handbook. We are grateful for their assistance and collab­oration.

Bruce Sales has been extraordinarily helpful; as editor of the Plenum Per­spective in Law and Psychology series, he has worked with us, adding consistency, sense, and style to the text.

Ten years ago, in the very early stages of this effort, Linda Jacobson and Jon Baughman joined in some of the early scale reviews. Since then, Glenda Williamson invested heavily of her time and effort and performed the yeoperson's work in searching out materials. Robin Ingall aided in the MMPI and CPI literature review.

The Department of Psychology at the University of Alabama graciously extended much support during development of this project. In particular, we appreciate the secretarial and collegial help of Gwendolyn Thomas, Leona John­son, and Marjie Hall.

We also would like to extend our appreciation to Saleem Shah, Thomas Lalley, and their colleagues at the Center for Studies in Crime and Delinquency in the National Institute of Mental Health. The Center provided the financial support necessary for the implementation of this project and the staff helped shape early drafts of our ideas in many positive ways. For their scholarly perspectives and kind assistance, we are much indebted.

We are most grateful to the individuals and organizations that are referenced below, who have granted us permission to use their scales in this volume.
