The BRIEF-2 Interpretive Guide is a straightforward, reader-friendly book designed to assist school psychologists as they assess, plan interventions, and monitor students with executive dysfunction.

It provides a step-by-step guide to interpreting scores, and a parallel sentence-by-sentence guide to help write findings in reports, using language that is concise, accurate and clear to parents and teachers.

Fundamental steps to interpreting scores are illustrated, and optional interpretive steps such as base rates and classification statistics are introduced.  Two case examples are included, which demonstrate screening, basic and advanced interpretation. Effective executive function intervention models and programs are described.
