Depression- an elevation on the depression scale needs to be explored fully in order to differentiate between a situational or acute depression, which may be related to the individuals immediate circumstances, and a more chronic depression which would be more pathological. The latter is also associated with symptoms such as sleep disturbance, appetite loss, and negative view of oneself, ones environment, and ones future. Elevations on depression require some assessment of the individuals suicidal potential (Jackson, maclenan, lalonde, & thompso,1986) Thinking disorder- the items on this scale refer to symptoms of serious, cognitive dysfunctional, including auditory and visual sensory distortion, disorganization, loss of memory and dream-like states. Although this scale is intended to indicate difficulties I thought processes, such as psychotic thinking with some individuals elevations reflect the extent to which alcohol and drugs have affected cognition; such as individuals relate the items to periods when they have been under the

influence of alcohol and drugs. This is an important area that should be explored. Occasionally, individuals who endorse many items on this scale may be preoccupied with severe life stressesor chaotic family situations. It is essential for accurate differential diagnosis to discover the cause of an elevated score of this scale.
