Throughout the world, Spanish is spoken by more than 559 million people, with about 41 million in the U.S. Serving this growing population is critical for your practice. The PAI Spanish: Revised Translation enables you to assess personality and psychopathology among Spanish-speaking adults, helping these individuals get the mental health support, monitoring, and treatment they need.

Intended for use by Spanish-speaking adults in the U.S. who come from many countries and speak different dialects. Concerted effort was made to ensure generalizability among Spanish speakers of varied nationalities and backgrounds, and the present translation will be useful for most Spanish speakers, including those of Mexican, South American, Central American, Cuban, and Puerto Rican background.
