[Anita Sego · Rating 4 out of 5]

Check out a copy before you buy it. All of the actual instruments are not in the book. For example, Marita McCabe's "Sexual Knowledge, Experience, Feelings, and Needs Scale" is included as a re-print of the article you can get for free online. This book is an excellent compilation of resources and will add depth to your overall knowledge but be careful if you are buying it to find a specific research instrument.

[Merritt Tully]

Great resource for counselors in need of standardized measures regarding sexuality.
