The SPECTRA provides a quick hierarchical assessment of adult psychopathology. It can be used to evaluate individuals in a variety of clinical settings, such as inpatient and outpatient clinics, hospitals, schools, and forensic settings.
Features and benefits

Measures 12 clinically important constructs (depression, anxiety, social anxiety, post-traumatic stress, alcohol problems, severe aggression, antisocial behavior, drug problems, psychosis, paranoid ideation, manic activation, and grandiose ideation).
Constructs are organized into three higher-order psychopathology spectra (Internalizing, Externalizing, and Reality-Impairing).
These spectra scores combine to provide a General Psychopathology Index (GPI).
Maps on to DSM-5™ conditions and links assessment findings to quantitative model research literature.

Test structure
Features 96 self-report items that can be completed and scored via carbonless form, plus three supplemental scales, one validity scale, and one response style indicator.
Technical information

Normative data are based on a sample of 1,062 individuals ranging in age from 18 to 91 years representative of the U.S. population.
Older adult, college student, and mild and moderate clinical samples were collected.
SPECTRA scales correlate highly with the PID-5, PDQ, SBQ-R, PAI, NEO-FFI-3, BRIEF-A, and more.
