This is a description.

The evaluation is the most important task for therapists who work with sexual problems. Accurate assessment is the key to successful treatment, and many unnecessary therapy failures can be traced to inadequate evaluation procedures and the failure of the therapist to elicit pertinent information. Children’s roots in sexual problems are not enough for evaluating sexual disorders. Dr. Kaplan’s method of evaluation focuses on the patient’s or couple’s current sexual behavior and experience. The information required for understanding the dynamics of the problem and for formulating a rational treatment plan can be found in this.

The educational objectives are listed.

1. To demonstrate an interview technique for eliciting sensitive sexual information
