Discrepancies are often found between selfreports and reports by others regarding psychopathology. Both the person being assessed and various informants may contribute crucial data concerning a person’s functioning. Comprehensive assessment requires data from multiple informants. Such data can be easily obtained with parallel self-report and collateral-report forms. The multiinformant data can be compared, aggregated, and used in manyways. Optimal use ofmulti-source data is essential for clinical assessment and for discovering causes and cures of psychopathology.
