Rationales for both correct and incorrect responses as well as test-taking tips help you critically analyze the question types. Plus, Clinical Judgment Case Studies and a 100-question exam at the end of the text help you assess your overall comprehension.

Increased my score significantly. "If you're in nursing school you know mental health has a lot of gray areas. It's not like pharm or Med surg where it's 'this is right, and this is wrong'. This book helped me SIGNIFICANTLY to understand WHY certain answers were correct/incorrect. It helped me to think critically a different way than I'm used to. I failed my first mental health test. The second & third test after that I got OVER 90%. I did all the questions in this book under the section we were learning; read through the notes ONCE. And that's IT. DEFINITELY get this book if you're struggling in mental health or afraid of what's to come in mental health. Best decision I've made in nursing school so far."--Chelsey S. Online Reviewer
Five Stars. "Made an A this semester in my mental health rotation."--Alana G., Online Reviewer
The rationales are the reason I love the books in the Davis Success series."Very helpful. Med-Surg Success was really helpful to me, so I decided to buy the mental health version for my current semester, and I am not disappointed."--Lynn C., Online Reviewer
