摘要
The International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) is the World Health Organization's classification of human functioning and disability. The ICF is addressed as an important development in healthcare and of specific importance for informing assessment in forensic psychology. The utility of the conceptual framework of the ICF to inform case conceptualization in psychological injury and law is explored. Future prospects for the ICF in psychological healthcare are reviewed, including the need for more research on the intersection of the ICF and the psychological-legal context. © 2009 Springer Science + Business Media, LLC.
