The Peabody Treatment Progress Battery (PTPB) provides a cohesive, comprehensive, and evidence-based approach to enhancing mental health services for youths aged 11-18 years. The battery includes eleven clinically relevant measures of key mental health outcomes and clinical processes. The measures, especially with their repeated use, offer clinicians systematic feedback on their clients, both individually and in relation to other clients served. Such feedback provides rich clinical material for treatment planning, particularly for clients who are not improving as expected. As an integrated set of brief, reliable, and valid instruments, the PTPB battery can be administered efficiently and at low cost.

The PTPB is just one component of a feedback system known as Contextualized Feedback Systems® (CFS™), developed by the Center for Evaluation and Program Improvement (CEPI) of Vanderbilt University’s Peabody College. (Bickman, Riemer, Breda, & Kelley, 2006). CFS™, described in Chapter 15 of this manual, includes webbased training, data collection, and report functions.
