The IPGI was developed to assess parents'/guardians' attitudes and behaviors towards their children. The IPGI is useful for counseling/treatment evaluations, child assessment/ custody determinations, etc.

TESTIMONIAL

I've used several other tests for custody evaluations and have found that the Inwald Parent/Guardian Inventory (IPGI) is the most valuable and insightful of the instruments currently available on the market. In conducting over 25 custody evaluations for probate court, the IPGI was especially helpful in identifying how each parent approaches his/her child and how the child's behavioral patterns and positive/negative characteristics are viewed by each parent. None of the other tests reached the level of the IPGI in providing information about the relationship between parents and their children. A most valuable tool!
