6110C11 SHSpec-65 Problems Intensive Assessment The PC assessment form is of vast use to the auditor to know what is going on is the PC's life. If you have a new PC -- new to scientology, do one. Even if the PC is just new to you, do one. It gives the PC some confidence to know that his auditor knows something about him. It should be done by the auditor who is going to audit that PC. This will relieve the PC's sneaking suspicion that the auditor knows nothing about him. If the PC knows about something, it isn't aberrative, so this is a negative assessment, since whatever is known there isn't aberrative. Number of times divorced is an important one, especially if it doesn't correlate with number of times married, since you've then got big withholds to get off. Educational level is another area for withholds. Pcs can be ashamed of how little or how much they've had. Jobs, accidents, illnesses: this starts to get into an interesting zone: engrams he never mentions. Watch out for restimulation in these areas, if you ask any details about them, This can throw the PC right into engrams, The auditor gets data while doing this form that tempts him to take things up with the PC, but don't do it! Acknowledge and go on without creating an ARC break. Don't let the PC talk his havingness down, in the accidents and illnesses area. If the PC is very chatty, give him an R-factor beforehand that you only want to know briefly about each thing. The some applies to the present physical condition. We're very interested in whether there are any withheld physical conditions or worries about health they haven't told anyone or diseases they'd hate to have anyone know about. Pump the PC; get all the withholds off, because this is a serious withhold on the case. On mental treatment, be equally sure to get off any withholds. It would be not OK to be getting other treatment, physical or mental, at the same time as auditing. The usual cause of high tone arms on pcs who leave with low TA and come back with high TA is some withhold about their physical condition or concurrent mental treatment or some bug on the subject of the mind. Get the withholds off on the subject or you won't be his auditor, because he won't be willing to talk to you. If you do get them off, you'll be his auditor because you know things about him no one else knows. [Details on how to find changes the PC has had in his life and running them.]
