CSP 706 Personality Assessment

The focus of this course is on advanced psychological assessment and testing skills. Students learn how to administer, score, and interpret objective (structured) and projective personality tests that assess personality characteristics. Skills include the use and interpretation of a battery of psychological tests, the identification of relevant developmental and cultural factors that affect the assessment and testing process, and the integration of test and non-test data into a comprehensive, integrative report. Commonly used objective tests (e.g., MMPI-2, MCMI-III) and projective tests (e.g., Rorschach, TAT) will be covered in depth. Development of effective consultation and test interpretation feedback skills will be emphasized throughout.
