About this Unit
This is a modular practice unit providing a thorough grounding in the three main sources of psychological assessment: structured interviews, behavioural assessment and tests. It is a companion unit to the second placement in which psychological assessment is a major skills component. Most students gained some familiarity with testing and assessment at an undergraduate level or in their subsequent employment and this unit has some structural flexibility to permit students to spend more time on unfamiliar avenues of assessment. All students must demonstrate competence in a series of proficiency tests before any credit is granted.
