PY-8701: Understanding the Role of Tests and Measurements in Psychology

This course continues to train students on various psychometric constructs (e.g., empirical criterion keying, base rate interpretation) and introduces students to the applications of objective and other norm referenced tests to make clinical inferences. Students will develop a beginning level use of the most widely used objective personality tests: the current version of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) and Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory (MCMI). The MMPI will also be combined with the MCMI with the goal of contextualizing testing and subsequent report writing, within the broader professional activity of psychological assessment. The use of the MMPI and MCMI with clients from diverse backgrounds will also be studied.
