PY-8161: Methods of Psych Assessment: Personality & Emotional Functioning

This is the first course of a year-long sequence that introduces students to foundational practices in psychological assessment for diagnostic or treatment purposes. The emphasis in the fall semester is on the assessment of personality and emotional functioning, primarily through the use of the Rorschach Inkblot test. Students will develop beginning competence in the administration, scoring, and interpretation of the Rorschach Performance Assessment System (R-PAS) as well as some other projective techniques used to explore the complexities of personality (e.g., the Thematic Apperception Test, the Roberts-2, etc.). This course will also cover foundational skills in the process of psychological assessment, including answering referral questions, synthesizing information from multiple sources, developing accessible and individualized recommendations, providing feedback to clients, and basic report writing skills. Students will complete a basic R-PAS report write-up as the culminating assignment of the term.
