Psychological Assessment Summary
L (Lie) Scale - Summary-Low ______ detects underreporting of symptoms | attempt to fake good
K (Defensiveness/Correction) - Summary-Low ______ detects underreporting of symptoms| attempt to
fake good
F (Infrequency) - Summary-High _____ detects overreporting of symptoms | attempt to fake bad
(NEO-PI-3) NEO Personality Inventory-3 - Summary-provides scores on the five major domains of
personality (neuroticism, extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and openness to experience)
and the six facets that
thematic apperception testTAT - Summary-Most scoring and interpretation systems for the ____ rely on
Murray's concepts of needs (internal determinants of behavior), press (environmental determinants of
behavior), and thema (interactions between needs and press).
Fagan Test of Intelligence - Summary-is a measure of selective attention to novel stimuli, and research
has found that performance on the Fagan Test is a good predictor of IQ scores in childhood, adolescence,
and early adulthood.
Leiter-3 - Summary-· is a measure of cognitive abilities for individuals ages 3 to 75+.
· Because of its nonverbal format, it's useful for non-English speakers and individuals with language
impairments.
· measure of fluid intelligence and includes subtests that measure attention, memory, visualization, and
reasoning.
Myers-briggs type indicator (mbti) - Summary-is based on Jung's personality typology and provides
information on four bipolar personality dimensions: introversion-extraversion (I, E), sensing-intuition (S,
N), thinking-feeling (T, F), and judging-perceiving (J, P).
Fluid intelligence
, Crystallized intelligence - Summary-______ begins to decline at about 30 to 40 years of age, while
_______ continues to increase and peaks at 60 to 70 years of age.
Ppvt-5 (peabody picture vocabulary test) - Summary-is used to assess the receptive vocabulary of
individuals ages 2 years to 90+ years. It can be used with individuals who have autism spectrum disorder,
symptoms of psychosis, or cerebral palsy or other physical disability.
Raven's progressive matrices (rpm) - Summary-measures of fluid intelligence and are considered to be
culture-reduced because they do not use language and performance does not depend on specific
cultural or academic learning. There are three RPM tests: Standard Progressive Matrices, Colored
Progressive Matrices, and Advanced Progressive Matrices.
Wonderlic personnel test - revised (wpt-r) - Summary-is a test of general mental ability that's used to
predict job success.
Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children, Second Edition (KABC-II) - Summary-provides five scale scores
(Simultaneous, Sequential, Planning, Learning, and Knowledge) and two global scores. The global score
based on the Cattell-Horn-Carroll model of cognitive abilities includes performance on measures of
acquired (crystallized) knowledge, while the global score based on the Luria neuropsychological
processing model does not include performance on measures of acquired knowledge.
Ipsative scores - Summary-_____ are also known as intraindividual scores and provide information on
the examinee's relative (rather than absolute) strengths with regard to the interests or other
characteristic measured by the test.
Bender-Gestalt II - Summary-does not provide detailed information about the location or effects of brain
damage, it's considered useful as a screening test for brain damage, especially right parietal lobe
damage.
Glasgow Coma Scale - Summary-assess level of consciousness, the patient is rated on his/her best eye
opening, verbal, and motor responses. The total rating ranges from 3 (deep coma or brain death) to 15
(normal).
Wisconsin Card Sorting Test - Summary-is sensitive to frontal lobe damage and is used to assess abstract
thinking and perseveration and to help distinguish between frontal lobe and non-frontal lobe lesions.
L (Lie) Scale - Summary-Low ______ detects underreporting of symptoms | attempt to fake good
