DOMAIN 1: LICENSING & REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS (15 Questions)
Question 1
Dr. Sarah Mitchell, a licensed psychologist in Ohio for 8 years, wishes to relocate her
practice to Kentucky. She holds a doctoral degree in clinical psychology from an
APA-accredited program, has passed the EPPP, and has no disciplinary history. She
wants to obtain a Kentucky license through endorsement. According to KRS Chapter
319 and 201 KAR regulations, which of the following is TRUE regarding her application
for licensure by endorsement?
A. She must complete an additional 1,800 hours of supervised postdoctoral experience
in Kentucky before being eligible for endorsement.
B. She is automatically eligible for full licensure without additional examination
requirements because she has been licensed in good standing for more than 5 years in
another jurisdiction.
,C. She must pass the Kentucky Jurisprudence Examination and meet all current
Kentucky licensure requirements, including verification of her credentials, but may be
exempt from the EPPP if her original EPPP score meets Kentucky's current passing
standard.
D. She must establish residency in Kentucky for at least 6 months before submitting her
application for licensure by endorsement.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Under KRS 319.050 and 201 KAR 26:065, applicants for licensure by
endorsement must meet all current Kentucky requirements for licensure, including
passing the Kentucky Jurisprudence Examination. While the EPPP requirement may be
satisfied if the applicant's original passing score meets Kentucky's current standard (or
is higher), the jurisprudence exam is Kentucky-specific and mandatory for all applicants
regardless of years licensed elsewhere. Option A is incorrect because supervised
experience completed in another jurisdiction typically counts toward endorsement
requirements; additional hours are not required solely because of relocation. Option B is
incorrect because no automatic licensure exists—Kentucky requires all endorsement
applicants to pass the jurisprudence exam and meet current standards. Option D is
incorrect because Kentucky does not impose a residency requirement prior to
application for licensure by endorsement. The Board evaluates credentials based on
equivalency to Kentucky standards, not residency status.
Question 2
,Dr. James Patterson applies for a Licensed Psychological Practitioner (LPP) credential
in Kentucky. He holds a master's degree in psychology and has completed the required
supervised experience. According to KRS 319.032 and 201 KAR 26:075, which of the
following represents a LIMITATION on the LPP scope of practice compared to a
Licensed Psychologist (LP)?
A. An LPP is prohibited from conducting any psychological testing or assessment.
B. An LPP cannot practice independently and must be supervised by a licensed
psychologist for all professional activities.
C. An LPP is restricted from providing health services related to the prevention of
behavioral and mental health disorders.
D. An LPP is limited to practicing under the supervision of a licensed psychologist when
providing health services and cannot practice independently in health service settings.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: KRS 319.032 explicitly limits the LPP scope of practice by requiring
supervision by a licensed psychologist when providing "health services," which include
prevention, assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of behavioral and mental health
disorders. LPPs may practice independently in non-health-service settings (such as
industrial-organizational psychology or research), but health services require
supervision. Option A is incorrect because LPPs can conduct psychological testing and
assessment under supervision. Option B is incorrect because it
overgeneralizes—supervision is required for health services, not "all professional
, activities." Option C is incorrect because LPPs CAN provide health services related to
prevention, but only under supervision; they are not categorically restricted from this
domain. The critical distinction is the supervision requirement for health services versus
independent practice in non-clinical domains.
Question 3
The Kentucky Board of Examiners of Psychology consists of how many members, and
what is the composition requirement regarding professional versus public members, as
specified in KRS 319.140?
A. 5 members: 3 licensed psychologists and 2 public members
B. 7 members: 5 licensed psychologists and 2 public members
C. 9 members: 6 licensed psychologists and 3 public members
D. 11 members: 8 licensed psychologists and 3 public members
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: KRS 319.140 establishes a 7-member Board consisting of 5 licensed
psychologists and 2 public members who are not licensed psychologists and have no
immediate family members who are licensed psychologists. Public members represent
consumer interests and ensure public participation in regulatory decisions. Option A is
incorrect because it understates the Board size. Options C and D are incorrect because
