Q

A

norm: compare an examinee’s performance to the performance of a specified group of participants (norms)

criterion: used to assess where an examinee stands on a particular criterion, or domain of scale, status, or functioning.

A

extension of CTT

Identifies sources of measurement error, separates the influence of each source, estimates the individual sources of measurement error

Q

multitrait-multimethod matrix

A

way of examining construct validity: compare your test with others that are designed to measure the same and different things - do you get the expected correlation matrix?

Study These Flashcards
A

there are 6 dimensions of vocational interest - uses hexagon

Realistic
Investigative
Artistic
Social
Enterprising
Conventional

21
Q

Self-directed search

Study These Flashcards
A

SDS

self-report questionnaire that is scored and interpreted by the individual.

yields score profile with top three domains, and compare those top three to different occupations and fields

22
Q

Hiltonsmith and Keller 1983’s idea:
IO psych

Study These Flashcards
A

framework for organizing data collected in ecological (person setting) assessment:
1) setting appearance and contents
2) setting operation
3) setting opportunities

23
Q

what are “controls” in the context of an FBA?

Study These Flashcards
A

things the individual is trying to use their behavior to control

24
Q

assessment center

Study These Flashcards
A

in IO psych, used to evaluate bxs and skills specific to a job’s content

a setting where a standardized evaluation of behavior based on multiple inputs can occur

multiple assessors observe and record bx, classify bx, and rate

25
10 key components for an evaluation process to be considered an assessment measure
1) systematic analysis to determine job-related behavioral constructs 2) behavioral classification 3) multiple assessment center components 4) linkages btwn bx constructs and assessment center components 5) simulations 6) assessors 7) assessor training 8) recording bx and scoring 9) data integration 10) standardization
26
8 broad factors proposed by Carroll
1) fluid intelligence 2) crystallized intelligence 3) general memory and learning 4) visual perception 5) auditory perception 6) retrieval capacity 7) cognitive speediness 8) processing speed
27
Stanford Binet age range
2-85
28
Wechsler scales age ranges
WPPSI: 2:6-7:7 WISC: 6-16 WAIS: 16 -89
29
5 domains assessed in NAB
Attention Language Memory Spatial EF
30
Strong Vocational Interest Inventory
yields scores in 4 scales: 1) general occupational themes 2) basic interest scales 3) personal style scales 4) occupational scales (measures 6 RIASEC categories)
31
Kuder Occupational Interest Survey
self-report measure of vocational interest. Measures the similarity between a person's responses adn the avg interests of people actually employed in a specific job 4 domains: occuaptional scales college major vocational interest dependability estimates
32
Campbell Interest and Skill Survey
yields scores in: Occupational Orientation (like Holland's interests) Basic Occupational
33
Dusky vs US
supreme court decision stating that a person must have a rational and factual understanding of the proceedings against him
34
American Law Institute Test for determining NGBRI
1) person lacks capacity to understand criminality of his bx or to conform to the law 2) mental disease or defect does NOT include abnormality manifested by repeated criminalor otherwise antisocial conduct
35
M'Naghten rule
DRAWN disease of the mind defect in Reasoning lacked Ability at time fo the crime to konw Wrongfulness or understand Nature and quality defendant has to show insanity
36
mens rea
Knowledge of wrongdoing of a crime related to argument of diminished capacity
37
Rogers Criminal Responsibility Assessment Scales
developed to facilitate evals of diminished capacity/mens rea
38
2 types of violence/aggression assessments
1. retrospective 2. prospective (risk): assess dangerousnessh
39
how to assess for aggression risk
1. review case history 2. clinical interview with pt 3. interviews with family, friends, other ppl **attend to riskf actors: hx aggressive bx and violence hx substance abuse hx psychosis hs psych/personality disorders (associated with violence) attend to affective state and interpersonal style re: emotions
40
Hare Psychopathy Checklist Revised
differentiate psychopathy traits from antisocial PD 3 factors: 1a and 1b: related to Narcissistic PD 2a and 2B; related to Antisocial PD and BPD
41
event sampling vs interval recording
event sampling: how many times a bx happens interval recordings: recording Y/N for time periods
42
Kuder-Richardson formula
developed to assess internal consistency reliability in measures with dichotomous choices
43
what is the difference between schizophreniform disorder and schizophrenia and brief psychotic disorder?
schizophreniform disorder: < 6 mo, doesnt require decline in functioning schizophrenia: at least 6 mo, incl 1 mo of active-phase sxs BPD: more than 1 day, less than 1 month
44
most common negative sxs in schizophrenia
diminished emotional expression avolition
45
what is schizoaffective disorder
mood episode and active-phase sxs of schizophrenia occur together and were preceded or are followed by at least 2 weeks of delusions/hallucinations without prominent mood sxs
46
what precludes a diagnosis of delusional disorder?
previously meeting criteria A of schizophrenia (2+ of delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech, disorg/catatonic bx, neg sxs for 1 mo)
47
dx criteria for a brief psychotic disorder
A. 1+ of: delusions, hallucinations, disorg. speech, grossly disorg or catatonic bx B. 1 day < x < 1 mo C. not better explained by MDE or bipolar disorder with psychotic features or another psychotic disorder
