37
Factors to consider when evaluating the appropriateness of a psychological test
1. examiner qualifications 2. examinee characteristics 3. test characteristics
38
test characteristics
1. reliability and validity 2. standardization 3. types of scores (norm-criterion or self-referenced)
39
standardization
1. scores collected at different times and places are comparable 2. has been administered under standard conditions to a representative sample for purpose of establishing norms
40
types of scores
1. norm referenced 2. criterion-referenced 3. self-referenced
41
norm referenced scores
permit comparisons between an examinees test performance and the performance of individuals in the norm group e.g., percentile rank and standard scores
42
criterion-referenced scores
aka domain referenced scores and content referenced scores permit interpreting an examinees test performance in terms of what the examinee can do or knows with regard to a clearly defined content domain. e.g., percent - may be compared to a cutoff percentage
43
self-referenced scores
provided by ipsative scales - can compare your scores in one domain to your scores in another domain
44
types of psychological assessment
1. behavioral assessment 2. dynamic assessment 3. computer-assisted assessment
45
behavioral assessment
focuses on overt and covert behaviors that occur in specific circumstances e.g., functional behavioral assessent
46
dynamic assessment
Vygotsky interactive approach and deliberate deviation from standardized testing procedures to obtain additional info about the examinee and to determine if the examinee is likely to benefit from assistance or instruction educational assessment and personality and social fxning

62
racial/cultural differences between examinee and examiner
no consistent effect of a match or mismatch rapport and examiner's attitude may be more critical to test performance
63
Spearman's two-factor theory
general intellectual factor (g). performance on any cognitive task depends on g plus one or more specific factors (s) unique to the task
64
Horn & Cattell's theory of intelligence
crystallized v fluid
65
Crystallized intelligence
acquired knowledge and skills, is affected by educational and cultural experiences, and includes reading and numerical skills and factual knowledge
66
Fluid intelligence
does not depend on specific instruction is culture-free enables an individual to solve novel problems and perceive relations and similarities
67
Three-stratum theory of intelligence
Carroll Stratum III is g stratum II consists of 8 broad abilities including fluid, crystallized, general memory and learning, Stratum I consists of specific abilities that are each linked to one of the second stratum abilities . e.g., crystallized intelligence is linked to language development, comprehension, spelling, communication
68
Cattell-Horn-Carroll Theory
McGrew developed on basis of empirical research serves as framework for KABC-II and WJ IV distinguishes bt 10 broad-stratum level abilities and over 70 narrow -stratum abilities that are each linked to one of the broad stratum abilities g does not contribute to psychoeducational assessment practice
69
Convergent and Divergent Thinking
Guilford structure-of-intellect model distinguishes between convergent and divergent thinking convergent: rational, logical reasoning and involves the use of logical judgement and consideration of facts to derive the correct solution divergent: nonlogical processes and requires creativityy and flexibility to derive multiple solutions

7
85

60
86
fluid intelligence peaks in ___ and then___
late adolescence | declines
87
declines in fluid intelligence are attributed to
declines in working memory and processing speed
88
Seattle Longitudinal Study
combined cross-sectional and longitudinal design (cross-sequential) cross sectional design is more likely to find early age-related declines in IQ because it is more vulnerable to cohort effects longitudinal design shows- intelligence remains stable or slightly increases over time until about age 60. only perceptual speed declined before 60
89
factors related to cognitive decline
1. many items and tasks emphasize speed of information processing 2. physical health - cardiovascular functioning - which impacts information processing speed and other cognitive functions 4. disuse - can be reversible
90
differences in intelligence d/t gender
no diff on avg. performance differences are small and may be declining: females do better on some measures of verbal ability, esp during school years, and are less likely to have a reading disability males outperform females on measures of certain spatial and math skills - spatial skills showing the largest gender gap differences d/t biology and also environment (opportunity)
91
differences in IQ d/t ethnicity and race
Whites outperform AA by one SD on IQ and achievement tests; gap has narrows somewhat since 70s
92
2 types of IQ test bias
1. slope bias | 2. intercept bias
93
Slope bias
differential validity -- validity coefficients for a predictor differ for different groups
94
intercept bias
unfairness -- validity coefficients and criterion performance for different groups are the same but their mean scores on the predictor differ. so the predictor consistently over- or under- predicts performance on the criterion for members of one of the groups

Scoring the Rorschach based on
1. location - whole or detail? 2. determinants - what determined the response? color? 3. form quality - how similar perception is to actual shape 4. content - human, animal, nature 5. popularity - how often a response is elicited
195

2 most common NP batteries
1. halstead-reitan | 2. Luria-Nebraska
198
Halstead-Reitan (H-R) NP Battery
used to detect presence of brain damage and determine severity and possible location 15+ Halstead Impairment Index (HII) ranges from 0 to 1: 0 to .2 suggests normal fxn; 0.3 to 0.4 mild impairment; .5 to .7 moderate impairment; 0.8 to 1 severe impairment
