Special emphasis is given to test use requirements, test taker rights, and matching tests with specific needs or questions. Theoretical and applied material will be integrated so as to provide students with the rationale for and a hands-on feel of the assessment process. As appropriate, students will have the opportunity to observe and/or informally administer psychological testing instruments. Prerequisites: STAT 120 and PSYC 331. (Fall 2020)
