About this Unit
This is an in-depth introduction to psychological assessment including behavioural checklists, structured interviews, psychometric tests and inventories. It recognises that this will be many students' first contact with psychological assessment and the unit covers the entirety of psychological assessment. Nevertheless, the range of assessment methods is given an added dimension by using forensic case studies and related materials.
