Introduction to Psychological Assessment in the South African context 6e is an introductory text on measuring and assessing human behaviour within a complex multicultural environment. It offers a practical guide to the development of culturally appropriate measures and the application of assessment measures, as well as the interpretation and reporting of results.
The book provides advice with regard to assessing young children and individuals with disabilities, and also discusses the various contexts in which psychological measures are used, including education, counselling, the psycholegal domain, and research. Critical thinking exercises related to typical assessment scenarios develop students’ reasoning skills. Real-life South African examples and case studies illustrate the theory and allow students to apply psychological assessment principles in practice. The book is suitable for senior undergraduate students taking modules in psychological assessment as part of a BA, BSocSci or BPsych degree, as well as postgraduate students studying psychology, industrial psychology or educational psychology.
The text follows the HPCSA guidelines closely, and may also be used to prepare for the HPCSA board exam. It is also relevant for professional development programmes for psychometrists, as well as being of interest to counselling, educational, industrial and clinical psychologists.
