provide an evaluation of the contents of both psychological evaluations in terms of ethical standards and the professionalism of the interpretation of the testing and assessment data presented.

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read Chapters 8 and 9 in the textbook and carefully review Section 4 of Chapter 7 in the U.S. Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration (2006) guide, Testing and Assessment: A Guide to Good Practices for Workforce Investment Professionals (Links to an external site.). In addition, review all the required articles for this week, as well as the MMPI-3 Case Description: Mr. J – Interpretive Report  Download MMPI-3 Case Description: Mr. J – Interpretive Reportand the PSY640 Week Four Psychological Assessment Report  Download PSY640 Week Four Psychological Assessment Report.

For this discussion, you will take on the role of a psychologist who was recently assigned two new clients. You will examine psychological assessment information presented in two different formats: a computer generated interpretative report of personality test results for the patient Mr. J and a psychological report written by a licensed psychologist for the patient Ms. S. In your initial post, you will examine the personality assessment instruments used in each report.

Carefully review the MMPI-3 Case Description: Mr. J – Interpretive Report  Download MMPI-3 Case Description: Mr. J – Interpretive Report; this patient was referred to you at a community mental health center after he was discharged from at a crisis stabilization unit. Write a one-paragraph summary of the computer generated MMPI-3 results for Mr. J based on the information in the interpretive report. Note: Your summary should primarily present test results, not the background information on Mr. J’s case.

In your role as the psychologist who evaluated Ms. S., examine the personality and ability testing results in the PSY640 Week Four Psychological Assessment Report  Download PSY640 Week Four Psychological Assessment Report. In your next meeting with Ms. S, you will be required to give her a copy of the psychological assessment report and discuss the results with her by explaining the psychological concepts effectively observing appropriate professional standards. In order to share this discussion with your colleagues, you will create a video of a three- to five-minute assessment feedback session. Begin with a 1-2 sentence summary of the reason the client was referred for testing and devote the remainder of the time summarizing the test results, diagnoses and recommendations. Do not repeat history information about the client in the assessment feedback session. Be sure to report and summarize the most important information from the psychological testing in language your client can understand. You may use any software you choose to create your video. Quick-Start Guides are available for Screencast-O-Matic (Links to an external site.) for your convenience. You may also record the video on your phone or computer and upload it into a site such as YouTube. Once you have created your video, include the link in your initial post.

In your initial post, provide an evaluation of the contents of both psychological evaluations in terms of ethical standards and the professionalism of the interpretation of the testing and assessment data presented. Write an analysis of the psychometric methodologies employed in the development and validation of the MMPI-3 personality test used with both clients. Develop a list of at least two additional tests of personality or emotional functioning to administer to the two clients that demonstrate acceptable validity. Justify your inclusion of each additional assessment measure in terms of the validity of the assessment measure and your clients’ presenting concerns, diagnosis, and prognosis.

Note: It is common for there to be a delay between the time a test publisher updates a test and the time the textbook and other authors can update their information about the new version of the test. Be sure to do online research to make sure you are recommending the most current version of the test. If there is a newer version than the version discussed in the textbook or other readings, recommend the newest version.

Describe the impact of social and culture variability on the administration and interpretation of projective tests.

Projective Personality Assesment

• Define the term projective in projective methods of personality assessment.
• Summarize the features of projective methods of personality assessment, and provide at least three examples of these types of measures.
• Explain the assumptions on which projective methods are based, and provide an analysis of empirical research testing the validity of the assumptions you identified.
• Appraise the research exploring the technical adequacy (i.e., reliability and validity) of projective tests.
• Describe the impact of social and culture variability on the administration and interpretation of projective tests.

Section 3: Synthesis, Conclusions, and Recommendations

• Write a brief one-paragraph scenario for a fictitious client. Include the following information: presenting concerns (reason for referral), age, gender, ethnicity, language(s), and any other significant information (e.g., military status, health issues, marital status, sexual orientation, etc.).
• Debate the arguments supporting and opposing the use of projective and objective personality assessments with your identified client.
• Select a minimum of one objective and one projective measure to use with your client. Compare the use of the selected projective and objective personality measures with your identified client. Note: It is common for there to be a delay between the time a test publisher updates a test and the time the textbook and other authors can update their information about the new version of the test. Be sure to do online research to make sure you are recommending the most current version of the tests. If there is a newer version than the version discussed in the textbook or other readings, recommend the newest version.
• Analyze the advantages and limitations of each assessment measure you selected.
• Compose recommendations to improve the validity of personality assessment.

Define the term objective in objective methods of personality assessment.

Prior to beginning work on this assignment, review Chapters 8 and 9 in your textbook.

In this assignment, you will compare projective and objective methods of personality assessment. Research a minimum of three peer-reviewed articles in the University Campus Library that were published within the last 15 years on these techniques. In your paper, you will provide an evaluation of these techniques organized according to the outline provided below. Use information from your researched peer-reviewed articles and required sources to support your work in each section.

Section 1: Objective Personality Assesment

• Define the term objective in objective methods of personality assessment.
• Summarize the features of objective methods of personality assessment, and provide at least three examples of these types of measures.
• Explain the assumptions on which objective methods are based, and provide an analysis of empirical research testing the validity of the assumptions you identified.
• Appraise the research exploring the technical adequacy (i.e., reliability and validity) of objective tests.
• Describe the impact of social and culture variability on the administration and interpretation of objective tests.

Using the eight-step model of change, analyze which suggested strategies were employed and which were not.

Describe a change you have either participated in or observed in your organization. Using the eight-step model of change, analyze which suggested strategies were employed and which were not. Was the change sustained successfully? If yes. Why? If no, why not? What could have been done differently? 

(The change in my organization would be the recently imposed rounds every 15 mins where every staff on duty takes turns in doing patients rounds to ensure their safety. Thanks)

Based on your own research, select a digital tool or other appropriate strategy to create a classroom layout that includes spaces for developmentally appropriate whole group, small group, and individual activities.

Assessment Description

In early childhood classrooms, inclusion is often the practice. Inclusion of all students in early childhood settings means that teachers are aware of the main components of an inclusive classroom. Understanding how to plan for all students will help the teacher candidate be successful in meeting the needs of their classroom. Creating a developmentally appropriate, accessible classroom is important in inclusive settings.

Part 1

Select a grade level Pre-K to Grade 3. Imagine you are a new teacher who is designing a developmentally appropriate and easily accessible classroom. Based on your own research, select a digital tool or other appropriate strategy to create a classroom layout that includes spaces for developmentally appropriate whole group, small group, and individual activities. Be sure to consider young children’s needs, strengths, and interests as well as activities that will be done during the day and flow of the classroom during these activities.

Include the following in your classroom design:

• Furniture or equipment necessary for learning
• Learning and free play centers to support learning
• Technology resources to assist accommodation needs

Part 2

Along with the classroom plan, answer the following questions in a 500-750 word reflection:

1. How will you ensure accessibility for all of your students?
2. How will you maintain appropriate supervision over your entire classroom, even during centers and small group activities?
3. What challenges do you think you will have in maintaining this inclusive, accessible classroom? How will you meet these challenges?
4. How would you configure the physical classroom to accommodate students who are visually impaired?
5. How does your classroom design take into consideration young children’s needs, strengths, and interests?

Support your plan and reflection with 3-5 scholarly resources.
