Psychological testing, also known as psychological assessment or evaluation, is a comprehensive process that uses standardized tools to measure various aspects of a person’s cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning. Tests are tailored to everyone’s needs and may include assessments of:
-
Cognitive Ability: Understanding intellectual strengths and areas for growth.
-
