Psychological testing refers to the act of subjecting to experimental tests to see how psychology really works. Psychological assessment refers to the classification of psychology after it has undergone some tests.
The German Psychotest can typically be taken at psychological assessment centers, mental health clinics, or by a licensed psychologist or psychiatrist who specializes in administering and interpreting psychological tests.
The CPT code commonly used for psychological testing is 96130 (Psychological testing evaluation services by a psychologist or physician, per hour of the psychologist's or physician's time, both face-to-face time administering tests to the patient and time interpreting these test results and preparing the report).
The American Psychological Association advocates for psychological testing principles that promote fairness, validity, reliability, and utility. This includes ensuring that tests are administered in a consistent manner, are culturally sensitive, and appropriately interpreted. Additionally, test results should be used to inform decisions that benefit the individual being assessed.
Psychological testing is important to many areas of the field of psychology. First of all psychological testing helps in placement decisions, treatment planning, diagnosing and so forth. So what is psychological testing? Psychological testing is comprised of tests such as intelligence test such as the WAIS-IV (Wechsler Adult Intelligence Test-Fourth Edition) and the WISC-IV (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Fourth Edition) and other tests that are considered culturally fair or those with special disabilities or considered to be a special population (Groth-Marnat, 2003). Other psychological testing includes those tests that help identify if there are any personality patterns that may be of interest to a treating clinician or perhaps for employment. Such tests of personality are the MMPI-II (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory) or the Beck Depression Inventory that helps identify if a person is suffering from depression and if so what level of depression (Groth-Marnat). All this information is useful; however, it is not intended to be used as a sole method of evaluation. Psychological testing is but one mere component of gathering data to form a clinical picture of the person being tested/evaluated. The clinical interviews, interview with family/friends/teachers, medical records, behavior records and so on all help to decide what can be derived from each of these tests that is in the best interest of the client (Sattler & Hodge, 2006). After all psychological testing, therapy and so forth is all supposed to be done with high ethical standards and with the best interest of the client in mind at all times (Fisher, 2003).References Fisher, C.

Psycho-educational testing is a subset of psychological testing. Psychological testing may include assessment of intellectual functioning, achievement, learning disorders, personality, vocational aptitude and interest, and behaviors associated with neurological impairment. Usually, psycho-educational testing is an assessment that is focused on educational performance and that includes tests that measure intellectual functioning, perceptual-motor development, academic achievement, and personality screening with the goal of determining if the student has a learning disability and/or qualifies for special education services. This type of testing is provided by the public school system and also by private psychologists and, in some states, other mental health professionals, such as licensed professional counselors.
