Application Assignment: Summarize the presenting problem of the virtual client and create a hypothesis
In this week’s Assignment, apply your knowledge of test selection and evaluation to personality assessment. You select a personality test that might be appropriate for your virtual client based on the presenting information. In addition, you practice integrating the hypothetical results of a personality test to increase your understanding of the particular dynamics of your client and his or her presenting problem.
