Abstract Beyond the basic information provided in foundation texts and test manuals, there is a notable scarcity of professional literature addressing complex issues and dilemmas in assessment. At times, psychologists need to make decisions based on their professional experience or personal preferences, and it is possible that some of these decisions are made without adequate justification or reflection. Intern psychologists may be confused by the differing advice they are given by university staff, supervisors and experienced practitioners. Our aim in this project was to identify specific issues in psychoeducational assessment that need clarity, guidance and reflection, not only during postgraduate training, but also across the professional lifespan. Focus groups with educational and developmental psychology interns revealed confusion about aspects of test administration and interpretation, as well as a number of challenging professional issues. The findings have implications for trainers and supervisors, as well as for experienced practitioners.

“这比我预期的要棘手得多”:实习心理学家的评估问题和困境

摘要 除了基础文本和测试手册中提供的基本信息之外,处理评估中复杂问题和困境的专业文献也非常稀缺。有时,心理学家需要根据他们的专业经验或个人喜好做出决定,其中一些决定可能是在没有充分理由或反思的情况下做出的。实习心理学家可能会对大学工作人员、主管和经验丰富的从业者提供的不同建议感到困惑。我们在这个项目中的目标是确定心理教育评估中需要明确、指导和反思的具体问题,不仅在研究生培训期间,而且在整个职业生涯中。由教育和发展心理学实习生组成的焦点小组揭示了对考试管理和解释方面的困惑,以及一些具有挑战性的专业问题。研究结果对培训师和主管以及经验丰富的从业者都有影响。
