Abnormal PSYC 3300 Midterm Questions withCorrect Answers
Reliability in assessment Correct Answer-- Refers to the consistency of
the measurement
- Two components of reliability: 1. sensitivity (agreement regarding the
presence of a particular diagnosis) 2. specificity (agreement concerning
the absence of a particular diagnosis)
Validity in assessment Correct Answer-- Refers to whether the measure
fulfills its intended purpose
Types of assessment Correct Answer-1. Psychological assessment
2. Biological assessment
3. Neuropsychological assessments
Psychological assessment Correct Answer-- Psychological assessment
techniques are designed to determine cognitive, emotional, personality,
and behavioural factors in psychopathological functioning
- Includes: clinical interviews, psychological tests (personality and
intelligence), behavioural and cognitive assessment techniques
Psychological assessment: clinical interviews Correct Answer-- The
paradigm within which an interviewer operates influences the entire
interview process
- The interviewer pays attention to how the respondent answers
questions (what they are saying and what they choose not to answer)
,- Most clinicians empathize with their clients in an effort to draw them
out, to encourage them to elaborate on their concerns, and to examine
different facets of a problem
- Vary in structure it may either be structured vs unstructured
Psychological assessment: evidence-based assessment Correct Answer-
Evidence-based assessment selects assessment measures based on
extensive criteria including the reliability and validity of the measures
and reading level required
Psychological assessment: psychological tests Correct Answer--
Standardized procedures designed to measure a person's performance on
a particular task or to assess his or her personality, or thoughts, feelings,
and behaviour
- They may yield important information such as personality
characteristics or situational determinants of a person's problems (helps
to draw out personality)
Psychological assessment: personality inventories Correct Answer-- The
person is asked to complete a self-report questionnaire indicating
whether statements assessing habitual tendencies apply to him or her
- The best-known and most frequently used and research psychological
test in the United States is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality
Inventory (MMPI)
The origin of projective tests Correct Answer-- Derived from the
psychoanalytic paradigm (Freud)
,- Assumes that the respondent would be either unable or unwilling to
express his or her true feelings if asked directly
- The real purposes of a test are best left unclear to as to bypass the
defence mechanism of repression and get to the basic causes of distress
- The content of the person's responses was viewed as symbolic of
internal dynamics
Psychological assessment: intelligence tests Correct Answer-- Alfred
Binet, a French psychologists originally constructed mental tests to help
the Parisian school board predict which children were in need of special
schooling
- An intelligence test, often referred as an IQ (intelligence quotient) test,
is a standardized means of assessing a person's current mental abilities
Psychological assessment: behavioural and cognitive assessment
techniques Correct Answer-A cognitive-behavioural case formulation is:
- A provisional map of a person's presenting problems that describes the
territory of the problems and explains the processes that caused and
maintain the problem
- It includes a clinician's inferences about underlying processes that can
be tested as hypotheses
- It is used as the basis for planning interventions and evolves over time
as further information is discovered
Self report assessments Correct Answer-- Self-report questionnaires that
tap a wide range of cognitions such as: fear of negative evaluation, a
, tendency to think irrationally, a tendency to make negative inferences
about life experiences
- Some similar to the personality tests while others have a greater
situational focus than traditional questionnaires
Biological assessment: types of brain imaging Correct Answer-1.
Computerized axial tomography (CT scan)
2. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
3. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)
4. Positron emission tomography (PET scan)
Biological assessment: computerized axial tomography (CT scan)
Correct Answer-- A moving beam of X-rays passes into a horizontal
cross-section of the client's brain, scanning it through 360 degrees; the
moving X-ray detector on the other side measures the amount of
radioactivity that penetrates, thus detecting subtle differences in tissue
density
- The client's head is moved, and the machine scans another cross-
section of the brain (horizontal)
- Less elevated than an MRI
- More elevated than an X-ray
Biological assessment: magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) Correct
Answer-- Superior to the CT scan because it produces pictures of higher
quality and does not rely on even the small amount of radiation required
by a CT scan
