Psychoeducational Assessment
The purpose is to identify strengths and weaknesses of the student. This information may be used for proper placement (gifted, special education) or accommodations.
The structure of the assessment varies according to the student and the referral question. Standardized administered intellectual, academic, and memory testing are frequently required by school boards and standardized test boards (ETS) when taking standardized tests (e.g. ACT, SAT, GRE, LSAT, MCAT, Bar Exam, COMPLEX). The American Disability Act recognizes that students with documented learning disabilities are allowed accommodations. The Educational Testing Service requires evaluation by a trained psychologist specializing in neuropsychology.
Some accommodations include:
•Extra time
•Quiet environment
•Essay only or no essay
•Not computer administered
•Orally presented
•Scribe assistance
•Broken up in parts
Psychoeducational testing may be required for students being considered for gifted instruction.
