Ethics of Assessment in the age of COVID, 2 CE
Presented by Margaret Lanca, Ph.D ., Jean Deters, Psy.D., Maggie Wright, Psy.D., & Byron White, Psy.D.
Workshop Description:
Psychological testing via telehealth is not a new phenomenon, but its u
sage has been much more in demand since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic,
when face-to-face evaluations were either strictly limited or deemed to be
out of the question. The psychologist is faced with a series of questions
to consider: Is it appropriate to do psychological testing via telehealth
in this situation? Should testing be delayed until it can be done face-to
-face? If done remotely, how should the testing be done? What kinds of ac
commodations of test materials and administration should be incorporated?
What guidance is provided by the test publishers? How do these modificatio
ns affect the validity and reliability of results? The workshop will provi
de guidance and resources to help psychologists answer these questions.
