(Zoom link will be emailed to registered participants.)
Intended Audience: School psychologists, Educationally Related Mental Health Services (ERMHS) assessors(This is an advanced training for individuals who already have a foundational skillset in social-emotional projective measures)
Description: Projective assessment measures can provide invaluable information regarding the social-emotional wellbeing of our students. These testing techniques offer youth an outlet to provide their own responses and additional information related to their internal processes. The measures go beyond "forced choice" responses on self-rating scales and that which can typically be obtained through behavioral observations. This training will review some of the more commonly used projective measures, and serve as a "refresher and update" for those who have had more exposure to these techniques during their graduate studies. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions pertaining to theory, research, and interpretation. Participants are encouraged to bring their own data, and case studies will be utilized to support skill acquisition.
Participants Will:
Learn theory relevant to the utilization of projective measures
Identify projective measures they can add to their social-emotional or ERMHS assessments
Refresh their skill set as it relates to projective assessment measures
