Being familiar, in part, assists the individual in meeting the definition of being qualified to work these assignments. To be qualified for such assignments, an individual not only needs to know how to interpret the spoken\/signed word but also interpret the intended purpose of each protocol.<br \/>\nUnknowingly, an interpreter may give the answer to a test question in their interpretation or skew the response of the person being tested due to their interpretation. Handled inappropriately, a spelling test can become a sign vocabulary inventory or a test of immediate recall. Interpreting for assessment follow-up meetings where testing results are discussed can as stressful without an adequate information-base.<br \/>\nParticipants will learn how to overcome these barriers through a round robin exposure technique. Several commonly used testing instruments will be presented and discussed during this hands-on presentation. These include:<br \/>\n-Bender-Gestalt Test,<br \/>\n-House-Tree-Person (HTP) Test,<br \/>\n-Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS), and<br \/>\n-Thematic Apperception Test (TAT)<br \/>\nDiscussion will also cover vocabulary standards in testing, measurement and statistics. Information about the Diagnostic and Standards Manual (DSM \u2013 V), used in diagnostic\/evaluation reporting, will also be included.<br \/>\nLearner Outcomes:<br \/>\nDuring the 4.5 hour workshop, participants will:<br \/>\nbecome familiar with what some standards testing material are designed to assess,<br \/>\nbecome familiar with some standard testing protocol used in assessments, and<br \/>\nbecome familiar with approaches in working with diagnosticians, psychologists and assessment assistants who are not cognizant with test and measurements of persons who do not have full access to incidental learning.<br \/>\nDoug H.
