Mental Health Screening and Assessments - Psychometrics

Preamble

Psychometrics refers to an area of practice as well as of the design and interpretation of psychological tests. Their aim is to evaluate, assess, confirm, and/or diagnose Neuropsychiatric, Intellectual, Personality, Psychological, and other status, or conditions. These other status may include, though is not limited to questions about knowledge, education, aptitude, ability, memory, happiness, coordination, etc.
Though in use by many professions, as well as business enterprises, they primarily fall under the categories of Mental Health and Education.

Please note that our Psychometrics section includes more than 200 tests and as such, a thorough presentation will be rather tedious and extensive. In the interest of brevity, we will only list the names of tests and instruments relevant to 'diagnostics'
