Hi all,
I am in the process of applying for pre-doctoral internship. I have a question about the requirements for some of the sites. Many are asking for a full psychodiagnostic intake and assessment report that includes "intellectual and objective and/or projective testing." I have done a lot of assessments through my school clinic with objective and projective testing as well as neuropsychological assessments during my practicum that include intellectual testing but these were not full batteries. My best psychodiagnostic assessment, including a full history, includes projective and objective but not intellectual. This sample, written about one of my long-term clients, has the R-PAS, PAI, NEO-Five Factor, Sentence Completion, SCL-90-R and the Bender. (Not sure if the Bender counts as an intellectual assessment?). I'm wondering if it's worth emailing the sites and asking if they will still accept my application? Or I could submit a straight neuropsych assessment for medical patients that includes intellectual and objective (e.g., PAI) but without a psychodiagnostic history. Thoughts? Thanks!
