The Skill Basis of Psychological Testing.

Jenkinson, Jo

Psychological Test Bulletin, v4 n1 p5-11 May 1991

The issue of test user competency arises from the question of restrictions on the use of psychological tests. The only justifiable basis for restricting test use is one that reflects the skills and competencies of the user. Ultimately, only professional judgment determines whether a test is properly used.
