Psychometric Tests

Psychometric testing is one of the services offered at our clinic. The tests we administer separately for adults and for children and adolescents are as follows:

Psychological Tests Used for Adults

1. Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI): This is the world's most widely used test of adult psychopathology and personality. It is a 566-question inventory used to assess personality traits. There is no time limit. It can be administered in 1.5-2 hours. It provides information on areas such as psychological state, attitudes, personality disorders and social adjustment.
2. Rorschach Test: This test is administered to gain information about a person's mental state, emotions, thoughts and personality traits. The test helps clinicians understand the person and select the most appropriate treatment method.
