Assessment Critique 2

For this assessment critique, select and critique a Personality Assessment. You must research and find these resources in order to do Assessment Critique 2.

The critique should include (at a minimum):

1. An overview of the population for which it was designed to be used.
2. A thorough description of the instrument to include number of questions, time for administration, administration procedures, scoring procedures, and interpretation of scores.
3. Reliability and Validity information.
4. Specific use(s) of the instrument.
5. Cultural consideration.
6. Ethical considerations.
7. Recommendations for use and/or improvement of the assessment.
8. Anything else you want to say regarding the instrument.
9. Remember to include a reference page with an APA 7th edition styled reference.

To make this as beneficial as possible, without requiring you to spend a great deal of time looking through the many personality assessments, I have compiled a short list, of instruments, that have been well-researched. You may select from one of the following to investigate:

Big Five Personality Test

*Hint: For information related to the Big Five Personality Test, research the Big Five Personality test or the NEO-PI-R.
