Essentials of Psychological Tele-Assessment delivers a primer on the current state of professional knowledge related to psychological tele-assessment, ranging from the ethical and empirical considerations to the practical applications of tele-assessment procedures.

This book includes discussion on a broad range of tests and measures, with information related to both the state of the empirical support for tele-tests and measures, with information related to both the state of the empirical support for tele-assessment utilizing them and the practical 'how-to' for administering, scoring and interpreting data that emerge from them. Additionally, frameworks for integrating the data that emerge from tele-assessment procedures are discussed. The book is applicable to those transitioning to tele-assessment practice and those training in a wide variety of training programs. Readers will also benefit from the inclusion of: Practical checklists and information about specific tests must be adapted to the realities of the tele-health environment. Information about how the results of tests should be interpreted differently to account for the tele-health environment. Case examples and studies to illustrate many of the challenges of working in tele-assessment Guidance on how to balance the limitations of the state of the empirical literature on the validity of tele-assessment with the real-world needs of clients.
