A member asked:
Do psychiatrists give or interpret psychological tests?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Psychological tests: can be given by psychiatrists but not as often as by clinical psychologists, who specialize in psychological assessment. Clinical psychologists use a wide variety of measurement instruments and may sub-specialize in neuropsych testing, personality assessment, intellectual assessment, etc. Peace and good health.
